What are the poles made out of? (Fiberglass?)

It seems to be some sort of flexible metal that telescopes together for storage

I believe it's fiberglass. I don't know if it's been treated. Sorry. Maybe you can call the distributor?

Just received my bay window poles that I ordered September 10, 2015 From TentPole Tech. Both bay window poles for $35.88. These new poles are supposed to be a better fiberglass. Just happy to replace them.

They are metal...the whole skeleton of the tent are metal posts and very sturdy. All in all, it is a great value for the price. I love my tent.

I don't know if they are still making them with fiberglass, but the one I have is. What I did was wrapped the base with tape so my hand is never in contact with the material. This seems to work, as I have never had any problems.

I think it's molded plastic. It's definitely not fiberglass otherwise it would've been $300-$400 like Eames brand

Holly G., the poles were a kind of beige color. Hope that helps. Stephanie M.

The snow shoes came with two poles, but they are cheap. Lost the basket off one during the first time out.

From all that I have read, it is PA and TPR rubber, whatever they are. No mention of fiberglass at all.

They are made of nylon which is narrow but strong. We have been very happy with it.

I am re-answering the question as I just read someone said the pole was metal. It's is definitely NOT metal, but a hard plastic, as I just went out in the garage and looked at.

I believe that it's fiberglass. I bought it for my 11 year old who loves it. It's a great rod for the price. Nothing fancy...

They are plastic and not very stable even with the pins to hold th down. I have an English Springer Spaniel and the poles twist and move when he goes through.

I don't know what they are made of but DON'T BUY THEM! They are awful. When you step on them the edges curl up and trip you. They are really dangerous. This is one purchase (I bought 2 of them) that I truly regret.

I used that thing this last winter and do not remember what the pole was made of. It was sturdy and did not bend or break. The saw worked very well and I was well satisfied.

Hi Alan, you don't need your old poles - mine came with new poles that I just fastened to the old base frame. This has lasted really well so far, lots of heavy use and no damage. Cheers, Mark
