SNOW PEAK Solid Stakes are forged S55C steel tent pegs made for anchoring tents and tarps in demanding ground conditions. Choose from 20, 30, 40 or 50 cm lengths to match the shelter, guy point and soil depth. Each stake has a black electrodeposited coating, a cylindrical hammering head, a rope-retaining hook and a puller hole compatible with the hook on a suitable peg hammer.

After use, remove soil and vegetation, wipe away moisture and allow the stake to dry before storage. Inspect the shaft, head, hook and coating before each trip. Frequently Asked Questions Which length is the most versatile?The 30 cm model is the general-purpose option for many tent and secondary tarp points. Large tarps, soft ground and high-load guylines may require a longer stake. Are Solid Stakes sold individually?Yes. Select the required length and quantity from the product options. Can the 20 cm stake be used in rocky ground?It is compact and easier to position between stones, but never force it against immovable rock. Move the stake or select another anchoring method if it cannot be seated safely. Is the 50 cm stake only for sand?No, but its extra length is most useful in very soft soil or sand. It is heavier and usually unnecessary for compact ground. What hammer should I use?Use a camping peg hammer with a suitable striking face. A puller hook can engage the stake’s head hole for controlled removal.
