What are the pegs made from?

How should I store the pegs when not in use?

Store the pegs in a dry place to prevent rust and ensure longevity.

What should I do if the pegs bend during installation?

If the pegs bend, reduce the force applied and try inserting them at a different angle. Avoid inserting them directly into rocks or other obstructions.

Are these pegs reusable?

Yes, the pegs are reusable. Clean them after each use and store them properly to maximize their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Pegs are difficult to insert into the ground.

Try wetting the soil or using a rubber mallet to gently tap the pegs in. Avoid excessive force that could bend the pegs. If the ground is very hard, consider pre-drilling small pilot holes.

Pegs are bending during insertion.

Reduce the force applied or try a different angle of insertion. If the soil is rocky, avoid inserting pegs directly where rocks are present.

Secured material is still moving or lifting.

Ensure the pegs are fully inserted and that enough pegs are used to secure the material. Consider adding more pegs if needed, especially in windy conditions.
