Description
A tent will typically be pegged to the ground by a combination of both direct attachment to the tent's material and via ropes. These skewer tent pegs are used to help maintain the tent's shape, and to hold the tent in place against wind.
Skewer tent pegs are preferably pushed into the ground by hand. However, hard ground, or bigger tent pegs, will require a tent peg mallet to drive them into the ground.
A tent peg provides the greatest holding ability when it is inserted into the ground so that the point of attachment of the rope is at ground level. This minimises the rope's ability to apply leverage to the tent peg, which can loosen or pull the tent peg from the ground.
Product Specification:
• 175mm steel skewer tent pegs in a pack of 10
• 3mm thick with large hooks.
