The proprietary manufacturing process used for this Carbon Fiber pole warrants it as the strongest pole in the industry. When fully extended with heavy weight on the end this pole still has virtually no bend. This pole is ideal for anyone who uses an industrial vac system, or is looking for a stronger and lighter pole than the industry standards. 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.
