The Skimlite 381B is a genuine replacement guide fitting designed to keep Skimlite telescopic pool poles operating smoothly and accurately. The guide fitting sits within the outer pole section and aligns the inner pole as it slides through during extension and retraction, preventing wobble, lateral play, and misalignment that can develop as poles age and wear through regular professional use. Available in black, the 381B is part of Skimlite's "Replace with Confidence" replacement parts program, which reflects the brand's commitment to user-serviceable pole designs that can be maintained and repaired rather than fully replaced. Manufactured in the USA by Skimlite Manufacturing, Inc. — a third-generation company producing professional pool maintenance equipment since 1954.
