{"product_id":"the-titanium-eight-ultralight-tent-stakes","title":"The Titanium Eight | Ultralight 165mm Titanium Tent Stakes","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight is the only luxury that cannot be faked. A tent stake that saves eight grams sounds like a rounding error until it is multiplied by eight stakes, carried for eleven kilometres, and added to a pack that already feels heavier than it did at the trailhead. Titanium earns its price here not through marketing but through a property no aluminium alloy can match at this thickness: it bends and returns instead of snapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese stakes are 3.0 mm in diameter and 165 mm long, formed from titanium alloy with a hooked head that takes a guy line without a separate loop of cord. The profile is thin enough to drive into compacted ground and the hook seats the line at a fixed angle, so tension stays where you set it overnight. At roughly a third of the weight of equivalent steel pegs, the set of eight costs less than a hundred grams in the pack - a category of object you stop noticing, which is exactly the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour option is not decoration. Anodised finishes make the stakes findable at dusk and in long grass, which matters more than aesthetics when you are pulling camp at first light. Everything else is left deliberately plain: no plastic caps to lose, no welded joints to fail, no coating to chip off into the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-style:italic;color:#555;\"\u003eEighty grams of metal that refuses to fail.

Ultralight backpacking, bikepacking, alpine bivouacs, and fast overnighters where every item in the pack has to justify its weight. They also suit kayak and packraft camping, where salt water would corrode a steel peg within a season and titanium simply does not react. On a car-camping trip they are overkill - but they are also the stakes that survive being borrowed, dropped, and driven into ground that would bend a cheaper peg into scrap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-faq\" style=\"margin-top:28px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will they hold in wind?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: In compact soil, yes - the hook keeps line tension fixed and the shaft depth is adequate for three-season use.
