Title: Will snap in half in the wind
Product review: I bought a Valley Forge 1" Cast Aluminum Multi-position Adjustable flag bracket. Two weeks later a rainstorm came along in the middle of the night, and the wind tore it right in half. I'm not talking about a tornado here, just a typical (though strong) wind/ rain storm.So on the 4th of July I bought a new one. On the 9th of July another storm (not even that bad, and only 10 minutes long) tore that one right in half.The weakness of this awful bracket is the thin layer of aluminum in between the adjustable bracket and the arm. When a flag gets wet it gets heavy, and when the wind blows it's going to put some pressure on the bracket. Cast aluminum is weak and snaps easily.I now have to shop for a whole new bracket, and I have screw holes through the new vinyl siding of my house due to removing the old one. DO NOT get cast aluminum flag brackets for use outdoors, and avoid adjustable. Look for STAINLESS STEEL brackets with at least four screw holes.
