Tonkin sticks, also known as plant stakes, are thin yet sturdy bamboo sticks widely prized for their stability. They are ideal for horticultural applications, such as supporting crops, plants, and flowers. Thanks to their minimal taper, these sticks offer consistent and reliable support along their entire length. Additionally, Tonkin sticks feature thick walls, providing the extra strength needed for mechanical installation.

Our 18/20 mm diameter Tonkin bamboo sticks are available in various lengths and are perfect for supporting plants like beans and tomatoes. This product is in stock and available for delivery or collection in Beverwijk. Whether you need a single stick, a bundle, or want to place a bulk order, at Masters of Bamboo you benefit from competitive prices and fast delivery.

  • Diameter: The diameter of each bamboo stake is precisely measured at the base, which is the thickest side of the stick. Because bamboo is a natural product, the diameter of this stick can vary between 18/20 mm.
  • Natural Progression: A typical characteristic of bamboo sticks/poles is the natural gradient in thickness, the base of the stick is thicker than the top. How strong this gradient is depends on the type of bamboo and the length of the pole. With this bamboo pole the gradient is ± 5% over a length of 1.50 meters
  • Straight Bamboo Stick: Tonkin sticks are known for their straight shape. Although they are generally quite straight, bamboo remains a natural product, so 100% perfectly straight sticks cannot be guaranteed.
  • Vertical Cracks: Like wood, bamboo expands or shrinks with changes in temperature or humidity, which can cause vertical cracks in the bamboo. This is a natural process. These cracks do not affect the strength of the stick and are part of the character of the material.
  • Strong and Durable: Tonkin poles are exceptionally strong and flexible, making them highly resistant to stress and long-lasting. They are ideal for structural and support applications.
  • Lightweight: Despite their strength, Tonkin bamboo sticks are lightweight, making them easy to handle for a variety of projects, from gardening to construction.
  • Sustainable Natural Product: Bamboo is an environmentally friendly material because it grows quickly, and the production of bamboo has a low impact on the environment, making it a sustainable choice.

TREATMENT AND DURABILITY

  1. Support for vegetables, plants and flowers: Tonkin sticks (or plant stakes) are ideal for supporting crops such as tomatoes, rose bushes and other climbing plants. They ensure that your garden plants grow strong and healthy.
  2. Espalier (guiding) trees: Place Tonkin stakes next to your espalier trees to keep them upright in the early stages. This helps to create a strong base, which will benefit the growth of your trees.
  3. Making a plant climbing frame: With bamboo poles you can easily make a climbing frame for roses, climbing plants or bean plants. These plant supports are light, strong and offer excellent support for your garden.
  4. Vegetable garden: Use bamboo plant stakes to support your fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, beans, peas, cucumbers and grapes. They help your crops grow upright and prevent them from falling over.
  5. Support for bamboo hedge(s): Is your bamboo hedge sagging due to rain or snow? With strong Tonkin sticks you can create a stable frame to keep the bamboo in place. This looks natural and provides extra support.
  6. Building with bamboo: Tonkin sticks are perfect for creative building projects such as team building or children's parties. With elastic or rope you can easily make bamboo structures such as towers or pyramids.
  7. Building insect hotels: The hollow structure of Tonkin sticks makes them ideal for making insect hotels. Saw them into pieces and create a shelter for beneficial garden insects.
  8. Making bamboo flutes: The strength and hollow structure of Tonkin sticks makes them suitable for making bamboo flutes, a traditional musical instrument for music lovers.
  9. Bamboo fishing rods: Tonkin sticks can be used as fishing rods for techniques such as float fishing, bottom fishing or fly fishing. Ideal for a light, flexible fishing rod.

Here are some ways you can work and use the bamboo tonkin sticks:

  • Cut: Easily saw the bamboo stick tonkin to the desired length with a fine-toothed saw. This ensures that you get a nice neat cut with minimal splintering.
  • Tie with rope: Use strong rope such as Manila or palm rope to tie the sticks firmly together for garden constructions or supports.
  • Secure with elastic: Elastic is ideal for quickly and flexibly attaching sticks to each other.
  • Drilling holes: Make small holes in the sticks to secure them with screws or wire.
  • Varnish or oil: Treat the sticks with varnish or oil for extra protection and a neat finish.

These tips make bamboo tonkin sticks versatile and easy to use for a variety of projects!

Tonkin sticks are often used in a natural way, such as in agricultural horticulture, in allotments, as support for plants, for building and as an insect hotel. This means that treating bamboo is not necessary.

If you want to protect the Tonkin stick, you can do so with Bamboo Booster Oil. For the part of the bamboo that is placed in the ground, the choice can be made to treat it with Bamboo Ground Protector.

How Strong is Bamboo?

Bamboo is remarkably strong and durable; it is often compared to steel because of its high tensile strength. This means that bamboo can withstand great forces without breaking. This property makes it ideal for applications in construction, furniture, and other products that require robustness.
