TieStrap 2.0 – Your Versatile Helper for Secure Camping Setup

A relaxing camping trip starts with a safe and stable setup – exactly where the (PP25) TieStrap 2.0 comes in handy. Whether it’s an awning, caravan awning, or pavilion, this clever strap system keeps everything steady and secure, even when the wind picks up. But why exactly do you need it, how do you use it correctly, and how does it fit perfectly into the Peggy Peg system? Let’s take a closer look, step by step.
Why do I need the TieStrap 2.0?
The TieStrap 2.0 is ideal for securely fastening awnings, caravan awnings, or pavilions. It becomes essential when you mount side panels using the Fix&Go AntiFlap system – because the elastic straps can no longer be used once the side panels are attached. In this case, the TieStrap 2.0 provides additional wind protection and stability.
Key Benefits at a Glance:
- Versatile Use: Perfect for awnings, caravan awnings, and pavilions (when combined with the Peggy Crocodile and U-Connector)
- Adjustable Length: Flexible from 1.5 to 3 meters – no annoying loose ends
- Strong and Secure: The integrated spring system absorbs wind forces and protects your camping gear
-
No Joint Stress: Forces are distributed to the front bar of the awning rather than onto the awning hinges
How do I use the TieStrap correctly?
The TieStrap 2.0 is simple and well-designed. Here’s how to set it up:
- Use the T-Connector:
Awnings: Slide the supplied T-Connector directly into the awning’s sail track.
Caravan Awning/Sunshades: Place the T-Connector hole over the tent pole pin.
Pavilions/Tents: Use the Peggy Crocodile and U-Connector combination to attach the strap to the fabric. -
Twist the Strap: Turn the strap around its own axis to break the wind at the strap and prevent noise.
- Tighten the Strap: Adjust the strap’s length between 1.5 and 3 meters and pull it tight.
-
Anchor to the Ground: Fasten the strap directly to the ground by screwing through the eyelet of the spring to create a closed system and avoid accidental loosening.
You can also secure the strap with the Anchor Plate 1.0, Fix&Go Anchor Plate 2.0 or Fix&Go Anchor Plate XL directly at the storm hook, ensuring more than one screw peg holds the strap in place.- The strap can be attached directly down to the awning foot with the anchor plate to avoid tripping hazards in tight spaces.
-
Or, if space allows, strap forward at a 45° angle to distribute the wind load across two additional anchor points.
- Optimize the Spring System: Ensure the integrated relief spring is positioned correctly – always near the ground so there’s no leverage on the screw peg. The spring absorbs wind forces and prevents damage to your camping equipment. Attach the supplied hooks above the spring at its lowest point to avoid the spring sliding up.

Practical Tips: Make It Even Better
👉 Tip 1: Twist the strap before tightening – this prevents it from flapping noisily in the wind.
👉 Tip 2: If the screw peg is firmly anchored, fix the eyelet of the spring close to the ground for extra stability.
👉 Tip 3: Ensure the spring system remains free to move – only then can it effectively absorb wind forces.
