Product details
Dripline anchorage pegs provide a simple and secure way to hold drip irrigation line and above-ground LDPE irrigation pipe against the soil surface. These sturdy barbed irrigation pipe pegs are suitable for 16mm and 20mm pipe and help keep dripline neatly positioned across borders, planting beds and landscaped areas.
Why use dripline anchorage pegs?
The pegs are manufactured from polyethylene and have reinforcing ribs to allow the peg to be pushed into the ground. The ribs have barbs to resist the upward pull of the pipe pulling the pegs out again. The hook will accept 16mm or 20mm LDPE irrigation pipe.
How many anchorage pegs do I need?
Dripline is supplied in coils and can naturally try to return to its coiled shape when first laid out. Anchorage pegs hold the pipe securely against the soil surface, helping to keep straight runs neat and preventing the dripline from moving out of position. They are particularly useful around bends, curves and planting areas where additional fixing points may be needed. For most installations, position the pegs approximately 1m apart on straight runs, reducing the spacing where the pipe changes direction.

Frequently asked questions
How far apart should dripline anchorage pegs be?
As a general guide, position the pegs approximately 1 metre apart on straight runs of dripline. Use additional pegs around bends, curves and anywhere the pipe tends to lift away from the soil surface.
Do these anchorage pegs fit 16mm dripline?
Yes. The anchorage pegs are suitable for both 16mm and 20mm dripline. They can also be used to secure 16mm and 20mm above-ground LDPE irrigation pipe in borders, beds and landscaped areas.
How many dripline pegs will I need?
As a general guide, allow approximately one anchorage peg for every metre of dripline on straight runs. You may need additional pegs at bends, corners and changes of direction, so it is sensible to allow a few extra when planning an installation.
Why do I need anchorage pegs for dripline?
Dripline is supplied in coils and can naturally try to return to its coiled shape when first installed. Anchorage pegs hold the pipe against the soil surface, keeping the layout neat and helping to maintain the correct position of the dripline.
Can dripline anchorage pegs be reused?
Yes. Providing they are removed carefully and remain undamaged, the pegs can normally be reused if the irrigation layout is altered or moved.
