Spend a few hours at a buffing wheel and polish them. They look better imo and can be "touched up" when scratched which you can't do with paint or powder coating.

Some people don't have the skill or spare time to polish poles. I for one don't either. The idea of awning poles are great, thanks OC for making them. Turbs thanks for kicking it up a notch with powder coating and aluminum as well. I am waiting till the new trailer as with my current 9 ft and 10 ft awnings it seems senseless for poles.

Turbs I need to get you some dimensions for some poles that will fit the awning of a GTown. These suckers are almost straight out and at least 10' tall.

That is pretty tall! I wonder if 1 1/2 powder coated emt might be a better choice so theyt don't collapse.. I am sure Iowa engineering can figure this out!

Awning hold down poles.

Aluminum stock is 6' long which would give us about 11'

Problem is how long is your arm?

Timmy really does need a set of triples. He always get a crappy site on the edge of a hill so he needs the extra long awning poles. Most campgrounds want to keep him on a site where the water will run down hill instead of flooding all of his neighbors.

Can your brackets be used on carefree awnings?
