Heavy-Duty Tent Stakes

Commercial tent stakes are a must for keeping a tent upright and taut. Sometimes called tent spikes, tent pins (by the US military), or tent pegs (by the English), ours are made in the USA from high-quality steel in a variety of colors.

Tent Spike Construction

Our tent stakes are hot forged from steel for a great all-around quality spike for many conditions. The heat-treating process hardens the steel, creating the strength and durability to allow it to be driven into pavement, frozen ground, and other hard surfaces.

Canopy Stake Sizes

The three length sizes (12", 18", and 24") give you an option for both home and commercial tent stake uses, including for pop up and camping tents, wedding tents, party and event tents, canopies, solar shades, light maintenance enclosure (LME) tents, Tent Extendable Modular Personnel (TEMPER) tents and inflatables.

Our 18" tent peg size is often purchased for use as a kite anchor as well.

Tent Peg Color Options

Color can be important when choosing a tent stake, and US Cargo Control carries five standard colors: red, black, white, orange and yellow. Each color offers different key benefits.

High Visibility Colors

Red, yellow, and orange are all great options for high visibility. They lessen the chances of someone tripping over a spike, and are the ideal choice for situations with taller grass, weeds, or high foot traffic. Orange is also a popular choice for hunters.

A military-approved red tent stake is available as well. This type II stake meets the specifications of NSN 8340-00-823-7461

Complementary Colors

For events where you aren't worried about trip hazards or you need to match the theme, choose black, white, or clear.

Special event white tents like those for weddings and parties look best with matching tent stakes in white, while black is an all-around good choice to match nearly any color tent or inflatable.

Our clear zinc-plated stakes are a versatile option for nearly any use, and the zinc plating adds an additional measure of protection against corrosion.

Tent Stake Use

Manufactured to last a lifetime, tent stakes from US Cargo Control are a quality choice. Be sure to buy a few more than you intend to use so you'll always have extras on hand if one goes missing or is misplaced. Buying a few in different sizes is also a good idea. 

How Many Canopy Stakes Do I Need?

Because every manufacturer's tents and inflatables anchor differently, we suggest you use their recommendations concerning size and number of metal tent pegs you'll need. You'll also want to take into consideration how much wind load you may experience during use, as this can also affect the number of tent stakes needed to safely anchor an item.

Make Your Stakes Stand Out

If you expect heavy foot traffic, pick up some mushroom-shaped plastic caps at your local hardware store. Even colored stakes can be difficult to see in early evening and night time conditions. Protecting pedestrians from injuring a foot by accidentally stepping on a tent spike is worth the time and cost of purchasing plastic caps.
