FAQs

What is the primary use for these pipe clips?

Their primary use is to securely attach horticultural fabric or fleece to aluminium fruit and vegetable cages, preventing wind uplift and keeping cages tidy.

What is the diameter of the tubing these clips are designed for?

These clips are designed for 13mm diameter tubing.

Can these clips be used for anything other than cages?

Yes, they can be used for securing plants to stakes or trellises, attaching netting to garden structures, and holding plant labels.

How many clips are in a pack?

Each pack contains 20 clips.

Are these clips available in other colors or sizes?

While this specific product is black and 13mm, Gardening Naturally also offers pipe clips in white and in different sizes, such as 16mm.

How should I clean these clips?

Clean them with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Store in a dry place.

Are these clips suitable for heavy-duty applications?

They are designed for garden fabric and plant support. For very heavy-duty applications, a more robust fixing might be necessary.

Troubleshooting

Clips do not grip fabric securely

Ensure the fabric is pulled taut against the cage frame before clipping. For very windy conditions, consider using additional clips or a different securing method.

Clips are too tight or too loose on tubing

These clips are designed for 13mm tubing. If the tubing is slightly larger or smaller, the grip may be compromised. Check the diameter of your tubing. For slightly larger tubing, try positioning the clip at the widest point of the cage frame.

Clips break during installation

Apply pressure smoothly and evenly. Do not force the clips. If resistance is met, check for obstructions or ensure the tubing diameter is appropriate. Gentle, consistent pressure is key.

  • Effectively secures horticultural fleece to cages, preventing wind damage.
  • Offers a neat and organized look to garden structures.
  • Multi-functional for various garden securing needs.
  • Durable construction ensures longevity.
  • Convenient pack size for common garden tasks.

Cons

  • Limited to 13mm tubing, making them unsuitable for larger diameter structures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These clips are designed for immediate use. Simply slide them onto the aluminium tubing of your fruit or vegetable cage, or any other 13mm diameter rod or stake, and then position your fabric or netting. Squeeze the clip firmly to ensure a secure fit.

Compatibility: These clips are specifically designed for 13mm diameter tubing. They are ideal for the aluminium framework of many standard fruit cages. Ensure your structure's tubing is approximately 13mm in diameter for optimal fit. They can also be used on garden stakes, dowels, or other rods of a similar size.

Care: To maintain their performance, clean the clips periodically with a damp cloth to remove soil or debris. Store them in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion and prolong their lifespan. Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals.
