What is the difference between a commercial and residential flag pole?

The main differences between commercial and residential flagpoles come down to their build, materials and design. Each is made with its own correlating grade of aluminum, residential grade for residential and commercial grade for commercial. This is the first difference between commercial grade being made with heavier and stronger aluminum and other metal alloys. The design of these typically sees most residential flagpoles with a single width throughout (some are tapered, such as this one) as well as coming in sections. Whereas commercial residential flagpoles tend to come as one solid piece and have thicker interior walls.
