Whether you’re installing biodegradable coir logs on a sloped riverbank or laying down weed mats in a garden, HEIGER’s retaining pins ensure your materials stay securely in place.

Need help choosing the right pin length?

Shorter pins (150mm) are best for firm, dense soil conditions, while longer lengths (200mm or 300mm) offer greater anchorage in loose or sandy soils.

Installation Made Simple

Just position your mat, mesh, or log and push the pin down until it sits flush with the surface. No tools required in most cases. For tougher ground, a mallet may help with easier placement.

- Erosion Control Installations Secure coir logs, jute mats, or erosion blankets along riverbanks, slopes, and construction sites.

What are weed mat pins?

Weed mat pins are U shaped steel pins

How are weed mat pins used?

Weed mat pins are used by sticking them through the ground.

What are retaining pins used for?

Retaining pins, also known as landscape staples or ground anchors, are primarily used to secure materials like erosion control blankets, weed mats, coir logs, and geotextile fabrics to the ground. Their U-shaped design ensures stability, preventing materials from shifting due to wind, water flow, or foot traffic.

How many pins do I need for my project?

The number of pins required depends on the material and installation area:

For erosion control blankets or weed mats, it's recommended to place pins every 0.5 to 1 meter along the edges and at overlaps.

Allow for additional pins at overlaps and seams to ensure stability.

For example, for a 10-meter-long blanket, you might need approximately 20 to 40 pins, depending on the spacing and site conditions.

Can retaining pins be reused?

Yes, if the pins are made from durable materials like galvanized steel and are not bent or damaged during removal, they can be reused. However, repeated use may dull the sharp ends, making insertion into the ground more difficult over time.

Are retaining pins suitable for all soil types?

Retaining pins are versatile and can be used in various soil types. However, their effectiveness depends on the soil's density:

In hard or compacted soils, shorter pins (150mm) are effective.

In loose or sandy soils, longer pins (300mm) provide better anchoring.

For extremely rocky or challenging terrains, specialized anchoring solutions may be more appropriate.

Do I need any tools to install retaining pins?

In softer soils, retaining pins can often be inserted by hand. For harder or compacted soils, using a rubber mallet can help drive the pins into the ground more easily and ensure they are flush with the surface.

Are galvanized retaining pins better than non-galvanized ones?

Yes, galvanized retaining pins are coated to resist rust and corrosion, making them more durable and suitable for long-term outdoor use. Non-galvanized pins may corrode over time, especially in moist environments, reducing their effectiveness and lifespan.

Can I use retaining pins for artificial turf installation?

Absolutely. Retaining pins are commonly used to secure artificial turf, ensuring it stays in place and maintains a smooth, even surface. They help prevent movement due to foot traffic or environmental factors.

How should I dispose of retaining pins after use?

If the pins are still in good condition, consider reusing them for future projects. If disposal is necessary, check with local recycling programs to see if they accept metal items. Avoid leaving pins in the ground, as they can pose hazards to people and equipment.
