Blue Diamond Screw Tent Pegs - 20 pack, Purple, One Size

Product Information

No, we are men -the more power tools the better! I've often wondered if I could convert my framing gun to fire awning pegs .... The constabulary might not like it much though Screw in tent pegs are great for regular sand, really soft sand and loose earth, and for your standard camp ground earth. The Hook Collar is used with a Ground Dog screw in peg, when using the high viz straps and safety spring. Screw In Pegs are a galvanised 200mm-long shaft that accepts an included 5mm hexagonal driver, and both standard drills and impact drivers for great drilling forces. While looking a little agricultural, the cleverly designed wires loop and hook remains on the peg shaft and can be used to attach a guy rope, or to hold a tarp down directly to the ground. A great design idea sees the hook pointing downwards so as not to promote toe-stubbing. Although the Screw In Peg performed faultlessly in harder soils, the performance in anything softer is not much different to a standard peg. The finer flutes on the shaft clogged with dirt, rendering it of little use for ground-holding ability. Blue Screw offers two plastic pegs at 310 and 580mm long. They are ideal in sandy environments with exceptional high-hold abilities. Blue Screw suggest its pegs work well in snow, sloppy mud and underwater too, which would be ideal for a boat mooring. The rope hook on top is large enough to attach multiple guy ropes. This product is aimed squarely at sand and soft soil use; forget trying to twist it into hard ground – it simply won’t work. As the Blue Screw is so flexible and long, you need to ensure it’s wound all the way in if pulling it at an angle, but works equally as well if screwed in line with the rope pull instead of at an angle, which could bend or twist the shaft beyond its limits.

The Aldi pegs are very good but you do need to remove the plastic T and open up the holes so the T spins freely. I use 8mm long coach screws and penny washers now. I’ve found the best technique to driving pegs into hard standings if they won’t screw in is to strike them firmly but not too hard and ease them into the substrate rather than trying to get them in with one Thor-like blow. Instead of hammering your tent pegs in the old way, just screw these into and out of the ground in seconds with your rechargeable drill.Depending on the density of the ground and the speed you use to drive the stake into the ground, you will feel the GroundGrabba bite/grip or just spin. If you drill too fast, you may end up boring a hole and the GroundGrabba won’t actually bite into the ground. Go slower and use more downward pressure until you feel the tent stake ‘hold’ the ground. At last you can securely anchor an awning leg vertically when detached from the side of a Caravan/Motorhome, with a Caravan Rollout Awning Anchor Kit. I bought some screw in pegs from Aldi, last year. Tried them once - absolutely useless. Even starting them with a lump hammer (defeating the object of them, IMO) they wouldn't go in. Just spun around and I agree that there is a danger of catching fingers / awning ladders as the top spins round. I hate putting the awning up on a hardstanding - which is why we invariably go to places where we can have a nice grass pitch! Kim Rasmussen I Just wanted to say thankyou for your fantastic service, fast delivery and top product. They certainly have made life easier!

Hi-Gear Screw Tent Pegs (Hexagonal Head) | GO Outdoors

Ezy Anchor is the product of some 25 years of camping and caravanning across Australia – from Fraser Island to Lawn Hill to Kakadu to Broome to Esperance, Broken Hill and beyond. The Pro II’s aren’t just for camping! You can use them to secure your light aircraft, outdoor play equipment, securing outdoor and patio furniture, rigging lighting or staging structures for outdoor events or for permanently anchoring something in your yard. There’s so many uses for the GroundGrabba range. Got a question? Get in touch Screw-in tent pegs make camping so much easier. If there’s one thing you need in your camping equipment, it’s a screw-in tent peg that you know will keep your tent, caravan awning or annexe in place.I've got some but as other have said they aren't all that easy to screw in - I usually bash them in halfway with a hammer and see if they'll screw in the rest of the way. If not they get bashed in all the way. They do come out quite seaily with the drill though. Save time and effort setting up or taking down camp with these Australian designed and made pegs for tents or annexes. It takes longer to screw in as it must go through more revolutions when screwing in and out (this will be time consuming if doing by hand)

The Wing Collar is used with a Ground Dog screw in peg, when using the Anchor Plate to secure the awning leg vertically.If the ground is hard, drill the Ground Dog screw in peg as far as possible, and then wind the wing collar down to the ground level to hold the peg securely Coach bolts & coach screws are made of steel and offer different finishes or coatings, including stainless steel, Bright Zinc Plated, and Passivated Hot Dipped Galvanised, to name a few We now have a GroundGrabba Junior for lower loads and harder grounds available with great holding power but not to the same degree as our Pro, Pro I and Pro II. Don’t take our word for it, see what RV Daily says Peggy Peg offers many different lengths and diameters, as well as aluminium and UV reinforced fibreglass pegs. A great design feature is the rope clips that slot over the hex-shaped head onto the main shaft. The clip can be used anywhere on the shaft meaning the peg doesn’t have to be drilled all the way in to still allow a pull from ground level, which will reduce potential peg damage. Attaching to the clip is a guy rope ladder, which replaces the steel spring on most guy ropes.

The Kampa ones are good on grass but useless on hard standings. I use the giant nail type with a good lump hammer. I also carry a crowbar to remove them easily. You might be wondering how to attach your tent or structure ropes to your GroundGrabba – all you need is the HexHook to slip over the top of the GroundGrabba Pro, Pro I or Pro II then simply hook your rope over the end. They’re yellow zinc plated for anti corrosion and come with a lifetime replacement warranty if in the unlikely event they break. You can also use these on coach bolts (but GroundGrabba’s are way better :) The first pull was set to be pulling the peg out of the ground at a 45° angle, replicating use on a tarp, awning or tent – in effect, trying to bend the peg as well as pulling it free from the ground, and that’s a no-no for some of these pegs. After a life in heavy engineering it used to be that, if it won't go with a big hammer get a bigger hammer. The Wing Collar is used with a Ground Dog screw in peg, when using the Anchor Plate Kit to secure the awning leg vertically.Georgie McRae We used Hex Pegs for a marquee at my wedding. They were so easy to use, and kept it very secure in windy conditions. So much easier than trying to use weights or traditional pegs – thank you Hex Pegs! Supa-Peg’s NEW galvanized steel screw pegs are your ideal replacement for standard pegs where the ground is to hard. Measuring 220mm in length, they can penetrate deep into the ground for the ultimate ground holding capability. A handy 13mm hex head is located at the top so you can use a standard cordless drill for setup. Just loop the guy rope around plastic top to secure your tent. We’ve all been there – hammering in a dozen or more traditional tent pegs and being utterly exhausted afterwards. Not to mention how it feels when one or two slip out in high winds and you’re off trying to catch your tarp and secure it again. See our demonstration on how our ground anchor stakes compare to hammer-in tent pegs by watching the video below. Sometimes the ‘new way’ is simply better! Read the independent review RV daily conducted on our GroundGrabba ground anchors and see how they compare to other ground stakes on the market. They test them against traditional tent pegs and measure the load that they can withstand before pulling out of hard ground and beach sand. A little hint – our steel stakes can withstand the most tension out of all the tent pegs, at over 700kg (over 1500lb)!
