About this product
This heavy duty ground spike keeps your rotary clothes dryer firmly in place, so it stays steady when you're hanging out the washing or if the weather picks up. It fits rotary dryers with 32mm, 35mm, 38mm, 40mm, 45mm or 50mm diameter centre poles, which means it works with most models without fuss. You can drive it straight into firm ground for a quick setup, or use concrete if you want a permanent fixing that isn't going anywhere.
The spike comes with a cap and an installation tool to make the job straightforward. It's built to last and backed with a three-year guarantee from the manufacturer. Simple, reliable kit that does exactly what you need - gives your dryer a solid base and keeps it upright through everyday use and whatever the weather throws at it.
- Size H39, W5.5, D5.5cm.
- Manufacturer's 3 year guarantee.

Customers Say
The ground spike is sturdy, versatile with multiple inserts for different pole sizes, easy to install, and good value. Some users noted wobble issues due to plastic inserts, but overall it provides stable support for rotary washing lines.

Just right for the job
Just right for a job. Used to construct a garden arch.

Five stars plus!
This ground spike offered a sturdy fix for our rotary washing line. Concreted in but, depending on soil, may have been sufficient without. Excellent design features such as the fitting to protect the spike when hammering into ground. And series of inner tubes with varying diameters which should allow a snug fit for any washing line pole. All for a very reasonable price!

Good purchase👍
Good value for money and adaptable for different diameters of washing line poles. Pleased with purchase. Will be easy to install but I will put it in concrete for permanent use.

Terrible fit
Shame that the plastic collars, provided to cope with different pole diameters, were so poor in fit the dryer will not stay vertical, leaning all the time

Easy to fit wobble eliminator.
Excellent idea as my washing line is a bit wobbly, these inserts have done the job, my line is straight & wobble free now. I didn’t need the metal spike as one came with the washing line I’d brought from Argos this week too. So maybe selling the set of plastic inserts without the metal spike would be a good idea as an option. They seem pretty solid but time will tell on that. The kit comes with several inserts so it will fit most washing lines easily. The kit was easy to fit.

Not very strong adaptors
I should have trusted the reviews a bit more. My rotary line pole uses the smallest adaptor but as others have said it wobbles around terribly. The tubes are fairly soft plastic so are not very supportive.

Good quality & value
Really pleased with the ground spike, the installation cap differentiates this spike from others I have bought in the past. Excellent value.

My rev
Perfect for what we needed
We have now installed this item into our garden and have found it works exactly as intended. We installed it into the ground and used post-concrete to secure it into the ground before burying it. We used the installation cap to install the item and it also came with a cap to cover the post when it is not in use, however we personally prefer to use the installation when we are not using the post.

No, its only suitable for a 50 mm line post.
Hello Lunar,
The Argos Home Heavy Duty Multi Fit Ground Spike & Cap is designed to be put into the ground, rather than porcelain slabs.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hello Jo.
Argos Home Heavy Duty Multi Fit Ground Spike & Cap:
For most gardens with firm soil, the spike alone is usually fine.
If your rotary airer wobbles, or if the ground is loose, adding post mix will make it completely stable.
Thank you for using Q & A.

No it will not, if it can accommodate a 50mm pole and spec says it is 5.5cm it obviously wont fit into a 40mm hole in concrete

Hello Basil,
I can advise the following for the Argos Home Heavy Duty Multi Fit Ground Spike & Cap:
Apologies, no, you can only do this from big to small, not the other way around. You would need to change the ground spike to a 45mm one.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hi Rubyred69,
Yes the Home Heavy Duty Multi Fit Ground Spike & Cap is designed to fit multiple pole sizes, including 32mm, 35mm, 38mm, 40mm, 45mm, and 50mm. The inserts are meant to slot inside each other, allowing you to adjust the fit for smaller poles like your 32mm pole. This helps reduce wobbling and ensures a secure hold in the larger spike hole.
Thank you for using Q&A

I fixed mine in with concrete as it kept tilting in grass. It's quite chunky on the smaller size lines and you will have to use the all the adjusters.
