Clam ice hut, Replacement poles

[garfield the cat]

Looking for any links on where to buy replacement poles for clam. I know clam website but shipping is $120 for $25 or $50 purchase. Almost cheaper to buy a new hut. Not sure where to look. Searching few things online but nothing. Any help is appreciated

If it's a pop up hut I've used fiberglass driveway markers in the passed with no issues

Its a pop up. How did you connect to the hub? Mine has a ball in a hub

Take the nut off the hub to get access. There's a cap on each end of the pole a bit of heat will help take it off. Then a bit of epoxy and reassemble.

I had the same issue last year…. Went to Cabelas in Barrie… talked to the employees with a cart full of stuff that I was buying. He came out with a pole that I just cut down to the right size as they didn’t have any that was the exact size I needed. They have a tone of returned huts that are broken…. They will pull one out for you if you nice and you get the right employee.
