Helio XL Pole
£24.99
The Helio XL tarp pole lets you pitch higher and spread out more. Whether you want to boost the standing room under your Helio XL tarp or add more open-ground pitching options to your existing tarp setup, this extra pole gives you more flexibility at camp.
It’s the same lightweight aluminium pole we include with the Helio XL wing tarp. Just pack an extra one and set your shelter up exactly how you like it.
Why take an extra pole
-
More liveable space – Lift more corners for extra headroom or a better breeze
-
Pitch your way – Works with any tarp that needs extra height or support
-
Same as the original – the same high quality pole we include with the Helio tarp
-
Spare or replacement – Ideal if you’ve lost a pole or want a backup for longer trips
Add headroom to your tarp setup
Add one or two Helio XL tarp poles and you can create a porch, raise the sides, or tailor your shelter for the wind and sun. They slot straight into the reinforced eyelets on the Helio; and work with other tarps too. A simple way to give your camp setup more headroom and breathing space.
No trees? No problem. And no more hunching over the stove.
Built to last
This is the same high quality 233.5cm pole we supply with the Helio XL wing tarp - lightweight, strong and compact when packed. Folding 4-section aluminium construction with a pointed tip and rubber ground cap.
No added weight. No faff. Just the pole you need to fine-tune your setup.
