Accuformnmc WS18 Wind Sock 18 in Inlet 96 in Orange

Product Description

The ACCUFORMNMC WS18 is a vinyl coated fabric wind sock designed to provide clear, at-a-glance wind direction and approximate speed indication at job sites, airfields, industrial facilities, and outdoor work areas. The sock measures 18 inches at the inlet diameter and extends 96 inches in length, giving it strong visual presence from a distance. The bright orange color maximizes contrast against most backgrounds, making it easy to read under varying light conditions. Safety managers, site supervisors, and field crews rely on wind socks like this one to support safe equipment operation and hazard awareness outdoors.

This wind sock is suited for use at construction sites, chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, airports, helipads, and other locations where wind conditions must be monitored continuously. The vinyl coated fabric construction holds up to outdoor exposure and resists tearing under sustained airflow. It is intended for installation on a standard wind sock mast or mounting pole and is sold as the sock only, without a frame or pole.

Key Features

• 18 inch inlet diameter for wide-mouth airflow capture and clear directional reading
• 96 inch overall length provides high visibility from distance
• Bright orange vinyl coated fabric construction for durability and color retention
• Lightweight at 1.2 pounds for easy handling and installation

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or standalone wind sock for use with standard wind sock mast systems and mounting rings that accept an 18 inch inlet diameter sock.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by safety personnel or maintenance crews following site safety equipment guidelines. Power tools are not required. Ensure the mounting mast or pole is secure and rated for outdoor wind loads before attaching the sock. Inspect attachment hardware and the sock fabric periodically for wear or UV degradation.
