What is the size of the hole down the center of the ground tube?
The diameter of the hole in the stainless steel tube, in which the solid stainless steel rod of the guide slides into, is 0.55 inches, or 14mm.
What is the outside diameter of the ground stake/tube?
The outside of the tube is 18mm (+/-0.3mm), so it is 0.7 inches to 0.72 in

Very sturdy product. Shipped quickly. I saw this at a friend’s house and immediately ordered. It’s packed away for the season and I can’t wait to use it next year.

Why not only sell guides???
These are great items to protect hoses and aid them smoothly going around corners. Why the middling rating? Because the company will not sell the guides separately which I've had stolen and damaged by mowers over the years. These aren't exactly cheap. The company sells the spike by itself. Why not only the guides at a slightly reduced price... like they do for the spikes? I have asked it repeatedly over the years as to why, but zero response. Yes, I realize the company can do whatever it wants, but from a customer's perspective, it's not an outrageous question. Alas, my rating. To complete this review, I must answer the question regarding if I'd recommend it to a friend and my only choices are yes or no and not a maybe or something similar.

Excellent Product
This is exactly what we were looking for. It is made exceptionally well and has been worth the price so far. The hose glides effortlessly through it and has made watering my garden so much easier.
