When blasting operations demand deep boreholes or extended reach from the blast zone, this 10-foot length loading pole option is designed to answer that challenge. Each pole is made from 1¼″ diameter, straight-grain poplar hardwood—engineered specifically for dependable tamping and stemming of explosive charges in drill holes.
Why select a 10-foot pole?
The extended length gives your crew the ability to safely access deeper holes or work further from the blast face, reducing need for awkward extensions or ladders.
It maintains the same robust construction as shorter options—so you don’t sacrifice strength for length.
Ideal for larger scale jobsites where access may be limited and efficient reach means higher productivity.
Key features:
Straight-grain poplar hardwood ensures minimal flex and high durability under repeated stress.
1¼″ diameter, purpose-built for the explosives industry—not a thin pole disguised with heavy texture.
A wide array of end fittings: ball + rubber plug, connector + rubber plug, adaptor base, ball + socket, plain pole and more, allowing you to match the specific jobsite’s tamping system.
Shipping note: Because of the length, 10-foot poles often must ship via LTL freight rather than standard parcel.
What this means for your operation:
With the 10-foot length, you can reduce setup time and increase operator safety by avoiding extensions, ladders or awkward posture to reach deep holes.
The adaptable fitting options let you tailor the pole to your workflow—connect to retrievers, adjust plugs or swap heads without needing a completely different pole.
Long-term value: by deploying a properly built 10-foot pole with full-sized diameter and premium hardwood, you’re avoiding frequent replacements, downtime and potential safety risks.
