Hastings Launches Tel-O-Pole® Bucket Stick with Measuring Capabilities

Hastings Fiber Glass Products released a new version of its Tel-O-Pole® Bucket Stick with integrated measuring capabilities. Known as the Tel-O-Pole® Measuring Bucket Stick and product number HV-208-M, the tool allows users to safely take accurate and efficient measurements when working from a bucket truck.

The collapsible, telescoping hot stick combines all the features of Hastings’ original Tel-O-Pole®
Bucket Stick, HV-208, with black English unit marks to improve visibility in the field and ensure long-term readability. It utilises the same lightweight design, insulated fibreglass, and standard Universal Quick-Change Head.

Designed to deliver safety and versatility for everyday use, the Tel-O-Pole® Measuring Bucket Stick
measures vertical heights with 8ft of reach and provides eye-level readings at the top of the base
section. The stick’s positive locking, spring-loaded buttons ensure fast, accurate, and easy extension
in any weather condition. The unit also collapses for convenient storage below the bucket lip.

“With the ability to be a dual-purpose tool backed by a trusted design, the newly updated Tel-O-Pole® Measuring Bucket Stick is an example of Hastings’ continued commitment to industry
innovation and product improvement,” said Brian Baum, vice-president of Hastings. “Our products
are always designed around the needs of our users and built to deliver greater convenience without
sacrificing performance.”

Based in Hastings, Michigan, Hastings is a family-owned business that manufactures and supplies
hot line tools and equipment to lineworkers worldwide. The company’s extensive selection of hot
sticks, attachments, and other safety devices is designed with safety in mind.
