MSR Carbon Core Tent Stakes (4 Pack)

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The MSR Carbon Core Tent Stakes are the lightest full-strength tent pegs currently on the market. Strong, durable and extremely lightweight. 

MSR says

MSR is proud to offer the lightest full-strength tent stake on the market – less than 6 grams per stake. The Carbon-Core tent stake uses a carbon fiber core for strength and rigidity, and an aluminum covering for durability. Sold individually and as a kit of four tent stakes.

Our Verdict

Came across this type of peg as supplied with the Easton tents – they have width which means more grip than simple wire pegs. I also noted a marked reluctance to bend – and I was camping on rocky ground – at only 6g these are an excellent choice for most applications. Shown with a cord (by MSR), they don’t come with the cord.

Need to be wary of bashing them with a stone though – the plastic top gets gouged.
