Load Leveler Stake Pocket Stakes 26-1/4" High — Military-Grade Aluminum
Freight that sits above the deck rail has nothing holding it in from the side. Chains alone pull down, not in, and a load that walks sideways on the highway is a load that comes off.
These stakes drop into the trailer stake pockets and stand 26-1/4" above the deck. They are military-grade aluminum and weigh 28 lbs each, so they add height to the load without eating into what you can carry.

What the Stakes Are For
A stake pocket stake gives a load something to lean on. Above the deck rail there is nothing else — chains hold down, they do not hold in, and a shifting load finds that out on the first bend.
These stand 26-1/4". That height is the whole spec: too short and the load clears them, too tall and you are carrying weight for nothing.
They also carry the load leveler system on a step deck, so the same stakes serve two jobs on the same trailer.
Aluminum on a Trailer
Each stake weighs 28 lbs. A full set down both sides of a trailer in steel is real payload; in military-grade aluminum it is not.
Steel stakes rust from the bottom of the pocket outward, where you cannot see them, and they end up seized in the pocket. Aluminum does not do that.
They drop in and lift out with no drilling and no welding, so nothing about fitting them changes the trailer permanently.
