Windsock – Wind Direction Indicator ( 7 FT )
Improve wind awareness and outdoor safety with a Windsock, designed to provide a clear visual indication of wind direction and approximate wind intensity. Its cone-shaped fabric design responds to moving air, allowing users to observe changing wind conditions from a distance.
Windsocks are widely used in aviation, industrial operations, construction sites, chemical handling areas and other locations where wind direction is an important safety consideration. They can help personnel assess wind conditions when planning outdoor activities or working in areas where airborne dust, fumes or vapours may be a concern.
Designed for outdoor visibility, a Windsock can be installed on a suitable pole or mounting system in an unobstructed location. The fabric, colour, dimensions and mounting arrangement depend on the selected model.
