Hi,

I have a Korum 50inch Graphite Brolly Shelter which I bought around 7 years ago now and I love.

There is nothing wrong with the brolly itself but the part of the pole which has the tread attached which co nexts the actually brolly to the pole has snapped just below the thread.

I spent ages waiting for a replacement part from korum, only for it to arrive and not be the right part, apparently the thread has changed from a male to a femal or visa Cora's since I bought the brolly.

I can't bro g myself to totally replace the brolly as all it needs is the new pole with the correct thread.

Can anyone suggest to me how I can fix this or where I may find the correct pole?

Cheers

Hi, so the end of the pole has a hole in the end with a thread within it, this then screws onto a screw which yes, you can then tilt with.

Oh, fantastic.

Are you able to share a photo of the connecting bit at the end and I can tell you if it is what I'm after or not?

Thanks

Shame, it's the wrong fitting.

I belive the pole I need, has to have a female fitting.

Any other help would be most appreciated.

Cheers
