Title: Does anyone use a Predator pole?
Post by: paul mather on May 26, 2007, 09:24:14 am

If so, are they any good & what do you think this pole is made of?

Yes I know that's why I'm asking about them. The thing is he claims on his listing that it is ac arbon fibre pole,  but looking at the prices on the  Brodex website I seriously doubt that!

I spotted that as well, cant see it being CF but just pop the question to him I'm sure he will confirm either way

I've got a 25ft and 18ft (got the smaller one free). They seem fine so far, but only time will tell. Oh and the are glass fibre NOT carbon fibre.

Similarly bought a 25ft and got a 18ft for free, like any GF or CF poles, expect them to wear over a reasonably short period of time.  If you get 6 months out of them then that's not bad.

We got the 2 poles for about £200, together they should last about a year, works out at less than £5/week.

They are light, easy to use and have decent Vikan heads on (we got 10" sill brushes)

I got an 18' predator - fairly light and good value for the money - not a high quality pole but still very good with nice vikan head too. Use mine on all domestic work all day long no problems so far. :)

ive got a 25 foot and a free 18 foot too they seem all good so far with a nice alloy
end cap and neck piece if they last the year thats ok . To help them last a bit longer
i rub a bit silicon spray on them daily try it it does help
