Tent pegs Rockland 18 cm, set of 10 — steel ground stakes for camping and outdoor use

Set of 10 Rockland tent pegs, each 18 cm long, designed to secure tents, tarps and shelter lines in a range of outdoor conditions. These steel ground stakes offer a balance of strength and compactness: the 18 cm length provides firm anchoring in soil and gravel while the set of ten covers typical fastening points for small to medium shelters. The pegs are suitable for carrying in backpacks or storing in camping kits due to their lightweight and compact bundle.

Advantages

Steel construction ensures high resistance to bending and repeated use, while the 18 cm length improves holding power compared with shorter stakes. The set of ten allows multiple attachment points for stable shelter setup and reduces the need to reuse pegs when moving camp. Their compact size and relatively low weight make them convenient to transport, and the simple shape is compatible with standard tent loops and guy lines.

Suitable for

• Securing tents and dome shelters on soil and gravel surfaces
• Anchoring tarps, bivouac shelters and awnings
• Short-term festival or beach setups where moderate holding power is required
• Backcountry or car camping when a basic, reliable stake is needed

Key specifications

• Length: 18 cm
• Quantity: set of 10
• Material: steel
• Suitable surfaces: soil, compacted gravel
• Weight class: lightweight and compact for transport

How to use

Select an appropriate anchoring point by avoiding loose sand, deep peat or areas with large rocks. Insert each peg at a shallow angle away from the tent or tarp to increase pull-out resistance, then drive it into the ground until the head rests near surface level. Attach guy lines or loops to the peg head and tension the line evenly to maintain shelter shape. Remove pegs by pulling along the original entry angle or by rocking them gently to loosen compacted soil.

Usage recommendations

For improved holding in soft or sandy ground, use additional pegging techniques such as longer guy lines with sand anchors or lay debris over the exposed head to reduce movement. Inspect pegs before each season for corrosion or bending and replace damaged items to ensure reliable anchoring.
