Hose less pole conversation

I have been meaning to put up a post that hopefully will be useful for ones wanting to convert their poles this is how I do it it’s cheap, simple to do and works a treat , costs less than £5 per pole and takes about 15-30 muinits to do . This method will work on most Gardiner poles apart from the ultimate , but you do need to check how the sections nest inside the handle section , if section one is up higher than the other sections it will be more fiddly , the pictures below hopefully are self explanatory this is an extream 22 foot pole . You will need the exceed Inovation ejected sleeve but the white fittings to make the bung in the end of the pole are hose inserts that can be bought very cheaply from most plumbers or farm shops

I wonder if @Gavin should put this in the resources section?
Great conversion, thanks.

Great idea Paul @Pjj
I can get my son to bring me some back from work tomorrow
I’m pretty sure the first will be 19 or 22 mm

I have some rubber tubing I can dig out that would probably make a perfect ejector sleeve also

Looks like too much faff, I just chop the pole hose leaving a 6-10" tail out of the bottom of the pole and put a male rectus fitting on the end of the pole hose job done

I found that it caught every time you extended the pole and would also disconnect, it’s only 10-30 muinits to convert it so don’t feel that’s a lot for 2-3 years daily usage .
