Erize Stake, Murano Kajiya, Pegs, Murano Kajiya, Forged Pegs Forged pegs are made by heating round steel material to approximately 1100°C and then crushing the cross-section into an oval shape with a powerful force of about 1 ton. By applying strong pressure to the heated steel material, pegs with excellent strength are completed. Normal round bar pegs tend to spin in the ground, making them difficult to use, but oval pegs penetrate well even in hard ground mixed with gravel and stones, and they firmly fix without spinning in the ground. Also, the pulling direction of the rope is designed with thicker material, so it is made to withstand strong forces. The areas where the rope touches are trimmed to prevent the rope from being cut by burrs, and the utmost care is taken. Excellent rust resistance, withstands over 1,000 hours of salt spray.
