5-Foot Length Loading Poles
When working in controlled blasting environments, precision, durability and control matter. This 5-foot length series of loading poles is engineered to deliver just that. Crafted from straight-grain poplar hardwood with a full 1 ¼″ diameter, these poles are designed specifically for the rigorous demands of tamping and stemming explosive charges in bore holes.
Available in multiple end configurations — such as plain, connector with rubber plug, adaptor base, male/female adaptor — this listing accommodates a wide range of field setups and requirements.
Why choose a 5-foot length?
Compact enough for tighter setups and manageable where space is constrained.
Long enough to give sufficient reach and leverage for effective tamping without excess swing.
Ideal for intermediate operations, auxiliary blasts or where full-length poles may be unwieldy.
Key features:
Straight-grain poplar hardwood: for superior strength and minimal flex in high-stress use.
High-quality end-fittings: brass or aluminum alloy connectors, rubber plugs or threaded adaptors depending on model.
Purpose-built for placing and compacting explosive charges in bore holes — not low-quality alternatives disguised with paint.
Browse the variants below and select the specific end-configuration that matches your jobsite equipment and blasting workflow — whether you need a plain pole for basic tamping or a connector/adaptor model for integrating with retrievers or other attachments.
