Tiger Stakes 48 inch × 1.125 inch — heavy-duty marquee stake for high-load and soft ground positions
Tiger Stakes 48″ × 1.125″
Primary anchor positions on large marquees and stretch tent configurations with tall poles, where additional embedment depth or pull-out resistance is needed. Between the 42" and 60" where a full five-footer is more than required.
High alloy steel with Hogan's patented heat-drawn point — manufactured to the same specification since 1948. Drives more cleanly in hard ground, where standard mild steel stakes bend. For a full breakdown of the operational case for switching, see Why Professional Hire Companies Choose Hogan Stakes.
- Patented heat drawn point — stays straight in more ground conditions
- High alloy steel construction
- Mill finish — no coating to chip or corrode
- Consistent tip geometry, season after season
Manufactured by Hogan Tent Stakes (USA) — exclusively distributed in the UK by Milestone Events (Yorkshire) Ltd, Leeds. Minimum stake specifications for professional installations are set out in the MUTA Best Practice Guide. Hogan stakes are built to meet those specifications.

Common Questions
How does the 48" × 1.125" compare to the 42" × 1.125" and 60" × 1.125"?
All three share the 29mm shaft. The 42" × 1.125" is 149mm shorter, for clearspan base plates and sailcloth primaries where that embedment is enough. The 60" × 1.125" is 311mm longer, for the highest pull-out requirements and the softest ground. The 48" sits between — primary anchor positions on large marquees and stretch tent configurations needing more than the 42" but not the full 60".
When would I need the 60" × 1.125" instead of the 48" × 1.125"?
When the ground is soft, waterlogged or otherwise short on holding power per metre of embedment — the extra 311mm of the 60" gives meaningfully more depth. Or when the structural specification calls for maximum available pull-out resistance regardless of ground. For most large marquee and stretch tent primary positions, the 48" delivers enough embedment without the extra length.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Tiger Stakes are sold individually — there is no minimum order. You can order as few as you need for a specific job or to top up your fleet. Trade buyers placing regular orders can discuss volume pricing with us directly — get in touch and we can talk through what that looks like for your operation and order frequency.
What structures is the 48″ Tiger Stake best suited for?
The 48″ (1219mm × 29mm) Tiger Stake is designed for high-load anchor positions where the 42″ provides insufficient embedment — including large clearspan structures on exposed or soft ground, heavy temporary buildings, and applications where the structural engineer's specification requires extended driving depth.

Pull testing tells you what the ground is providing before you commit the installation. The extraction tool brings them out clean at de-rig — and gives you a load reading at every position on the way out.

Pull Test Indicator
Measures actual ground holding force in kilograms. Digital display, wireless HOLD remote, CE marked. Confirms the anchorage arrangement is sufficient before the structure goes under load.

Heavy-Duty Stake Extraction Tool
Rack-and-pinion mechanism — axial force, no levering, no bending. Compatible with Tiger Stakes 1" and 1.125". Each extraction stroke gives you a load reading when used inline with the pull test indicator.
