I was wondering when you say these are for guy ropes what you suggest for the groundsheet pegs?
I can see how the deltas work as the guys pull tight the peg has a large surface area to resist the pulling unlike a wire peg. But the forces on a groundsheet are/maybe different so whats the best thing. (plastic, alloy, confused?)
Hi Cozworth. I don't think that you need to be too concerned with groundsheet pegs as they are not generally subjected to major forces. However, I would go for a good quality steel peg (you never know the type of ground you'll be on) and inserted at an angle.
