Every weathervane from Vulcan Supply Corp. is designed for long term, maintenance free service. These are durable, hand made custom weathervanes which incorporate many years of study of existing historic weathervanes into a trouble free design. Our observations of the failures of the existing weathervanes that customers have brought to us over the years are what make these weathervanes so reliable. We use a solid brass shaft with a stainless steel ball bearing for smooth movement, all lock bolted to an interior collar tie. The shaft is completely enclosed by copper tubing, sealed against water infiltration, and has an attached base flashing in copper. The weathervane slides onto the shaft and is secured by a soldered copper coupling. The weathervane tube is shipped pre-
lubricated.
Complete installation instructions are provided with each order.
Cardinal points, fabricated from .080 inch copper, are available as an option.
All weathervanes are flat profile unless specified as "full bodied." Weathervanes are available in .080 inch bright copper, .080 inch lead coated copper, and .080 inch brass plate.
Please specify roof slope and cross section -- square, cone, hexagon, or octagon.
