MSR Adjustable Poles

Yes, these poles are designed to work with any wing shelter or tarp that uses a grommet or loop attachment point. As long as your shelter setup requires a standard vertical support, these will function effectively.

The poles utilize a simple, intuitive twist-lock mechanism. You extend the pole to your desired length and twist the sections in opposite directions to secure them in place.

While the aircraft-grade aluminum is durable and lightweight, these poles are primarily engineered for standard wing shelters and lightweight tarps. They may struggle under the weight of heavy-duty canvas or significant snow loads.

The collapsed length varies depending on the specific size you choose. Generally, they are designed to be compact enough to fit inside most standard hiking packs, though the 8-foot version will require more vertical space than the 4-foot model.

No, these are sold as individual poles only. You will need to provide your own guy lines and stakes to properly tension and secure your shelter.
