Abstract
A rod assembly includes a rod having a first rod section telescopingly received with a second rod section, first and second end caps, and first and second covers. Each end cap has an open first end, a generally closed second end, and a groove which extends around an external periphery of the end cap proximate the generally closed second end. Each cover has a cavity extending between a generally open first end and an opposing second end. The cavity has a flange which extends around an interior periphery of the cavity at an open end of the cavity. The cavity of each cover is sized and shaped to receive at least a portion of one of the first and second end caps therein such that the external peripheral groove of the end cap engages the internal peripheral flange of the cover.
