Heavy-Duty Fixing Pegs For Securing Geotextile Membranes & Ground Fabrics
Black Barbed 160mm Tough Square Pegs are durable, UK-manufactured pegs designed to securely anchor ground cover materials in landscaping, groundwork and construction settings. Each peg features a wide square top, sharp point and barbed shaft to deliver superior hold across soft or hard substrates.
Reliable Anchorage, Every Time
With 10 integrated barbs and a sharp-pointed tip, these pegs grip firmly into the ground to prevent fabric movement — even in challenging soil conditions. The large square head increases surface contact and helps keep materials flat and tensioned.

FAQs
What materials can I secure with these pegs?
They’re suitable for a wide range of geotextiles, including NW8, G90, coir matting, and weed membranes.
Will they snap in tough ground?
No - the shank is impact-resistant and designed to resist breakages in firm or stony soil.
Are they safe to use near services or livestock?
Yes. Unlike metal pins, these pegs are plastic, reducing risk around power cables, animals, or machinery.
Can I get a biodegradable version?
Yes, a degradable alternative is available — ideal for short-term or eco-sensitive installations.
How many pegs do I need per square metre?
Use approximately:
-
- 1 per 1–2m² for light jobs
- 2–4 per m² for heavier-duty or sloped areas
