homebase fiberglass pole?

[KB312]

Could anyone recommend a good quality pole for permanent use as a homebase pole for use with a 11m Thunderbolt antenna?
I dont know much about fiberglass poles but I obviously dont want it slipping free and retracting!
I was thinking an 8m pole as the neighbours can be picky.

Many thanks from Rob.

PS this pole is local to me for pickup

Longer and a bit more expensive but the option is there to go higher and maybe stronger if you don't.

I don't think there's any regs for temporary type antenna structures like these, but may be corrected.

Sorry I didnt say thank you for the reply.
Spiderbeams seem to be in short supply.
I think I’m going to order a DX Commander 10m with some of those ezyclamps.

Just buy fiberglass fishing rod, no carbon fiber.
26ft and use only thickest part. Forget the top.

No worries Bob. Hope you get sorted

Decathalon do various lengths of carp poles. Up to 7m. 5 mins with some epoxy and it's a permanent job. And the prices are good. €26 for the 7m. 16 for the 4m version.

That said the last section might be a bit thin.

But a cheap experiment.
