Tarp Stakes, Tarp Spikes, Tarp Anchors or Tarp Pegs

I use these for our big canvas tent. They are well made and hold really well. They are not light; I wouldn't consider taking them backpacking but for car camping they are perfect. They were shipped directly from the manufacturer and arrived well before Amazon said they would.The ground where I live is really hard and so it takes a bit of hammering to get them into the rocky soil. That hammering has caused the paint to flake off on the tops. If you want them to look pristine then don't hit them with a hammer. I knew when I purchased them that I would be using a hammer on them and I was fully expecting the paint to chip so that didn't bother me but I imagine that it could be an issue for some people. Despite being used in some rather wet conditions at times I haven't noticed any rust appear on them even on the spots where the paint was missing. Even with all the pounding and getting them stuck against something solid in the ground (who knows what it was) I haven't managed to bend any of them yet.

These Tarp Spikes are the best that I have seen yet. They are very well made, and I should get a lot of years of them. So for anyone who is looking for Tarp Spikes for either setting up some type of outdoor shelter, or to replace those flimsy spikes that come with a tent, then this is the way to go.

I bought these to keep a tent and canopy from being blown away by onshore wind. I'm not sure why they bother with the enamel coating. A lot chips off in shipping. But I didn't buy them to look at.

Great, as described and worked properly. I did bend one because of roots in ground.

they work great

Second order. As good as the first!
