Frequently Asked Questions
Do the flags come with poles?
No, whip poles are sold separately. You can find black and white poles here: Whips
I want to convert my regular whip to a clip system. How do I do that?
It’s easy! Simply purchase one of our whip clip systems designed for your pole diameter to allow fast, secure flag changes. Whip systems come pre-assembled for easy installation.
I want to add a clip system to my lighted whip. How do I do that?
Buy our Rubber Lined Clips. The rubber protective lining prevents scratches and protects your LED whip lights from damage.
How do I attach a flag with grommets onto my whip?
You can zip-tie grommeted flags directly to your pole, but using a dedicated clip system is recommended for easier attachment, faster removal, and less wear on the sleeve.

Flags that slide over the pole include all necessary mounting hardware—including a zip tie and a metal clamp—for a quick setup. Proper installation ensures your safety flag remains secure and compliant with BLM OHV safety flag requirements:
Slide the Flag: Slide the flag sleeve directly over the top of your whip pole.
Find the Inner Strap: Locate the durable nylon strap stitched inside the flag sleeve.
Clamp and Fasten: Secure the nylon strap tightly to your pole using the included metal clamp and heavy-duty zip tie to keep the flag firmly locked in place during rides.
