Angled stakes hold 1/4" tubing securely in place in a way that virtually eliminates kinks and clogs. The angle of the stake works with the natural curve of rubber tubing. Tubing can become crimped when forced to make a 90-degree turn. By using a 60-degree angle, these obstructions can be avoided. These 60-degree angled stakes provide smoother water delivery from the attached tubing than other stakes.
