I'm struggling to find the right search term.

With our previous Hymer B544 motor home we had a Fiamma wind out awning with an awning channel on the outside.
At a Peterborough show we bought some triangular thingies which fitted into the awning channel, and had a circular brass ring in the middle of the triangle.
This meant you could use guy ropes to tie down the wind out awning as an alternative/addition to the Fiamma awning straps.

Can't find them at the moment and as far as I can recall we left ours with the Hymer.

Does anyone have some or know of a good search term to find some?

Interesting, but not what I was looking for (I think)

The ones I had were made from something like awning skirt (could indeed have been awning skirt) and a brass eyelet ring.

I had already designed something similar in my head and was wondering about the best way to make them when I saw them at the show.

I just use ratchet straps with S hooks and hook them on the top of awning leg joint and I have a spring on the peg end.

I use the ones made by lillypad leisure, very strong
 
I use Lilly Pad ones which have been fine but be aware they did tell me there are three sizes of channel in the awnings and if you have ones which are to small they can pull out.
