    The same telescoping structure, across more industries

    Beyond golf, marine, industrial, outdoor and pets, we make telescoping products for automotive, flags, sports, retail, home, photography and robotics. Each industry sets a different challenge; every solution starts from the same capabilities: materials, profiles, locks, function heads and packaging.
