FAQs

What is the diameter of these stakes?

These stakes have a consistent machine-rounded diameter of 50mm.

Are these stakes safe for use with organic gardens?

They are pressure-treated with Green Osmose AE500. It is recommended to check the specific chemical safety standards for your region if you are growing edible crops in direct contact with treated wood.

Can I cut these stakes if they are too long?

Yes, you can cut them to size, but note that the cut end will expose raw wood, which should be sealed with a wood preservative to maintain its rot resistance.

What is the total length of the stake?

The stakes measure 1650mm in length.

Do I need to paint or seal the stakes after purchase?

No, they arrive pre-treated with Green Osmose AE500, so they are ready for immediate outdoor use.

Troubleshooting

Stake is difficult to drive into hard ground

Use a steel crowbar or a dedicated pilot hole tool to create an initial opening before inserting the stake.

Stake feels loose after installation

Ensure the stake is driven deep enough into the sub-soil; if the ground is soft, consider tamping down the soil around the base of the stake.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High resistance to rot and fungal decay due to professional treatment
  • Pointed end significantly reduces installation time and effort
  • Consistent diameter ensures a uniform and professional look in the garden
  • Strong enough to handle both tree support and mesh fencing tension

Cons

  • Fixed length of 1650mm may not suit every tree size or soil depth requirement
  • Requires proper driving tools to avoid damaging the chamfered top
  • Wood material may eventually weather despite treatment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, use a heavy-duty mallet or a post driver to sink the stake into the ground until it is firm and stable. If the ground is particularly rocky or hardened, consider using a pilot hole tool first to prevent snapping the stake.

Compatibility is broad; these stakes work seamlessly with standard rubber tree ties, plastic zip ties for netting, and various types of galvanized wire for fencing. For maintenance, while the Tanalised treatment is long-lasting, you can periodically inspect the base near the soil line for any signs of surface weathering. While the stakes are designed to be low-maintenance, keeping them clear of standing water where possible will further extend their service life.
