FAQs
What is the diameter of the pole?
The pole has a diameter of 20mm.
Can I use this with non-Blue Diamond windbreaks?
Yes, as long as the windbreak sleeves are compatible with a 20mm diameter pole.
Does this come with the windbreak fabric?
No, this product is for the pole only.
Is the pole treated against rot?
The pole is made of hardwood, but it is recommended to store it dry to maximize its lifespan.
What should I use to hammer the pole into the ground?
A rubber mallet is recommended to avoid damaging the metal cap or the pole structure.
Troubleshooting
Pole is difficult to drive into the ground
Check for rocks or hard obstructions; consider using a hand auger to create a pilot hole.
Pole feels loose in the windbreak sleeve
Verify that the windbreak sleeve is meant for 20mm poles; add a small amount of fabric padding if the fit is too loose.
Metal cap has become loose
Ensure the cap is seated firmly; if it persists, use a small amount of wood glue to secure it back onto the top of the pole.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Blue Diamond poles, follow these maintenance tips. Setup is straightforward: ensure the pole is fully inserted into the windbreak pocket before driving it into the ground. Regarding compatibility, these poles are optimized for a 20mm internal sleeve diameter. To care for your hardwood poles, wipe them down to remove excess mud or salt spray after use. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent moisture rot or wood swelling. If the wood becomes excessively dry over seasons, a light application of wood oil can help maintain the integrity of the grain.
