Install Landscape Fabrics & Weed Barriers In Your Garden
Sandbaggy Landscape fabric staples are perfect for installing any type of landscape fabric, weed barrier, or erosion control netting in your yard! These landscape staples are extra wide, ideal for situations where a wider landscape staple is needed, such as holding down large pvc pipes. They are also extremely heavy duty, coming in either an 8 or 9 gauge steel option, so they won't bend during installation, even in hard rocky soil.
We offer these 2" wide staples in 2 options. We recommend using our 6" landscape staples for rockier soils and our longer 8" landscape staples for softer soils. See specifications for each below:

FAQ
How many landscape staples do I need for my landscape fabric project?

| 3' x 50' | 100 staples |
| 3' x 150' | 300 staples |

What's the difference between round top and square top sod staples?
Square top
Square top sod staple have a flat top.
Square top sod staples are typically used for securing landscape fabric, weed barrier fabric, dog fences & electric fences, controlling weed, securing synthetic turf, and holding sod.
Round top
Round top sod staples are rounded at the top.
Round top sod staples are typically used to hold down irrigation pipes and PVC pipes.
What gauge and size of landscape staples (sod staples) should I buy?
Gauge
The lower the gauge number, the thicker and stronger the metal.
With compact soil, use landscape staples with a lower gauge, i.e. 8 gauge, so that the staples don't snap while hammering them into the ground.
With normal or looser soil, use landscape staples with a higher gauge, i.e. 11 gauge.
11-gauge staples are suitable for most applications.
Size
Longer staples work better in looser soils.
The added length ensures that the landscape staple will not move after installation.
For most soils, 6" x 1" x 6" staples will work.
For looser soils, use longer staples, such as 9" x 1" x 9" or 12" x 1" x 12" staples.
Will these staples fit over a 1/2-inch PVC pipe?
The staples are 2" wide, which is more than enough space to fit over the 1/2-inch PVC pipe.
As staples are 6" long, 5" of the staple should be in the ground.
This is enough to anchor the pipe so long as the soil isn't too loose.
For PVC pipes, we recommend round top staples, as the rounded top fits better over the pipe than a square top.
