A connector for poles having a male connector (3) portion attached to an end of the pole (1) and a female portion (4) attached to, for example a mop head (2). The female portion has a boss (7) into which the male portion can be inserted. The interior of the boss has a plurality of tapered ribs (10) which engage in a resilient manner with the male portion. The male portion has ribs which deform channels in the female portion. The deformation of the channels causes the boss to contract. The connector provides a releasable connection for a mop. The mop head can be easily removed and discarded after cleaning. |
