Duraplus Pole Kit

G'day Cathie,

The Duraplus poles are a fibreglass shaft with a plastic wrap over the top to prevent them from splintering so I can't see it being a problem mixing them with standard fibreglass poles. The flex might be slightly different than your current poles but it's hard for me to say for certain whether this will cause any issues or not. We haven't had any negative feedback that I know of so I think you'll be fine. 

G'day Claire,

In order to make use of both pole tips with the poles provided in the kit, you'd need to trim one of the poles with a hacksaw. Make sure you use a new blade so the cut is nice and smooth. I also use a piece of electrical tape wrapped around the pole as a cutting guide and it also helps stop the pole from splitting at all as you cut. 

Hi Kat,

Sorry for the delay in response here. The Elite Villa has undergone a few changes over the years, but based on a little research in various user manuals (you can find them online), it looks like they all use 11mm poles. You'd have to buy a generic 11mm pole kit such as these Duraplus kits and either replace the broken sections or make up a new pole from scratch, they are not available as a complete part.

Once again, sorry for the delay in our response.

G’day Rod,

Oztrail currently has three Single Shower tents available which you can have a look at here. The Oztrail Pop Up Ensuite, and the XL Privacy Suite have a steel sprung frame so you can't use the Duraplus pole kit with either tent. 

The Oztrail Ensuite Dome features steel poles, so again this kit won’t be compatible with that toilet tent, unfortunately. 

G'day Ruth. Thanks for the question.

This particular pack includes 4 poles that when assembled stretch out to a maximum of 2.4 metres, with each section 65cm long. Inside the bag is Shock Cord which is threaded up through the poles to keep them tidy and together for when you pack them away. If you want to go longer again you can simply purchase a second kit and keep adding on to the length until you reach your desired length.

The poles are available in 6 sizes depending on your tent requirements, ranging from 6.9mm up to a whopping 12.5mm.

Cheers!
