EZ HUG
Modular Weight CombinationS
The EZ HUG accessory line expands the power and flexibility of your EZ BLOCK system by allowing you to combine the weight of multiple blocks into a single, cohesive unit. This provides the ability to create customized, super-heavy ballast foundations in a modular fashion to meet the exact weight and footprint requirements of any project.
Why the EZ HUG?
The purpose of the EZ HUG is simple: to “HUG” multiple EZ BLOCKs together.
100% Solid Steel: Just like the ballasts themselves, every EZ HUG unit is constructed from solid steel, ensuring maximum strength, durability, and a clean, non-variable performance.
Modular Weight: Instead of using one massive, fixed-weight ballast, the EZ HUG allows you to combine the 500 lb. EZ BLOCKs and 350 lb. EZ BLOCK CUBEs in custom groupings. This means you can create ballast points of 1000 lb., 1500 lb., 2000 lb., and more by simply bolting the blocks together.
Flexibility and Efficiency: Combine the exact amount of weight you need for a specific structure or wind load. The system can be disassembled easily after use, making transport and storage efficient.
WHO NEEDS A HUG?
EZ HUG SIZES
The EZ HUG is available in a variety of configurations, designated by the number of blocks they are designed to connect. The naming convention refers to the dimensions of the rectangular grouping of blocks it can accommodate (e.g., 2x3 means 2 blocks wide by 3 blocks deep).

TENT BALLASTS? YUP!

EZ BLOCK TENT Connector “ETC”
Single-Point Anchoring: EZ Block Tent Connector
The EZ Block Tent Connector is an essential mounting accessory that transforms your EZ Block into a secure, heavy-duty anchor for temporary structures, tents, and canopies. It provides a dedicated, universal connection point that firmly holds poles against harsh winds and ground forces.
Why the EZ Block Tent Connector?
The purpose of the EZ Block Tent Connector is simple: to provide a secure, sleeved mounting point for tent support poles
Direct Bolt-On Stability: The connector plate bolts directly to the top of the EZ Block using four 5/8 Hex Bolts and Nuts. This multi-point connection ensures the accessory is locked into the ballast, creating one unified, stable base.
Universal Pole Sleeve: It features a strong vertical pipe designed to accept a tent pole, providing deep insertion into the EZ BLOCK and stable support for the structure above.
Positive Locking Mechanism: A pole inserted into the sleeve is secured in place with Truss Bolts. These bolts thread into welded nuts on the pipe, functioning as a set screw to positively lock the tent pole against the massive weight of the EZ Block.
Heavy-Duty Construction: Built from robust materials, the plate measures 12′′ x 12′′, ensuring a wide, stable footprint and maximum structural integrity for your entire setup.
