Carbon Fiber Tent Poles

These tent poles are made from high quality wrapped carbon fiber tubing. The tubes are stiff and have a high strength to weight ratio making them ideal for ultra light tent poles.

Length:  22", 32", 48", and 52" lengths available.

22 inches (56 cm) = .6 ounces (17 grams)
32 inches (81.3 cm) = .95 ounces (27 grams)

Tent Pole Sack:

You can add a stuff sack to keep your poles organized and protect your tent fabric from the pole. The sack is made from black 1 oz/sqyd Cuben Fiber and is 2.5" wide by 14" long. Fold the top down over your tent poles and use the shock cord draw string to keep them snug like a rubber band. A longer, wider pole sack for other brand poles is also available on the stuff sacks page.
