Product details

The Skimlite 8016 is a two piece telescoping pool pole from the 8000 Fiberglass Series, extending from 8 feet to 16 feet with the Outside Lock system.

Why fiberglass

A nonmetal pole brings two advantages a pool professional cares about. It does not conduct electricity, and it does not transmit hot and cold temperatures, so a pole that has been sitting in the sun or lying in the cold is still comfortable to pick up.

The Outside Lock system

Outside Lock has been a Skimlite design since 1959 and is made of the strongest plastics available. The nylon male fitting is pressed onto the outside tube under a ton of pressure, so it will not fall off in use. The female and ferrule fittings are the parts that see wear, and both are easily replaced, which means a pole in daily service can be kept going rather than replaced outright.

Range

Two sections give a working range from 8 feet to 16 feet: short enough to be manageable for brushing close in, long enough to reach the far side of most residential pools. The pole is American made.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

How far does it extend?
From 8 feet closed to 16 feet fully extended, in two sections.
Why choose fiberglass over aluminum?
A nonmetal pole does not conduct electricity, and it does not carry hot and cold temperatures into your hands the way metal does.
What is the Outside Lock system?
It is the Skimlite locking design that has been in use since 1959, built from very strong plastics. The nylon male fitting is pressed onto the outside tube under heavy pressure so it stays put.
Can the fittings be replaced?
Yes. The female and ferrule fittings are easily replaced when they wear, so a worn pole does not have to be thrown away.
