American Flag Materials
100% Made in the USA!

Nylon
American flag
This heavyweight Dupont nylon is the most versatile and longest lasting nylon fabric available. It's combination of strength and brilliant display, along with its quick-drying ability, make it suitable for a wide range of applications. Great in rainy areas, its lightweight and close weave enable it to fly in the slightest breeze, giving it the fullest visual effect.
2-Ply Polyester
American flag
100% spun polyester. Woven construction utilizing a 2-ply spun polyester thread for extra strength. Combining durability, strength, and quality appearance, with a rich feel and look. These are ideal for extreme weather conditions without the excess weight. Ideal for high wind areas, and for daily flying.
Cotton
American flag
A traditional, natural fiber bunting made of heavyweight 2 ply mercerized cotton. It combines extremely rich, vibrant, long-lasting colors, and good wearing quality for excellent overall appearance and value.

American Flag construction features

We exceed US government specifications for material and workmanship. Unlike others we use superior bonded nylon thread for extra strength.  100% Made in the USA.
Remember that old strand of Christmas lights? The kind that when 1 bulb goes out, they all go out? It's the same way with many American Flags and how they are stitched! If you purchase a flag with chain stitching, as soon as 1 single thread breaks the whole stripe will come completely apart! You've probably seen them on neighbors houses right? Well, our outdoor flags will NOT do that! Ours have lock stitching not only on the fly end, but also on EVERY STRIPE and around the canton (star field). Rest assured that no matter what material you choose, when you shop with Gettysburg Flag Works, you are getting the very best American flag!
American Flag Grommet
Polyester canvas heading with #2 solid brass rolled rim tooth grommets on 3x5' through 6x10' flags.
American Flag stripes
Fly end hem reinforced by four needle lock stitching. Fly corners on larger ones are box stitched for extra durability.
American Flag Thimble
Nylon rope through canvas heading on 8x12' and larger. Galvanized metal thimbles protect rope ends.
American Flag Stars
Embroidered stars on all USA Flags shown here on sizes , 2x3' through 12x18.'

What is the lifespan of a flag?

A flag's life span is impossible to predict; it is like predicting
the weather. The major enemies of a flag are wind, sun and
carelessness...the single greatest cause of flag deterioration.
No one can control the weather, but you can take care of
your flag and lengthen its life by doing the following:

Occasional washing in warm mild detergent;
Let your flag dry thoroughly before storing it;
Have your flag repaired at the first sign of fraying;
Take your flag down at night and during bad weather.

Our flags are manufactured to give maximum service in return for
reasonable care and prudent use. Remember, no two flags receive
identical wear. The best way to stretch your "flag dollar" is to
have three flags: one flying, one in the wash, and one clean one in
storage for special occasions.
