Hardwood stakes
 

Hardwood stakes

Stakes sold by Tubex have been carefully selected for quality and consistency, sourced from both the UK and overseas.

A range of lengths and diameters are available to suit all shelter sizes and site conditions. Unless otherwise stated, all stakes are four-way pointed for ease of installation, and are bundled in easy-to-carry quantities; smaller stakes will be bundled in 25’s and larger stakes in 10’s. In most cases bundles are secured using strapping, but occasionally using string or wire.

Hints and tips

  • Hardwood stakes are smaller, saving on transport.
  • Hardwood stakes are stronger and result in fewer breakages.
  • Stakes should be inserted at least 30cm deep into soil.
  • Make sure the top of the stake is below rim of the tubex shelter in order to avoid potential abrasion damage to the tree.
  • When planting into cultivated or lighter soils consider a longer stake for improved stability.
  • On windy sites use larger diameter stakes for better stability.
  • FSC stakes may be available on application – contact the Tubex sales office.
  • UK sourced stakes are available – contact the Tubex sales office.
