I purchased these for Oshkosh Airventure, parking on the grass. They are lightweight, very strong and in a nice transport bag.

All in all, I was pretty impressed with this tie-down kit. Light weight, but very firm grip on the ground. Three pieces. And enough line for the tiedown lines included. Hammer included (though semi-lightweight naturally.)

Delivered the day after I ordered. I purchased two of these in order to make up there tie down kits for RV taildraggers. The claw doesn’t work so well for tying down the tail on an RV - we have a different solution for that tie down point.

Tried them just a couple days after receiving, they worked great in gravel. Hammer is small but does the trick.

The Claw kit, though a bit heavy because it also includes a hammer for the stakes, works well and gives me peace of mind when securing my vintage Tri-Pacer at unfamiliar airports.

Worked good. Make sure you cut the rope to length before your first use. Wish they were lighter but...

The kit feels well made, and once installed was solid, however, I have not yet subjected it to any real loads. The only issue I have so far is that the hammer provided was too light to adequately set the pins in the sand/gravel soils I encountered.

Used for the first time at Oshkosh. Fortunately we didn’t have to test them to the limits of wind and rain. Let’s hope it stays that way.

We survived the 50 mph winds at Oshkosh with the claw tie down. A must have if you are going to tie down at Oshkosh! Tim

Used this at OSH21 during several significant storms. I used it to tie down my PA-16 (light weight taildragger) which is a prime candidate to blow away in a wind storm. The Claw kept it solidly tied down throughout the week. I will likely use some higher quality rope with it in the future, but the supplied rope seemed plenty strong.
There are DIY options out there that work just as well, but for the price, The Claw appealed to my laziness. Great product.

Excellent product! Purchased at 2021 OSH to secure my RV7 and held my A/C in place during a significant storm. Highly recommended!

Worked like a champ out on a dry lakebed. I any improvement would be in the form of ratcheting straps. Otherwise, it is great.

This is the second set of tie downs I’ve bought for use in two locations. The Claw works wonderfully and I’ve been very happy with it.

Very durable but a couple comments.
The rope is supplied in one piece, you have to cut it and fasten it to the claw.
The lightweight hammer (say 3/4 size) works pretty well for installation, but, the clawfoot size made it hard to remove the spikes.
Ill improve mine before next use.

Much to my surprise, the kit did not include the hammer. However, Customer Service was very helpful in responding that one was on the way…

Not the highest quality hammer or rope, but good system that should work great when travelling between grass strips and back country environments.

Looks well made. One addition would be a clip to allow you to easily remove the rope from the claw and attach it to an airport tie down system

It’s a bit expensive and a bit heavy but it works well in the rocky soils common in new England which can be a problem for screw anchors.
I need only 2 so spares are less of a problem.
The reported breakages of anchors are a concern, however.

Nice kit, works good, but I also had one of the nails heads come off. Whats the deal there?
No spare parts available at Spruce for this item.

Used this at the Cessna 150-152 Club Fly-In and at AirVenture. My only complaint was that when pounding in one of the spikes the head came off. That was the bad news. The good news is that it happened at AirVenture so I just went to the Claw booth in the vendor area with the head of the nail and showed it to them. They knew exactly what happened and gave me a new spike on the spot.

Head come off mine too and the hammer broke when pulling the spikes out
