Product Overview: 5m Drive-On Teardrop Flag (Single Sided)

The 5m Drive-On Teardrop Flag is the ultimate high-level branding tool for the automotive and industrial sectors. Standing five metres tall, it is designed to be seen from distance on fast-moving roads. Its specialized shape ensures your logo remains open, readable, and stable, even when positioned next to high-sided vehicles or in exposed locations.

Maximum Elevation

  • 5m height clears the roofline of almost all commercial vehicles, including trucks and combines
  • Ensures your brand is visible to drivers from hundreds of metres away
  • Ideal for marking the entrance to large industrial estates or outdoor events

Aerodynamic Efficiency

  • Taut fabric profile cuts through the wind, generating less drag than a standard 5m feather flag
  • Eliminates flapping noise, reducing wear on the fabric at high altitude
  • Maintains a rigid shape to display bold logos or roundels clearly at all times

Heavy-Duty Anchorage

For a flag of this size, stability is non-negotiable. The U-shaped steel base is designed to be parked on by a vehicle (car, van, or truck), utilising tonnes of static weight to secure the system against the elements.

The Cobolt Standard

  • Free UK Mainland Delivery: We absorb the high shipping costs of 5m hardware to give you the best value
  • Safety First: We select reinforced poles tested for the unique stresses of extra-large flags
  • Fast Turnaround: Quick production to get your forecourt branded without delay
  • Hardware Guarantee: Reliable components built for the motor trade

Where is this 5m Teardrop Flag used?

The 5m Drive-On Teardrop Flag is the professional specification for heavy industry. It is heavily specified for Truck & Bus Dealerships, Farm Machinery Shows, Construction Plant Hire, and Motorway Forecourts. Its height allows it to compete with permanent signage at a fraction of the cost.

Key Features

  • Skyline Height – 5000mm (5m) ensures visibility over double-decker buses and HGVs.
  • Drive-On Anchor – Uses the immense weight of the display vehicle for immovable security.
  • Complete XL Kit – Includes 5m glass fibre pole, drive-on foot, custom printed flag, and carry bag.
  • Single-Sided Print – Vibrant print with 95% show-through ensures visibility from both sides.
  • Taut Profile – Reduces wind load on the pole compared to loose fabric flags.
  • 360° Rotation – The spindle allows the flag to weather-vane, further reducing resistance.
  • Machine Washable – Graphics can be washed at 30°C to remove traffic film and industrial dust.
  • Portable Power – The massive pole breaks down into sections for transport in the included bag.

Cobolt Service & Ethos: Here to Make It Easy

  • Free Delivery (UK Mainland): Shipping 5m pole kits is expensive, but we cover it. The price is all-inclusive.
  • Print Expertise: We verify your artwork resolution to ensure your brand looks sharp at this massive scale.
  • Safety Advice: We provide clear guidance on wind speeds and usage to keep your site safe.
  • Complete Solution: One price for the pole, base, print, and bag. No surprises.

Built for Stability. Backed for Performance.

  • The drive-on base is the safest method for securing a 5m flag on a forecourt. It utilises the vehicle's weight (often 1.5 - 3 tonnes) to create an anchor far superior to water bases.
  • The pole is constructed from reinforced glass fibre. It is designed to be bent under high tension to form the teardrop shape, creating a rigid structure that resists deformation while flexing in gusts.
  • The printed flag material is B1 Fire Rated 115gsm knitted polyester, meeting strict health and safety standards for petrol stations and public venues.
  • The rotating spindle mechanism is crucial; it allows the flag to turn into the wind, presenting the smallest surface area to the gust and protecting the hardware.
  • We back the hardware components (pole and base) with a 1-year manufacturer's guarantee against mechanical failure.

The 5m Drive-On Teardrop Flag provides maximum visibility for large commercial vehicles. These specifications reflect its suitability for high-impact industrial and automotive display.

FAQs: The Best 5m Teardrop Flag for HGV Dealers

Q: Is delivery included in the price?

A: Yes, Free UK Mainland Delivery is included. Shipping 5m pole kits can be very expensive with other suppliers, but we cover the cost for you.

Q: Why choose the Teardrop shape at 5m?

A: At 5 metres, wind load is a major factor. The Teardrop shape is aerodynamic and held taut, meaning it catches less wind than a rectangular flag, making it safer and more stable at this height.

Q: Is it safe to use on a forecourt?

A: Yes, provided you use the included drive-on base with a vehicle. The weight of the vehicle anchors it securely. We recommend taking it down in winds over 29km/h.

Q: Why choose the 5m height?

A: 5m is necessary if you need visibility over the top of HGVs, trucks, or agricultural machinery, or if you want to attract attention from a motorway or dual carriageway.

Q: Is the print visible on both sides?

A: This is a single-sided flag. The design is printed on one side, but the fabric allows 95% of the image to bleed through, so it is clearly visible as a mirror image on the reverse.

Q: Can I change the graphic later?

A: Yes. You can buy replacement 5m fabric graphics from us and reuse the existing hardware, which is a great way to update your messaging for sales events.

Q: How do I supply artwork for such a large flag?

A: We provide a scaled template. Because of the size, high-resolution logos (vector files) are essential. Our team will check your files before printing to ensure quality.

Q: Why buy from Cobolt Furniture?

A: We specialise in B2B supply for the automotive and event sectors. We offer Free UK Mainland Delivery, expert artwork checks, and durable products designed for trade use.
