48" Carbon Fiber Tent Pole
I've been impressed with their combination of very lightweight, excellent build quality and utility. I often use trekking poles, but when I don't these work very well. I highly recommend them.
– William H., ★★★★★
These ultralight carbon fiber tent poles are the perfect substitute for setting up our tents if you do not use trekking poles. The 48” size works with our Plexamid (uses 1), Duplex (uses 2) and Triplex (uses 2) tents.
We also have a 32" Carbon Fiber Tent Pole for propping up the head and foot ends of your tent.
Our tent poles are made from high-quality wrapped carbon fiber tubing with internal carbon ferrules. The tubes are stiff and have a high strength to weight ratio.
Straight tent poles are an alternative way to pitch tents and tarps that are designed to be set up with trekking poles. This carbon is rigid, unlike dome-style tent poles.
The poles are cut to fold flush with equal length sections. They are bound together with shock cord. The ends have vinyl end caps.
Our poles have a short folded length, which makes them easy to pack up with your tent (in a tent pole sack).
If you want to use these with a tarp, or on an exterior tent pull out, you might want a trekking pole cup to hold it in place.
If you want to keep your poles organized or protect your tent fabric from the pole(s), add our Tent Pole Sack.
We do not do any carbon cutting, but you can cut these down yourself with a hacksaw or rotary saw. Just cut off the end and replace the vinyl end cap.
All Zpacks gear has a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Please see our return / warranty policy.

Shelter Add-Ons
Sleeping Pad Slide Stopper Set
One "Set" includes two straps, each consisting of a pair Stick on Springless Cord Locks and a 26" (66 cm) length of shock cord which will stretch to fit standard or wide sleeping pads. The shock cord can be cinched snug.
The Sleeping Pad Slide Stoppers easily stick to your desire position on your DCF tent floor. For the best results, attach one strap around where you shoulders typically rest on your pad, and the other strap where your hips rest. Slide your pad under both shock cords and then tighten the cords accordingly.
If you are securing two pads side by side with two sets, offset the patches lengthwise so that the pads sit snug beside each other.
The adhesive on these patches sticks well to the Dyneema Composit Fabric tent floors in all Zpacks tents. It may stick OK to polyurethane coated tent floors. The patches can be carefully peeled off if you decide to remove them later.
Zpacks Inflatable Pillow
Pillow was lightweight and perfect height. A good option for a lightweight pillow.
– Linda M., ★★★★★

Gear Nest
Keep your camp essentials safe and easily accessible with our modular dual-pocket Gear Nest. Perfect for keeping your glasses, phone, and other small items organized. Drop in your headlamp to turn it into an overhead lantern.
The triangular shape preserves your headroom when sitting up on either side of the nest.
To install the Gear Nest, simply attach the adjustable hooks to the loops at the interior of our tent peaks and tighten.
All Zpacks 2 and 3 person tents should already have compatible loops at the peaks.
If your tent does not have loops on the interior, our Stick on Loops work great on shelters made with DCF or other, similar, materials.

Bathtub Groundsheet
Bathtub Groundsheet
$129.00 USDGroundsheet Attachment Kit
Works great! I hang the bathtub onto my pocket tarp and take it off very easily, it's nice to hold it in place with these little accessories.
– Tou C., ★★★★★
Keep your groundsheet from blowing away or shifting out of place by attaching it to your tarp. This kit allows you to attach our bathtub groundsheets to our Hexamid Pocket Tarp or any other tarp. This set includes 6 elastic loops, each with its own mitten hook and cord lock.
Loop the elastic bands on to your groundsheet. Attach the elastic loops to the corners of your tarp, then clip the mitten hooks to the loops on the corners of your groundsheet, and cinch the cord lock to keep the lines tight.
Attach an additional elastic to the front center loop on your groundsheet to allow you to wrap it around your tent/trekking pole.
*If your tarp does not have loops that can be used to attach the elastic, consider adding Stick on Loops.
