Eye Lag Pole Parts: What You Need to Know
Eye lag poles generally fall into two categories:
two-stage and three-stage. While some parts are interchangeable, others are specific to the pole type and diameter.
You will also find some poles also feature
interchangeable heads (plugs), allowing one tool to handle multiple applications. The Lagmaster A Plus and the The Lagmaster Plus are a couple examples.
Two-Stage Eye Lag Poles (Double Poles)
A two-stage eye lag pole consists of two sections: an inner pole and an outer pole. These are commonly referred to as “doubles.” The outer drive pole has an inner diameter of 1-1/8" so you would use the smaller driver,
LM-DRIVER-S
Common Replacement Parts for Two-Stage Poles
- Driver end (drill connection): LM-DRIVER-S
- Bale Pins. Tend to get lost.
If your pole has interchangeable heads, you can upgrade using a retrofit kit or add a base and select heads individually.
Three-Stage Eye Lag Poles (Triple Poles)
A three-stage eye lag pole includes three sections: top, middle, and bottom. These are commonly called “triples” and are ideal for higher ceiling applications. The outer drive or bottom pole has an inside diameter of
1-1/4" so you would use LM-DRIVER-L. The head portion of the tool remains the same as the double eye lag pole.
Common Replacement Parts for Three-Stage Poles
- Driver end: LM-DRIVE-L
- Bale Pins. Tend to get lost.
Eye Lag Pole Replacement Heads (Standard Poles)
If your pole has non-interchangeable heads, you’ll need to select the correct head style. The standard Lagmaster is an example of a lag pole without interchangeable heads.
Head choices include
- Standard welded ring head
- Set screw ring head
- Pre-tied eye lag head
Standard poles can often be converted to interchangeable systems with the right retrofit components.
