Telescopic Pole
A telescopic pole, also known as an extension pole or extendable pole. It is a versatile tool made up of multiple sections that slide into one another, allowing its length to be adjusted. This design makes them incredibly useful for reaching heights or distances that would otherwise be inaccessible or require ladders, scaffolding, or other elevated platforms.
How they work:
The sections of a telescopic pole are typically held in place by various locking mechanisms of twist locks. Sections are extended by twisting them until they lock into place. Those can be retracted by untwisting them till the inner section slides into the outer section. It is very easy to operate and the change of length can be achieved fast.
Pole Material:
Aluminum: It is lightweight but strong in composition. It has a good strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and affordability. The corrugation on the outer sections make it stronger and easy to grip. Aluminium is corrosion-resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use. It is used for Solar Panel, Window cleaning, painting, and general household cleaning tasks.
Applications of Telescopic poles :
Cleaning:
- Window Cleaning: Especially for high-rise windows, often paired with squeegees or brushes.
- Solar Panel Cleaning: Aluminium Telescopic Poles are used with water-fed brushes to clean panels safely and effectively.
- Dusting/Cobweb Removal: Reaching high ceilings, corners, and difficult-to-access areas indoors.
- Pool Cleaning: Attaching nets, brushes, or vacuum heads for cleaning swimming pools.
- Vehicle Washing: Cleaning large vehicles like trucks or RVs.
Maintenance & Construction:
- Painting: Extending paint rollers or brushes for high walls and ceilings.
- Roof Inspection/Maintenance: Checking gutters, removing debris, or inspecting roofs without climbing.
- Pruning/Gardening: Attaching saws or fruit pickers to trim branches or harvest fruit from tall trees.
- Light Bulb Changing: Safely replacing bulbs in high fixtures.
