Carbon Fiber Telescopic Pole
- Overview
- Recommended Products
Product Description
The CFP-Series is a high-performance, multi-section telescopic pole manufactured from high-modulus carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) . It is designed to provide an optimal balance of lightweight portability and high structural rigidity. The pole utilizes a [Twist Lock / Cam Lock] mechanism for secure extension and retraction.
Key Features
Lightweight: Significant weight reduction compared to aluminum or fiberglass alternatives.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Excellent axial load capacity and bending stiffness.
Corrosion Resistance: Impervious to rust and resistant to UV radiation, salt water, and most chemicals.
Low Thermal Conductivity: Remains comfortable to touch in extreme temperatures.
Non-Magnetic / RF Transparent: (Specify if applicable) Ideal for antenna mounting and sensitive electronic environments.
Material Composition
Main Tube: 100% Unidirectional (UD) and Woven Pre-preg Carbon Fiber (Toray/Synolite or equivalent T700/800 grade).
Resin System: High-temperature Epoxy Resin (TG > 120°C).
Locking Collars: Anodized 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy / Acetal Resin (POM).
End Caps / Tips: Impact-modified Nylon (PA6) or Stainless Steel 304 (Optional).

Surface Finish
Appearance: Glossy / Matte / Textured UV-resistant clear coat.
Color: Standard Carbon Black. Custom colors (Metallic, Camo) available via painted finish or colored pre-preg.
Pattern: 1x1, 2x2 Twill weave, or Unidirectional (UD).
Mechanical Performance (Guidelines)
Locking Force: Each locking mechanism withstands a minimum of [XX] kg of axial thrust without slipping.
Bending Stiffness: Maximum deflection at fully extended length: < [XX] mm under [XX] kg lateral load.
Cycle Testing: Sections have been tested for [XX] extension/retraction cycles with no loss of locking torque.
Application Guidelines
Recommended Use: Photography tripods, professional window cleaning, fruit harvesting, pool maintenance, visual inspection supports, portable antenna masts.
Limitations:
Electrical Conductivity: Carbon fiber is electrically conductive. Do not use near live high-voltage electrical lines unless the pole is specifically designated and tested as "electrically insulated" (typically requiring a fiberglass section or specific layup).
Impact: While strong, carbon fiber is brittle. Avoid sharp impacts or dropping heavy weights onto the pole, as this can cause cracks not visible to the naked eye.
