Replacement sleeve for the ends of sections of telescopic trekking and Nordic Walking poles.
A ridged version was supplied on new poles until about 2005 which is now becoming hard to source. These smooth Sleeves fit just the same and are a bit stronger.
The sleeve covers the area where one section slides into the other. It reduces the chance of grit getting in and causing jams. The sleeve also reduces the noise of the sections rattling against each other and covers the end of the section to prevent injury.
Old worn-out sleeves can easily be pulled off by hand with the replacement being a simple push-fit.
