Lighter Weight, yet strong enough for tough jobs
Skimlite's heavy duty poles are very popular for the service and commercial users looking for something that will last. Heavy duty poles are designed with a thinner wall tube to reduce the weight, yet able to still withstand tougher jobs. They are among the favorites due to the patented EliptiLock locking assembly. For the user who insists on extra locking, we offer the patented EliptiLock made with our external locks as well.
EliptiLock™ with its patened design builds the lock into the tubes. There are no parts to fall outor break! The outside tube is formed slightly out of round and the inside tube is equally out of round which creates the friction for the lock. The Eliptilock has become an industry favorite of many professionals and out sells any of our other poles.
Outside Lock has been an industry favorite since 1959and 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.
