These plastic poles are now accepted by the relevant bodies for games use. They measure 5ft (1.5m) long and 1.25"(30mm)sq. and have become topsellers because of their inherent properties:
Safety -These bending poles have a higher impact break point than the wooden bending poles and, more importantly, when they do break they do not shear causing a sharp point that could damage a child or pony, instead they tend to buckle.
Portability and Storage -The Plastic Bending Poles are supplied with a plastic safety base which makes handling easier than before.
Maintenance - No Painting, just wipe clean or occasionally use a PVC cleaner. This Kit has 5 Bending Poles and 1 Plastic Baton measuring 12" (300mm) in length and 1" (30mm) sq.
