How can I replace the elastic in my tent poles

My tent poles have no elastic to hold them together. Can I repair them or do I have to replace.

It should be easy how I’d do it is order some elastic

Then tie some strong cotton or downing to one end of the elastic. Then a needle on the other end of the thread drop the needle down the pole and gently pull the elastic through the pole . Never tried but should work well.

Hi @billweberg, we certainly advocate for repairing the poles instead of replacing; and hopefully this guide helps get your started:

If you don't have existing elastic to measure against, then it's worth cutting longer to start, and then cutting it shorter once you've made a first test. Take care to use a medium-strength elastic too, as too thin won't keep the poles together, and too strong will be difficult to assemble. Good luck! 💪🛠️
