Are metal clothes pegs suitable for windy conditions?
Any of the metal clothes pegs, regardless of the grade of stainless steel you choose, will hold up well in windy environments. Although they are gentle on your clothes they will hold tight to the line.
Do metal pegs get hot to touch?
It’s an obvious question to be concerned about. Nobody wants a peg that’s going to burn their fingertips when removing it from the clothes line! If this is your concern, you can rest easy. EORTH have tested these wire pegs in the tropical FNQ 40+ degree summer, and we can happily report we don’t have any burnt skin on the tips of our fingers! As the peg is only made from a thin single wire loop, rather than a full metal area, the air is able to flow through the wire peg, allowing it to stay cool to the touch.
Do Stainless Steel Pegs rust?
If you live in close proximity to the ocean, the 316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel Pegs would be more suitable, as they are the highest grade stainless steel wire peg available. Should you encounter any surface rust on your pegs you can soak them in a CLR solution to remove the rust.
How many stainless steel pegs should I buy?
A bag of 40 stainless steel pegs would be suitable for small loads of laundry. If you do a lot of large loads of laundry then you’ll want at least two bags of pegs for your laundry.
