The Darche Telescopic Alloy Pole backs up Eclipse awnings and Darche tents when you want solid shelter on a 2 m long side. The alloy tube handles regular campsite loads across common awning widths around 2–2.5 m. You can run the pole low for shade or up near head height at roughly 1.8–2.1 m to clear doors and tailgates while you get out there around camp. The pole uses lightweight alloy with wall thickness about 1–2 mm, so it rides easily in the ute yet still deals with daily campsite use. Rubber or plastic end caps give a contact patch roughly 25–30 cm², which helps protect tent floors on packed dirt or boards. Telescopic adjustment over about 1 m lets you match uneven ground and sloping sites, which is a smart buy for regular touring in Aussie weather.

Q: Is this pole compatible with non-Darche awnings or tents?

The pole is specified to suit Darche Eclipse awnings, Air-Volution tents and Safari tents. Other gear may use different fittings or diameters. If your existing awning or tent has matching pole pockets or eyelets, it may still work but should be checked in person. For best results match it with the listed Darche setups.

Q: Can this telescopic pole be used as a spreader bar between two upright poles?

The pole is supplied as a support pole for Darche Eclipse awnings and tents. Some users may adapt similar poles as spreaders, but the listed purpose here is vertical support. Using it as a spreader depends on your hardware and anchor points. Always make sure any clamps are fully locked before putting weight on the pole.

Q: Does the pole include guy ropes or pegs?

The listing covers the telescopic alloy pole only. Guy ropes, pegs and other tie-down gear are separate pieces of kit. Many awning and tent packages already include ropes and pegs, so this pole can drop into that existing setup. If you need extras, add separate ropes and pegs to your order.

Q: Is the pole height adjustable enough for 4WD awning setups on lifted vehicles?

The pole is height adjustable by its telescopic design. The exact extended length is not listed here, but it is specified as an awning pole for Darche Eclipse units commonly fitted to 4WDs. For very tall or custom setups, check your awning height and compare it with Darche pole specifications on their main range before committing.

Suitable for Darche Eclipse Awnings, Darche Air-Volution tents and Darche Safari tents.
