Built for reliable pitching

The Easy Camp Rubber/Steel Mallet is the tool that turns a fiddly pitch into a quick one. A dense rubber head drives tent pegs cleanly and firmly, while the steel shaft supplies the weight and rigidity you need to seat pegs in tougher ground. It is a simple, honest piece of kit that earns its place in every camping box.

Kind to your pegs

Swinging a bare metal hammer at plastic pegs is how they split and how metal pegs mushroom over. The non-marking rubber face grips the peg head and spreads the impact, so your pegs last longer and go in straighter. Less bounce and less noise mean faster, calmer pitching, even at a busy site.

Compact and packable

Lightweight and slim, the mallet slides easily into a kit bag or the boot organiser without taking up valuable space. It is equally at home pitching a lightweight backpacking tent or knocking in the pegs and guy lines on a family awning.

Everyday camping value

From a trusted outdoor brand, this mallet delivers dependable performance at a keen price, making it an easy addition to any camping or festival packing list. Browse the rest of our outdoor clothing and gear to complete your kit.

Frequently asked questions

What is a rubber and steel camping mallet used for?

It is designed to drive tent pegs into the ground and, on some designs, help pull them out again. The rubber head strikes pegs firmly without damaging them, while the steel shaft gives the weight and rigidity you need to seat pegs in harder ground.

Why choose a rubber head over a metal hammer?

A rubber head spreads the impact and grips the peg head, so it is far less likely to split plastic pegs or mushroom the tops of metal ones. It also reduces bounce and noise, making pitching quicker and kinder to your pegs.

Will it work in hard or stony ground?

The steel shaft adds mass and stability, which helps in compacted or stony ground. For very hard pitches use steel or rock pegs and drive them with steady, controlled strikes rather than swinging harder.

Is this mallet suitable for large family tents?

Yes. It handles the pegs and guy lines used on family tents, awnings and gazebos. For very large frame tents with heavy-duty steel pegs a bigger mallet may speed things up, but this size covers most touring and family setups.

How should I store the mallet to keep it in good condition?

Wipe the steel shaft dry before packing it away to prevent surface rust, and store it in a dry part of your kit. Keeping the rubber head free of grit helps it stay clean and non-marking.
