Best Pegs stainless steel pegs are the only pegs independently tested for quality to ensure they’re genuine marine grade stainless steel. Below are some frequently asked questions about stainless steel pegs.
Are stainless steel pegs good?
We say yes! Plastic pegs often break apart, leading to microplastic pollution in our soil and waterways. Wooden pegs often break too, or they go mouldy and the spring gets rusty over time. Marine grade 316 stainless steel pegs offer durability and added corrosion resistance. They hold on in windy conditions yet they don’t leave marks on clothes.
Do stainless steel pegs rust?
The grade of the stainless steel is important. 201 and 304 grades of stainless steel does not offer the same corrosion resistance as 316 marine grade stainless steel so it’s worth paying a little more for marine grade stainless steel pegs. Marine grade stainless steel pegs can be left outside on the clothesline. Remember that no matter the grade, all stainless steel needs to be maintained so we recommend washing your pegs every few months to remove any dirt or salty air deposits.
Do stainless steel pegs get hot?
This is a common concern but rest assured that Best Pegs stainless steel pegs do not get hot, even if left outside on the hottest Australian summer day they are not hot to touch.

I deliberated for a while before I bought these them but I love these pegs!! It brings me joy to know they will last and I am contributing to reducing plastic in our world. The two sizes of regular and large are working well for me too. Thanks for designing and distributing earth friendly products like these.

I love good design and these pegs are elegant ! I was sick of disintegrating plastic rubbish pegs and went looking and found these single piece steel pegs as the answer. Very neat !

I bought these for my daughter who lives in far western Queensland where the very harsh climate makes plastic pegs deteriorate quickly. She is very glad of these pegs and knows they are a very good buy.
Now I need to buy some for myself with the 15% discount 👌🏼

There pegs are great, and will last a very long time. I have given a few to my 2 daughter in laws to try and will buy more if they like them. I have used metal pegs covered in plastic before which we’re great and long lasting but after 20 years the plastic wore out.
