For more details, see our Bannerware page and related guides.
What comes in a typical banner hardware kit?
Standard kits include upper and lower Fibreflex® Brackets (arms), mounting plates, and fasteners.
Permanent installations often use stainless BAND-IT style banding (sold separately) for pole attachment.
See Bannerware for options.
Are Fibreflex® Brackets compatible with different pole sizes?
Yes. Fibreflex® Brackets work with common streetlight and utility pole diameters.
Choose the correct banding length and width for your pole size and follow torque guidelines.
Refer to our hardware specifications for sizing notes.
How do I permanently install brackets with a BAND-IT tool?
For permanent installs, use stainless banding and a BAND-IT banding tool to tension and lock the bands around the pole, then trim tails.
Watch the how-to video on our Bannerware page (BAND-IT tool video) for step-by-step guidance.
How do wind and weather affect hardware selection?
Wind exposure and banner size influence arm length, bracket selection, and recommended banding.
Use spring-loaded or flexible Fibreflex® arms to help shed wind loads and extend hardware life.
See our Banners for sizing considerations.
What maintenance do banner brackets need?
Inspect bands, buckles, and arms each season; re-tension or replace worn parts.
Clean hardware when changing banners and verify safety stops and end caps are intact.
