This Super-Duty telescopic pool pole 5008 with Outside Lock has an overall length of 16 feet and will telescope down to 8 feet when not in use. It is manufactured from thick commercial-grade tubing right here in the U.S.A. by Skimlite Manufacturing. The 5008 pole was created in 1959 and was the first telescopic pole ever made for the pool industry. Owners love the ease of this external locking pole and its thick wall tubing.
The Outside Lock has been an industry favorite since 1959 and is made of the strongest plastics ever made. The nylon male fitting is pressed onto the outside tube with a ton of pressure, so it won’t fall off. The female and ferrule fittings are easily replaced when worn. The tubes are made of the strongest American made tubes in the industry.
This pole will work with all standard pool brushes, rakes, and vacuum heads. Skimlite takes pride in manufacturing high-end service and commercial poles that will hold up to everyday use and can be depended on in even the most demanding applications.
