Whitecap Marine Flagpole Sockets and Teak Poles: Size Guide

A boat flagpole mount needs to suit the pole diameter, its mounting surface and the space available for the flag to fly. Whitecap offers stainless-steel and chrome-plated-brass mounting sockets, along with separate teak flagpoles. This guide compares exact part numbers without assuming that every pole fits every socket.

Three things to check before buying

Pole and socket fit

Check the intended socket opening and the actual diameter of the pole where it inserts. A listed socket dimension is not proof a particular teak staff will fit.

Mounting shape

Inspect the deck, rail or bulkhead and determine whether the existing socket is top-mounted, flush-mounted or angled. Match its bolt pattern and geometry.

Pole length and clearance

Decide whether an 18-inch or 24-inch teak flagpole fits the location without interfering with a canopy, windshield, seat or other equipment.

Important: The 1-inch and 1¼-inch dimensions below identify the listed socket-size families. They are not guaranteed pole-to-socket fitment for Whitecap's 60748 or 60750 teak poles. Measure the actual staff base, check the socket's usable bore and verify the exact manufacturer's mounting specifications before ordering a matched pair.

Whitecap socket and teak flagpole MPN chart

Five listings are socket mounts; two are standalone teak flagpoles. A pole is not included with a socket, and the teak flagpole listings do not include a mounting socket or flag.

Manufacturer part Item type Listed size Construction
6147C Stainless socket 1 in 316 stainless steel
6169C Stainless socket 1¼ in 316 stainless steel
6170C Stainless socket 1¼ in 316 stainless steel
S-5002C Brass socket 1 in Chrome-plated brass
S-5003C Brass socket 1¼ in Chrome-plated brass
60748 Teak flagpole 18 in long Teak wood
60750 Teak flagpole 24 in long Teak wood

Stainless-steel versus chrome-plated brass sockets

6147C: A 316 stainless-steel flagpole socket listed in the 1-inch size family.

6169C and 6170C: Separate 316 stainless-steel socket MPNs, both listed as 1¼-inch sizes. They should not be assumed to have identical mounting shape or screw-hole arrangements just because their nominal dimensions match.

S-5002C and S-5003C: Chrome-plated brass sockets listed at 1 inch and 1¼ inches respectively. Compare their finished mounting style to the existing fitting; brass and stainless versions are separate items.

How do the teak flagpoles differ?

60748: An 18-inch fixed-length teak flagpole, listed without a flag or socket.

60750: A 24-inch fixed-length teak flagpole, also supplied separately from the mount.

Length is the confirmed distinction between these two teak poles. Their listed height does not establish the required mounting-socket diameter. Compare the finished pole base and socket dimensions before pairing them.

Mounting and care

Choose a solid mounting surface that can support the pole and the movement of the flag in wind. Verify backing clearance, screw size and corrosion resistance, and use the maker's recommended fastening and sealing approach. If a socket is installed in a deck, make sure the connection is properly sealed against water ingress. Inspect teak poles for weathering and maintain the wood finish as appropriate.

Common questions

Is a 1¼-inch socket guaranteed to fit the 24-inch teak flagpole?

No. The socket size and flagpole length are different specifications. Confirm the diameter of the pole's mounting end and the socket bore before ordering a pair.

Are 6169C and 6170C the same part?

No. They are different Whitecap MPNs. Even when both are described with a nominal 1¼-inch size, verify the original mounting design and dimensions.

Do 60748 and 60750 include flags or sockets?

No. These listings are for separate teak poles of 18 and 24 inches. The flag and compatible mounting socket must be selected separately.
