This pole is made by an american company called IPC.

Very rigid and hard wearing for a modular pole.

Clever clamps and very solid. 50ft pole is 7.4kg.

it looks a good design and covered the downsides to modular poles imo, a  built in groove for the hose to clip into, a non round style clamp so it wont spin or come apart

We have both the ipc pole and the simpole at our unit,

The simpole is not in the same league as the ipc pole.

If any wants a simpole we have one available.

How does that weight compare with other Carbon poles both Modular and telescopic

buy it and regret it !Yes it does have some nice elements but the main one is missing!  the weight. the superlight or the emporium are far lighter and in my opinion this is the main ingredient.

What are those clamps called? I've never seen them before. Are they specific to this brand of pole?
