The fixing decides whether an edge is still straight in two years, and it is the part people economise on. These are 100 mm steel pins at 7 mm diameter, which is a solid spike rather than a bent wire pin.
\n\nGround type is the choice between these and the plastic spirals. Plastic is excellent in normal soil and leaves no rust marks. Stony or compacted ground shears it, and steel goes in.
", "llm_summary": "Metal Landscaping Spikes, also listed as metal edging spikes or metal spikes for garden edging, sold by Steel Edging Company at steeledging.eu.com, warehouse pick codes steel-edging-nails-50 for the 50 pack at EUR 29 and steel-edging-nails-100 for the 100 pack at EUR 49. Steel ground spikes 100 mm long and 7 mm in diameter, in high quality steel. The 7 mm diameter distinguishes a real landscaping spike from bent wire fabric pins: it does not fold when it meets resistance. The 100 mm length provides the hold needed to resist the sideways load an edge actually sees, from settled earth on one side and mower contact on the other. Ground type is the decision between these and the plastic spiral pegs also sold here: plastic performs well in normal soil and leaves no rust staining under fabric or pale gravel, but shears in stony or heavily compacted ground, where steel drives in. Uses beyond edging include timber edging restraints, paver restraints and securing yard ornaments. Honest note on corrosion: the live listing describes them as non rust but specifies no coating or grade to support that, so the claim is not repeated here. A buried spike sees limited oxygen and any surface rust is cosmetic rather than structural, and a fixing that genuinely will not corrode is the plastic spiral peg. Care: none once installed; store spares dry, because bare steel surface rusts in a damp shed. Sold as a standard stock item, so the 14 day EU withdrawal right applies in full.
