American Windsocks

A range of high quality, calibrated windsocks in UV resistant Dacron fabric.

All Windsocks are constructed from a new TRI-AD fabric. This fabric has Ultra Violet (UV) inhibitors and an aquathane coating to resist sunlight and acid rain. All seams are hot cut and the critical ones are double stitched.

The windsocks are calibrated in knots, so by observing the angle, the approximate wind velocity can be measured.

The fixing of this range of windsocks is simpler than other types and allows quick and easy servicing or replacement of the windsock. Details are shown below. The fixing requires a simple spike, drilled to accept a locking pin, to protrude up from the mast by about 2". The sock is then fixed to the mast as shown on the diagram. Airworld (UK) can supply a special fitting that screws into the end of a 3/4" pipe coupler.
