Builders Pegs & Boxing Stakes for Concreting and Site Set-Out

Builders pegs are a simple but essential part of many construction and landscaping projects. Used to secure concrete boxing, establish levels, mark boundaries, and hold formwork in place, they help ensure slabs, footpaths, driveways, and foundations remain accurate during installation. Whether you're completing a small residential project or a large commercial build, quality boxing pegs provide the stability needed for reliable results.

Our range includes timber builders pegs manufactured from Radiata Pine, with options suitable for both temporary and permanent outdoor applications.

H4 Treated and Untreated Builders Pegs

Choosing the right builders peg depends on the intended application.

H4 treated Radiata Pine boxing pegs are designed for ground contact and outdoor use, making them ideal for securing concrete boxing, retaining wall formwork, landscaping projects, and agricultural applications. Available in lengths from 450mm through to 2400mm, they provide excellent versatility for a wide range of site conditions and project sizes.

Untreated rough sawn kiln-dried boxing pegs are a practical and economical choice for temporary concrete formwork. Supplied in bundles, these pegs are commonly used on building sites where formwork will be removed once the concrete has cured.

Common Applications

Builders pegs are widely used throughout residential, commercial, and civil construction projects. Typical uses include:

• Securing timber boxing for concrete slabs and driveways.
• Setting out foundations and footings.
• Marking building lines and boundaries.
• Supporting pathways, patios, and garden edging.
• Landscaping and retaining wall construction.
• Agricultural fencing and temporary site works.

Their pointed ends allow for quick installation while providing secure holding power in a variety of ground conditions.

Choosing the Right Boxing Peg

The required peg length depends on the height of the boxing, soil conditions, and the loads placed on the formwork. Shorter pegs are suitable for smaller residential slabs and paths, while longer H4 treated stakes provide additional strength for deeper boxing, uneven ground, or larger pours where extra support is required.

For projects where the pegs will remain in the ground, H4 treated timber offers greater durability and resistance to decay. Untreated pegs are generally preferred when the formwork will be stripped after the concrete has set.
