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

Product Information

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. I just use a lump hammer and brute force. I still have a few "screw in" pegs that haven't already bent, and use them as plain pegs. At last you can securely anchor your awning leg vertically when detached from the side of your Caravan/Motorhome. I carry a rechargeable SDS drill with an 8mm masonry bit for the really tough hard standings. Useful to wind the pegs out afterwards and spin the steadies up and down.

Screw In Awning Pegs - Caravan Awnings - Caravan Talk Screw In Awning Pegs - Caravan Awnings - Caravan Talk

No plastic bit at the top which can break off. Easy to put in any type of ground with cordless drill. The Wing Collar is used with a Ground Dog screw in peg, when using the Anchor Plate to secure the awning leg vertically.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. http://www. caravantalk. co. uk/community/topic/100873-recommendations-for-screw-pegs/?do=findComment&comment=1102759

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. 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 After a life in heavy engineering it used to be that, if it won't go with a big hammer get a bigger hammer. 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.http://www. caravantalk. co. uk/community/topic/117475-bit-of-a-basic-question-but/?hl=%2Bscrew+%2Bpegs&do=findComment&comment=1370899 Small Hole Cup Pearl Screw Eye Pin Bail Peg, Pinch Bails with Cup, Basic Supplies, Real 14K Gold & Rhodium Plated [BA0023] 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.
