Extension poles, also known as telescopic poles, extend the user's range of movement and allow tasks to be performed that would not normally be possible without the use of a ladder. Extension poles are often used for tasks such as cleaning, painting and trimming.

Some telescopic poles are designed with athletes in mind and are sized to suit the height of the individual and are also compact enough to fit in a suitcase or backpack. These are for use by hikers, paddlers, snowboarders, skiers and fishermen. Telescopic poles are available in different sizes and materials, but most are made of metal or fibreglass.

As a professional telescopic pole manufacturer and supplier in China, Orientjohn Industry offers wholesale telescopic poles made of various materials, and we have been designing and manufacturing telescopic poles. We offer telescopic poles made of electric, fiberglass, carbon fiber, or aluminum telescopic poles. Each material has its own advantages, making our telescopic poles perfect for a variety of jobs. More choices mean no project is left without our solution.

We offer telescopic poles in a variety of sizes, materials and applications. For example, we have telescopic garden tools made of aluminum and carbon fiber, ranging in size from 10 feet to 60 feet, providing you with a variety of options when choosing a telescopic inspection pole. We also have water-fed pole system window cleaning brush, and solar panel cleaning brush, which are commonly used by cleaners Instead of ladders, you can speed up their workflow. These poles come with specialized tubing to deliver water to the brush for easier and more efficient cleaning.

Using a ladder to do odd jobs inside or outside the house can be inconvenient. Instead, you can use a telescopic pole or extension pole. It is very easy to use an extension pole for tasks such as painting, cleaning and trimming. You can also buy telescopic poles whose length can be adjusted to the user's height.

They are compact in size and you can easily fit them in your rucksack or suitcase. They are particularly helpful for paddlers, hikers, skiers, snowboarders and fishermen. You can find these in different sizes. Although most of them are made of fibreglass or metal, it is possible to use other materials to make them.

Daily chores can be done more easily with a telescopic pole. By attaching a mop with one of these poles you can easily approach difficult parts of the ceiling for cleaning. You can also use it effectively to clean windows by attaching a brush to them and then removing residual soap by attaching a squeegee. All this can be done without using any ladders.

Telescopic poles are also used for many outdoor leisure activities. For example, it is common to use such poles to install tents and awnings. Fishermen find that using telescopic fishing poles helps to reach difficult areas. Similarly, boaters can manoeuvre their boats by pushing them hard in areas where the water is shallow and they cannot use engines or oars.

In many places, the traditional flagpole arrangement of using ropes, pulleys and chains to lower or raise flags is being replaced by easier to use telescopic poles that can get the job done faster. Extension poles also make cleaning poultry sheds very easy and quick. You'll agree that telescoping poles, whether used for work or play, make life easier!

The Aluminum vs. Carbon Water Fed Pole: Determining which Tool is the Best Pole for the Job

Window cleaning professionals globally would agree that the introduction of water fed cleaning poles has significantly changed the industry, especially in terms of enhancing worker safety. Namely, waterfed poles provide a safer method for reaching high access windows and glass, undoubtedly reducing the occurrence of falls and ladder-related injuries.

With the benefits of using a water fed pole system clear, manufacturers continue to develop the latest innovations designed to make these poles outperform their predecessors, making the decision as to which type of pole is best harder to identify. To help select which pole is right for you and/or your facility’s outdoor window cleaning needs, you’ll need to consider a handful of key factors, such as brand reputation quality and product differentiators, especially when it comes to an aluminum vs. carbon water fed poles.

What to Consider When Buying a Water Fed Pole

The obvious benefit of water fed poles is that they keep the window cleaner’s feet planted firmly on the ground, but that’s not to say that water fed pole usage doesn’t come without its physical risks. Wrist pain, numbness of fingers, elbow pain, shoulder pain, upper and lower back pain, neck pain and tension headaches are all potential risks from regular extended usage. Minimizing these risks has a lot to do with the pole’s design, so you’ll need to evaluate the following:

• Flex
  Flex (or rigidity) refers to how much flexibility is displayed by the pole when force is applied. In general, the less rigid a pole is, the floppier it is at extended heights and the more difficult it is to handle.
• Weight
  Add in the inertia of a heavier pole, and the amount of effort required to complete the job increases significantly. From an ergonomic perspective, with a higher stiffness-to-weight ratio the operator can complete the work more efficiently and with the least amount of effort, ultimately reducing the risk of repetitive motion injury.
• Price
  Telescopic water fed poles are available in a variety of materials, lengths and price points. When evaluating costs, not only should you consider the upfront purchase cost, but also the longer term, indirect costs of buying a pole based on price alone, such as missed days of work due to physical injury and the longevity of the pole’s material.

Comparing an Aluminum vs Carbon Water Fed Pole

Window cleaning poles are manufactured in a variety of materials, including HiMod®, Kevlar, and various hybrids of these materials, but the two most popular types of water fed poles we will analyze here are carbon and aluminum.

For many years, aluminum poles have been the industry standard given that they are durable, long lasting, and less expensive than other poles designed with alternative materials. Then came the carbon fiber water fed pole. Today, with a multitude of water fed poles on the market, it’s important to note that both aluminum and carbon window cleaning poles have their place in the professional window cleaning industry. Looking at the pros and cons of each option will help you determine which tool is best for your window cleaning jobs.

• Flex
  Aluminum has a strength of about 500 kilonewtons compared to carbon fiber which can have up to 1600 kilonewtons of strength. Simply put, carbon fiber is 2 – 5 times more rigid than aluminum.Looking at the aluminum pole, it flexes considerably when extended above 30 feet, which for the user, translates into increased exertion to complete the job. More effort means a greater likelihood of fatigue which in turn, could result in a longer time on-site. When you factor in high pressure water running through the pole, the flex of an aluminum pole becomes even more cumbersome and has a greater potential to cause injury to the operator and damage to the facility’s window and glass.
• Weight
  Carbon fiber composite has a density almost 2 times less than aluminum, meaning that carbon fiber reduces the weight of an aluminum pole of the same size by approximately 42%. Combined with its rigidity, carbon poles reduce the fatigue and risk of repetitive stress injuries. Because carbon poles minimize the effort needed to remove dirt and debris from windows and overall exertion to clean high access windows, professionals can finish jobs faster and with dramatically less physical strain.
• Price
  A carbon waterfed pole has a higher upfront cost than its aluminum counterpart.  Since they are more expensive, they are not always the best option for window cleaning at lower heights.

Making the Right Choice for Your Window Cleaning Operations

Carbon pole systems offer professional window cleaners an extremely light and rigid pole, making it ideal for safely and more efficiently cleaning high access windows and glass.  Alternatively, aluminum window cleaning poles provide a cost-effective value, and when compared to materials other than carbon, such as fiberglass, offer more rigidity and longevity. For cleaning lower-level windows where flex and weight are not as critical, aluminum poles can get the job done effectively.

Before making a pole selection, a product demonstration will assist you in assessing the pole’s flex, weight, ergonomics and maneuverability. Click here to request a demo of Unger’s latest Generation 2 nLITE® water fed pole system.

Regardless of which pole you enlist in your operations, safety remains a top priority. Other than pole selection, you can reference IWCA’s Water-fed Pole Safety Program for other important considerations and protocols.
