LASHING ROD AND CONNECTOR THEREFOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide lashing rods and connectors therefor capable of largely contributing to cost reduction having no directional properties at connecting edges, since the lashing rods are connected using the same shape connectors when the lashing rods are extended, and easily disassembling the lashing rods when the connectors of the lashing rods are removed. SOLUTION: The connectors 10 have the same shapes and, are attached to both ends of the lashing rods 1 and comprise joint sleeves 11 that are formed at one-side ends of the lashing rods and fix the lashing rods 1; a pair of two- way type protruding segments 12, which are protrudingly formed at two points arranged at the other ends of the rods and oppose each other with the center of the rod between, and engaging protrusions 13 that are formed inside the protruding segments, respectively; and engaging holes 14 which are formed at two points intersecting with the protruding segments 12 and in which the engaging protrusions 13 of the connected lashing rods 1 are engaged with each other.
