WHICH TENSIONING KIT IS BEST FOR ME?

The job of the tensioning system is to keep your cover taut — not simply keep it from blowing away. Proper tension helps rain and snow shed off the cover, keeps the fabric working the way it was designed to, and makes maintenance easier throughout the season.

PIN KIT

HOW IT WORKS

Pins push directly through the tarp and into the bales every 10–15 ft ensuring tarp is taut

PIN KIT_edited.png

BEST FOR

Those who want fast easy setup and don't mind occasional re-tensioning as bales settle

PRO'S

  • Lightweight and comes ready to use — no prep required

  • Fast setup — step on tarp to tension then drive pin into bale

  • Easily closes the face and back of your stack

  • Convenient zippered storage bag — pin it to your bale stack

  • Non-woven fiber technology prevents pin holes from spreading — does not void warranty

THINGS TO CONSIDER

  • Requires you to push holes into your tarp

  • Needs re-tensioning from time to time as bales settle and shrink

GRAVEL BAG KIT

HOW IT WORKS

Gravel bags attach directly to the tarp via hook and loop tarp tape and hang along the sides — the weight applies constant downward tension automatically

BEST FOR

Those who want less ongoing maintenance and don't mind extra setup time upfront

PRO'S

  • Set it and forget it solution — Less ongoing maintenance, bags keep tarp taut as bales settle and shrink

  • Multi-purpose tools — use bags for other chores when not being used on hay tarps

THINGS TO CONSIDER

  • More upfront work — bags arrive empty and must be filled on site

  • Face and back of stack harder to close — use tarp tape once enough bales are removed

COMBO KIT

HOW IT WORKS

Half Pin Kit + Half Gravel Bag Kit — Use pins on the difficult spots and gravel bags along the sides for complete tension and coverage from every angle

  • Works for every tarp size — one combo fits all

  • Never caught without the right solution

  • Perfect for multiple storage locations or changing conditions

Maximum flexibility and the freedom to tension your hay cover the way that works best for your stack and the current conditions
