MSR Cyclone 10-Inch Tent Stake – 4-Pack, Red, Spiral Design

When wind and ground conditions matter, the MSR Cyclone 10-inch tent stake delivers a thoughtful balance of strength and portability. The spiral design creates a solid anchor point in soft soil, making it well suited for securing large shelters and tarps in breezy environments. While not a guarantee, users may experience more dependable holds in forgiving ground, especially when paired with proper tensioning and staking patterns.

Solid anchor in soft soil

The distinctive spiral geometry is engineered to grip soft ground without excessive effort, helping you establish a reliable point of attachment for tents or tarps. This design is particularly advantageous where traditional stakes struggle to gain grip, offering a practical solution for uneven or loamy terrain.

Premium materials for all-weather use

Crafted from lightweight 7000-series aluminum, these stakes strike a balance between strength and carry-friendly weight. Each stake weighs about 1.2 ounces and measures 10 inches, giving you a compact unit that still provides meaningful holding power. The reflective pull loop adds visibility and aids in quick removal when time or light is limited.

What’s in the kit

Sold as a four-pack, these stakes give you a consistent set for a tent, windbreak, or tarp setup. The kit approach helps ensure a uniform anchor system across multiple attachment points, which can simplify setup and reduce guesswork in the field.
