Replacement and repair kits typically include: shock cord (replacement cordage), a lead/installation wire, replacement pole segments and ferrules, and pole tips. Many repair kits also add heat‑activated (heat‑shrink) repair sleeves and an aluminum splint for temporary field repairs.
Most replacement poles are made for dome‑style tents (including two‑pole dome configurations). Some kit descriptions also list compatible tent dimensions — for example, listings sometimes show tent footprints roughly 68" × 78" × 48" or 90" × 78" × 48" as compatibility examples.
Repair kits provide quick, field‑ready fixes: heat‑activated (heat‑shrink) repair sleeves that bond to the pole, an aluminum splint to reinforce or bridge a break, and shock cord to reassemble or replace internal cordage so pole sections can be reconstructed in minutes.
Common replacement pole diameters include about 7 mm and 9 mm, with larger options such as 11 mm also offered. Some listings also note ferrule sizes such as approximately 9.5 mm.
