Quick answer
Choose UNA Pegs if you often set up on the ground or want to expand your rainfly coverage; choose WebLocks if you prioritize lighter tree setups and don't need ground anchoring.
Different jobs, different trade-offs
UNA Pegs and WebLocks solve different problems. Pegs are about securing your tent to the ground and adjusting your rainfly, while WebLocks replace a ratchet to cut weight in tree setups. Knowing which job matters more to you will point to the right accessory.
If you use your Tentsile on the ground, pegs are non-negotiable. Without them, you can't anchor the inner tent or rainfly properly. WebLocks won't help you there. Conversely, if you only hang between trees, pegs add weight you don't need, and WebLocks offer a lighter way to tension your tent.
Weight and packability
WebLocks are designed as a lighter alternative to a ratchet, which directly reduces the weight you carry. That's a clear win for backpackers or anyone counting ounces. UNA Pegs, on the other hand, are small but you may need up to six of them for a full ground setup, which adds up in your pack.
Consider how often you switch between ground and tree setups. If you rarely pitch on the ground, carrying six pegs might feel like dead weight. If you do both, you'll need to decide whether the versatility justifies the extra ounces.
How to choose
- Ground setups: If you plan to use your UNA on the ground, you need 6 pegs total: 3 for the inner tent and 3 for the rainfly. WebLocks cannot anchor a ground pitch. Count your pegs before a ground trip—six is the full set.
- Tree-only setups: WebLocks replace one ratchet to reduce weight, making them ideal for hammock camping where every ounce counts. Pegs are unnecessary if you never touch the ground. Weigh your setup: WebLocks save weight, pegs add it.
- Mixed use: If you switch between ground and tree camping, consider carrying both: pegs for ground nights and WebLocks to lighten tree hangs. This covers all scenarios but adds cost and pack weight. Plan your kit based on your most common campsite type.

UNA Pegs (Triple-Pack): UNA Pegs can be used many different ways, including pegging out your rainfly for increased ventilation and expanding usable covered floor area beneath your UNA 1-Person Hammock Tent.
