Smooth Flag Operation with a Reliable RTC-1 Truck System

The Eder RTC-1 Flagpole Truck provides dependable performance for external halyard flagpole systems. Specifically, it allows your flag to rotate freely with the wind, which helps reduce strain on the halyard and minimizes tangling. As a result, your flag displays properly while extending the life of your system.

---

Designed for External Halyard Flagpole Applications

This truck is engineered for external halyard flagpoles, where the rope runs along the outside of the pole. Therefore, it serves as the top-mounted component that guides and redirects the halyard during operation. In addition, the single pulley design supports one halyard line for standard single-flag setups.

Durable Cast Aluminum Construction with Smooth Rotation

Eder manufactures the RTC-1 truck from high-quality cast aluminum for long-term outdoor durability. Consequently, it resists corrosion while maintaining structural strength. At the same time, self-lubricating ball bearing assemblies ensure smooth and continuous rotation, even in changing wind conditions.

---

Precision Pulley Design for Reliable Halyard Performance

The RTC-1 features a cast nylon pulley with a 1½″ outside diameter, mounted on a 1/4″ stainless steel axle. As a result, it delivers smooth halyard movement while maintaining long-term durability. The system is designed to accommodate a maximum halyard diameter of 5/16″.

Fits Multiple Flagpole Diameters

Select the correct size based on your flagpole’s outside diameter:

• Fits 1⅜″ pole outside diameter
• Fits 2″ pole outside diameter
• Fits 2⅜″ pole outside diameter

Choosing the correct fit ensures proper installation and secure attachment.

Available Finish Options

Available in multiple finishes to match your flagpole and hardware:

• Silver
• Bronze #313

These finishes provide a clean, professional appearance across residential and commercial installations.

Secure Mounting and Spindle Compatibility

Each RTC-1 truck is designed for secure installation and long-term performance:

• Secured to the pole using three stainless steel set screws
  • 1/4″-20NC (for 1⅜″ and 2″ pole sizes)
  • 5/16″-18NC (for 2⅜″ pole size)
• Accepts 1/2″-13NC spindle threading for flagpole ornaments
• Ornament is secured with one 1/4″-20NC stainless steel set screw

As a result, the system provides a stable and reliable mounting solution for both the truck and ornament.

Ideal for Standard Single-Flag Applications

The RTC-1 truck is well suited for:

• Residential flagpoles
