There's a very useful entry by valk scott on repairing tent poles. You can buy a fibreglass pole kit, which includes spare sections of pole, shock cord to go through the middle, and a threading rod. First you need to measure the diameter of the pole you are replacing. Trying to see the difference between 8.6mm and 9.5mm will send you cross-eyed using a ruler, so you might need to find a friend with a micrometer. Places like Towsure sell the kits, about six to ten pounds depending on diameter.
