Fiberglass TeleScoping Poles

12-meter/40-foot Telopole

Fiberglass
TeleScoping Poles

Designed for utility companies, these TeleScoping Poles are suitable for police, fire and rescue personnel to place climbing lines, cable ladders or other special use items or equipment in places up to 12 meters above ground (or sea) level. Made with high-strength fiberglass, a full size 12 meter pole weighs little more than 15 lbs.

The pole may be used with a variety of implements and hooks fastened to the top segment with a toothed-ring wing nut fitting. The standard fitting tool includes a hook and a straight pin designed for use with utility wires.

A variety of special tools are available including: universal tree pruner, teflon coated pruning saw, cresent skinning knife, 5x7 mirror, ball peen hammer head, vise grip head, paint brush, screw driver, light alloy hack saw, and various rachet wrenches.

Custom fitting tools or miniature electronic devices may be designed for possible use to fasten to the wing nut fitting, or in substitution of the final tube segment by special request.

See Tripod System for special use with 40-ft TeleScoping Poles.

Also available are poles designed for lamp bulb installation and removal, measurement sticks for accurate overhead measurements, as well as retriever poles for easy installation of wires and cables.

Maximum length of pole manageable by an individual with good physical strength is limited to 10 meters (30 feet)*. This is due to the nature of relative weight of the far end of the pole at distance. Beyond 10 meters is beyond the reasonable limits of an individual's personal strength and ability to control the hook-end of the pole.

When a pole extended more than 10 meters is to be used, it is required to have the assistance of additional persons and use of counterweight on pole base is recommended.

* Utilization Notes:

Maximum extension for use by an individual is 30-feet
Always extend small end segments first, only to the limit of extension needed at the time.
Always use care not to pinch fingers using button locks.
Extension of pole may bind as approaching full extension. This is reduced if top end is leaned against something such as a tree during vertical extension, or when horizontally extending if pole ends are held up by other persons.
Pole may be extended or collapsed either horizontally or vertically. Use care collapsing vertically not to let collapsing segments slam buttons or pinch fingers.
Horizontal extending and raising to vertical is difficult, always use care.
Lowering pole from vertical to horizontal is dangerous, always use great care and two persons: one holding the base and one walking down the length of the pole as it is lowered.
Pole will be damaged if crashed to ground (this is guaranteed and not covered by warranty).
Always use at least two persons to control a pole if using fully extended. Very Long Pole is impossible to raise from the ground when fully extended by an individual, therefore it will be impossible for an individual to control the pole if fully extended. It will crash to the ground.
Use of Counterweight at the Base of the pole helps improve control of any very long pole fully extended. Counterweights are strongly recommended for any pole 30-ft long or more.

WARNING

Pole strength and durability are unknown. However, manufacturer evaluations indicate impressive resistance to pole failure with nominal loads in hook end. Poles are capable of being raised and lowered from horizontal to vertical while fully extended, without danger of pole failure or excessive bending. See Utilization Notes above.

When a pole extended more than 30-feet (10 meters) is to be used, it is required to have the assistance of additional persons and use of counterweight on pole base is recommended.

DANGER

Not recommended for use in the vicinity of electrical power, power lines or any other potentially electrical environment without proper additional safeguards, precautions and special personnel safety training.
