Description
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.
How many stainless steel pegs do I need?
This depends on the number of people in your household and your preferences when hanging out laundry, as some people share pegs between items. Best Pegs are available in pack sizes of 20, 40, 50 (mixed size), 60, 80 and 100 so we have you covered!

I’m really happy with my new pegs. They are a great size and can manage tougher fabrics and towels easily. I was keen for the marine grade since we holiday at the beach each year for at least three weeks at a time. I’ll pack these pegs and know they can withstand the salty air. Should have bought more!!

I love my bigger marine grade pegs. I have arthritis in my hand & did purchase smaller pegs from a different supplier over a year ago. I am so glad I discovered Best Pegs, as they sell the bigger pegs which are much better & easier to handle.
I also live on a farm on a peninsula so have fierce winds so need my pegs to hold well which they do.
I am so glad I purchased enough to replace all of my failing plastic pegs, a great decision & fantastic product !!!!

Great quality pegs, so happy with the size! Much better than the smaller pegs, these actually hold large items in the strong Gold Coast wind. My partners mum is getting me onto buying her some too! Quick delivery and easy ordering process. Thanks Bestpegs!
