Categories Related to Pin Anchors
A pin anchor is a fastening stake used to secure a sheet of agricultural land.
Metal pin anchors are distributed, and there are a wide variety of types, including T-shaped and U-shaped pin anchors. Anchoring with pin anchors is completed by simply driving the pin into the ground using a hammer or other tool that is around you.
In addition, by inserting a special washer between the pin and the sheet, the load on the sheet around the pin can be reduced, thus keeping the sheet stable for a long period. However, care should be taken not to hit the sheet with a missed hammer strike, as this may result in tearing.
Pin anchors are used to keep sheets or nets in close contact with the ground. Examples are weed prevention sheets to prevent weed growth through shading and anti-scattering nets to consolidate and place materials to be placed on agricultural land. Sheets, especially when exposed to rain and wind, can become detached.
Pin anchors are useful because exposed soil can cause weed growth and other harmful effects. They are often used especially in windy areas and seasons. In addition, Pin anchors are used to secure nets to protect against animal and bird damage or pests.
There is a wide variety of pin anchors available. In addition to the shape and size of the pin anchor, some have a body that pierces the soil and a tip that is processed according to the hardness and properties of the soil.
It is important to understand the conditions of the site where the pin anchor will be used and to select the right type for the intended use.
This is the most common L-shaped pin anchor. They are resistant to distortion, easy to work with, and have a smooth surface for safety.
This is a U-shaped pin anchor. The U-shaped pin anchor has a high anchoring force because the tip pierces in two places, and it can sturdily anchor even coarse nets. It is also characterized by its resistance to falling out.
Similar in shape to the U-shaped pin anchor, this type of pin is characterized by the fact that one end is shorter than the other. They are less prone to damage and can be used to hook and finely secure nets.
This is an L-shaped pin anchor with an uneven surface and a screw-shaped tip. The uneven surface acts as an anti-slip device, making it difficult to pull out and sturdy enough to fix in place.
Pin anchors come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and characteristics. L-shaped Pin anchors are generally used when the wind is not blowing very strong and high anchoring force is not required, or when workability is a priority.
The shape, thickness, and length of the pin anchor can be selected according to the size and coarseness of the net to be used and the required high anchoring force.
After the net is set up, drive the pin anchor into the net by hooking it to the net. If the ground is soft, it is possible to drive them in with your foot, but if the ground is hard, it is important to use a hammer to carefully drive them in, as forcing them in may distort the pin anchors.
The number of pins needed to secure the anchor varies depending on the size and type of pin anchor, so use as many as needed. If the pins are not hammered in properly, they can easily come loose when strong winds blow or even if a foot catches on them while working, so it is necessary to hammer the pin anchors deeply down to the base of the pins.
As a precaution, if the pin anchor is driven close to the ridges, it may damage the crop roots. It is important to drive the pin anchor at a position and angle that does not affect the crop.
