Peg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ground anchor with ground pegs

Ground nails are round bars with a compressed head for anchoring technical structures in the ground.

Ground pegs are regularly used to secure structures in motion against tilting, sliding and lifting, as well as to attach grounding ropes to mobile facilities. Also the use of multi-purpose coatings in the technical assistance by fire brigades or the THW pegs are used for fixation of the ground anchor.

Ground nails are used in lengths of 30 to 200 cm with a diameter of 1.5 to 5.0 cm. The head is compressed , so that an attachment for ropes , plates, etc. Ä. exists.

Compared to the tent peg pegs are larger, in contrast to the herring pegs are made of round steel.
