TACO Marine Telescoping Aluminum Support Pole with Snap-On End, Satin Anodized, Cam-Lock

Overview

The TACO Marine Aluminum Support Pole with Snap-On End is a telescoping boat cover support pole for holding canvas and shade material up so water is less likely to pool on top. It uses a cam-lock design for adjustment and comes in two ranges, 24" to 45-1/2" and 30" to 57-1/2", giving boat owners a practical way to match the pole height to the cover, cockpit, or deck layout.

The pole has a satin anodized aluminum finish, which suits visible canvas hardware and helps keep the installation looking clean around cockpits, helm areas, and covered seating zones. It is sold individually, so multiple poles can be matched to the size and support needs of the cover.

Key features

• Telescoping boat cover pole helps support canvas and shade material above the deck.
• Cam-lock adjustment makes it easier to set the working height without fixed-length hardware.
• Snap-on end connection supports quick placement with compatible cover hardware.
• Available in two telescoping ranges: 24" to 45-1/2" and 30" to 57-1/2".
• Satin anodized aluminum finish works well for exposed boat canvas hardware.
• Helps reduce water pooling that can stain covers or place extra load on the fabric.
• Sold individually for single-point support or multi-pole cover layouts.
• Backed by a 5-year limited warranty.

Variants

This support pole is offered in two configurations that use the same snap-on end style and satin anodized finish. The difference is the telescoping range, which affects the minimum stored length and the maximum supported height.

Both options suit boat covers and shade setups where the cover needs to be lifted from below rather than left flat across the cockpit, seating area, or deck.

• T10-7579VEL2: Telescoping range 24" to 45-1/2". This shorter range works for lower cover profiles or tighter areas where a longer collapsed pole is not needed.
• T10-7579VEL2.5: Telescoping range 30" to 57-1/2". This longer range gives more height for covers that need extra lift over larger openings or higher support points.

Use on board

This pole is a good match for boat owners who want a simple support point under a canvas cover, cockpit cover, or shade section. By lifting the fabric, it helps shed water instead of letting low spots form after rain, washdowns, or overnight dockside storage.

Installation and fit

Before ordering, check the distance from the deck or support surface to the underside of the cover at the point where the pole will stand. Select the telescoping range that places your normal working height comfortably within the adjustment span, leaving room for small changes as the cover tension changes.

For larger covers, more than one pole may be needed so the fabric is supported evenly. The snap-on end should be matched with compatible cover hardware already on the boat or planned as part of the canvas setup.
