Nylon Windsocks
The long-lasting, international orange nylon cloth is treated with a water repellent and UV inhibitor. The colorfast nylon is lightweight, responsive to the slightest wind, resists mildew, and won’t crack or peel. Every seam is double-stitched with weather-resistant nylon thread. A 400 lb. tensile strength webbing is added in the throat for reinforcement. Brass grommets are evenly spaced allowing for the standard lace-on or tie wrap method of attachment. Tie wraps are provided with every order.
