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

Product Information

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. http://www. caravantalk. co. uk/community/topic/117475-bit-of-a-basic-question-but/?hl=%2Bscrew+%2Bpegs&do=findComment&comment=1370899

screw-in pegs better than traditional tent pegs? - RV Daily Are screw-in pegs better than traditional tent pegs? - RV Daily

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. If the ground is hard, drill the Ground Dog screw in peg as far as possible, and then wind the Hook Collar down to the ground level to hold the peg securely 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 Wing Collar is used with a Ground Dog screw in peg, when using the Anchor Plate to secure the awning leg vertically.http://www. caravantalk. co. uk/community/topic/100873-recommendations-for-screw-pegs/?do=findComment&comment=1102759 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)! from the drill, which is battery powered. I do have an air powered one which needs the compressor, but hat maybe is slightly over the top. Daniel Marron Brought a set of these bad boys at the camping show Feb 2018, the best set of pegs ever. We have a camp trailer and I set the misses up with the cordless drill and away she goes. Super easy to go in, easy to drill out. Great product.

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. Peggy Peg can even supply long masonry bits to pre-drill holes into ridiculously hard ground. A combo tool can be used to help twist the pegs into the ground should your drill not do the job and there are purpose-designed anchor plates that accommodate up to seven separate pegs for extra ground-hugging force as well as slots to take awning legs. 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!

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 Ryobi, as you say are OK especially for occasional use by old gimmers like me but not good for heavy regular use. DeWalt are very good but expensive and I think much loved by joiners and plumbers. when I worked in power generation we favoured Makita which we found fine for mechanical work.

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 :) Ground Dog screw in pegs are sold individually, and each Ground Dog screw in peg comes with an orange Hook Collar. I have seen some that are threaded but you still hammer them in and then give them half a turn to loosen them to remove. Even thought about the rebar type but these look to be over egging it a bit.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.
