Windsocks Built to Survive Mining Environments
Mining sites demand equipment that can withstand extreme heat, UV, abrasive dust, and chemical exposure - while requiring minimal maintenance across remote locations. Our heavy-duty industrial Windsocks are engineered for exactly these conditions.
- ✓ Sunbrella acrylic fabric - the gold standard for UV and colour retention
- ✓ Available in high-visibility neon orange for dusty, low-visibility environments
- ✓ Anti-static options for explosive atmosphere areas (AS/NZS 1171)
- ✓ 304 Stainless Steel Frames with sealed bearings - built for years of service
- ✓ Counter-weighted Poles allow ground-level servicing - no working at heights
- ✓ Stock available in Perth for rapid despatch to remote sites
INDUSTRIAL MINING APPLICATIONS
Applications Across All Mining Operations
From surface operations to underground pit heads and processing plants - we supply Windsock assemblies for every area of a modern mine site.
Surface & Open Cut Mining
Hot, dusty, extreme UV environments demand tough products. Our Sunbrella and high-visibility neon range is ideal for surface operations, haul roads and crushing facilities.
View Surface Options ›Underground & Pit Head
Pit head and portal Windsock assemblies for ventilation monitoring. Heavy-duty galvanised and stainless construction for underground environments.
Contact for Quote ›Processing Plant & Chemical Areas
Anti-static Windsocks for areas with explosive atmospheres, chemical storage and processing areas. Carbon fibre thread eliminates electrostatic charge risk.
Anti-Static Range ›High-Visibility Neon Range for Dusty Sites
In dusty mining environments, standard orange-white Windsocks can be difficult to see. Our High-Visibility Neon Industrial range uses bright neon orange fabric that cuts through haze and dust - giving workers and equipment operators a clear, immediate wind direction reading from a distance.
- ✓ Bright neon orange fabric - highly visible through dust and haze
- ✓ Available in sizes from 900mm to 3000mm length
- ✓ WeatherMax80 or Sunbrella fabric options
- ✓ UV treated for extended outdoor life in harsh conditions
- ✓ Compatible with all standard Windsock Frames and assemblies
Anti-Static Windsocks for Explosive Atmospheres
Areas classified as explosive atmosphere zones require equipment that cannot generate or accumulate electrostatic charge. Our Anti-Static Oil & Gas Windsock range incorporates carbon fibre conductive thread woven through the fabric - providing continuous static dissipation in compliance with AS/NZS 1171.
- ✓ Carbon fibre conductive thread - continuous electrostatic dissipation
- ✓ Compliant with AS/NZS 1171 requirements for hazardous area equipment
- ✓ No metal spindle or components that could cause sparks
- ✓ Available in standard and high-visibility colourways
- ✓ Suitable for Zone 1 and Zone 2 classified areas
