Product Information
Full details
The Highlander Arrow Aluminium Pegs are designed for backpackers and campers who require a high-strength anchoring solution that performs across diverse soil conditions. Featuring a robust Y-beam design and lightweight 7075 aluminium construction, these pegs offer superior hold without adding significant weight to your pack. While the bright orange finish makes them easy to spot in tall grass, users should be aware that the aggressive Y-profile requires a firm surface to insert, which may be difficult in extremely rocky or frozen ground.

FAQs
How many pegs are included in a pack?
Each pack contains 6 Highlander Arrow Aluminium Pegs.
Are these pegs suitable for winter camping?
These are primarily designed for three-season use. They may struggle to penetrate frozen or icy ground.
What is the length of each peg?
Each peg measures 18cm (7 inches) in length.
Can I use a metal hammer with these?
It is recommended to use a rubber mallet or a rock to avoid damaging the top of the peg, though the 7075 aluminium is quite durable.
What is the total weight of the set?
The full set of 6 pegs weighs approximately 72g.
Why is the orange color important?
The high-visibility orange finish makes the pegs easy to spot in grass, which significantly reduces the chance of losing them when packing up camp.
Troubleshooting
Peg is bending during insertion
You are likely hitting an obstruction like a rock or root. Move the peg a few centimeters to a new location instead of forcing it.
Peg pulls out of soft ground in high winds
Angle the peg further away from the tent and ensure it is driven in until the cord loop sits flush with the surface.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior holding power in loose or soft soil
- Extremely lightweight and packable
- Highly visible orange color prevents loss
- Durable enough for long-term repeated use
- Easy to remove thanks to attached pull-loops
Cons
- Not suitable for extremely rocky or frozen ground
- Y-shape requires consistent orientation when hammering
- Paint may chip after repeated impact with hard stones
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Highlander pegs, always drive them into the ground at a 45-degree angle pointing away from your tent to optimize tension distribution. When pulling the pegs out, use the attached cord loops; if the ground is exceptionally hard, twist the peg slightly while pulling to break the surface tension rather than yanking straight up.
After use, wipe off any mud or grit before storing them in your gear bag. While the 7075 aluminium is corrosion-resistant, removing moisture ensures the finish remains intact and prevents the dirt from abrading the orange coating over time. These pegs are compatible with all standard tent guy-line configurations and webbing loops.
