You get two straps, two tension springs, and two 15-inch steel ground stakes with anchors and ropes. Simple, honest wind insurance that sets up in about ten minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Camco 42514 awning stabilizer kit does one job, and it does it well. It keeps your RV awning from turning into a sail the second the wind picks up. If you've ever watched a gust get under an open awning and lift it, you already know why this kit matters. One good afternoon breeze can bend a roller arm, tear the fabric, or rip the whole thing off the side of the coach. This kit ties the awning down to the ground so that doesn't happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's what you get in the box. Two heavy straps, two tension springs, two steel ground stakes at 15 inches each, and the ground anchors with anchor ropes to tie it all together. The straps run from the awning down to the stakes you drive into the ground. The tension springs sit in line with the straps and do the quiet work. When a gust hits and the awning wants to lift, the spring stretches and absorbs the shock instead of letting the strap snap tight and yank on your awning rail. That give is the whole trick. It keeps the load off the hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSetup is about as simple as it gets. Pick your spot, drive the two 15-inch steel stakes into the ground at an angle leaning away from the coach, hook the straps to the awning, and snug them down through the tension springs. Ten minutes, no tools beyond something to tap the stakes in. On a grassy or soft campground pad the stakes bite easily. On harder packed sites you'll want to lean into them a bit more, and it's worth carrying a small mallet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit gives you two full anchor points, so you can tie down both ends of the awning for even, balanced tension along the whole length. That's better than pinning down one corner and hoping. Even pressure on both roller arms is what keeps the fabric flat and the arms straight. And because it all comes apart in a couple minutes, there's no reason to leave the awning exposed on a breezy day when the whole setup lives in your storage bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Anybody who leaves an awning out. Travel trailer owners parked for a weekend, motorhome folks set up at a campground for the week, pop-up campers, fifth wheels. If you roll out your awning and walk away to go fishing or run into town, this is the cheap insurance that keeps you from coming back to a mess. It's the kind of gear you buy once and are glad you had the first time a storm rolls through the campground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA word of honesty, because we'd rather sell you the right expectation than oversell the kit. A tie-down kit is built for everyday wind and normal gusts. It is not a substitute for rolling the awning up when real weather is coming. If you see a serious storm on the radar or the wind is really howling, bring the awning in. No strap and stake setup on earth beats a rolled-up awning in a genuine blow. Use this kit for the ordinary breezy afternoons and overnight gusts, and roll it up when things get nasty. Do that and you'll get years out of your awning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe straps themselves are made to shrug off sun and weather so they don't get brittle and chalky after a season in the sun. The steel stakes are stout enough to reuse trip after trip, and the whole kit packs down small enough to live in a basement bay or a storage tote without taking up real room. It's a simple, honest piece of gear that earns its keep the first windy day you're glad you set it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo 15-inch steel ground stakes drive in fast and hold in grass or packed campground pads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo tension springs absorb wind gusts inline, so the shock never reaches your awning rail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo heavy-duty straps tie both ends of the awning down for even, balanced tension.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround anchors with anchor ropes give you two solid tie-down points per setup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeather-resistant straps shrug off sun and moisture without going brittle after a season out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSets up in about ten minutes with no special tools, just something to tap the stakes in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePacks down small enough to stash in a basement bay or storage tote between trips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with travel trailer, fifth wheel, motorhome, and pop-up awnings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Camco reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat comes in the Camco 42514 awning stabilizer kit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYou get two heavy-duty straps, two tension springs, two 15-inch steel ground stakes, and ground anchors with anchor ropes.
