Fat-Bottomed Hooks

Double the Backplate width of normal Flatback Slatwall Display Hooks, these also sport Disk Finials. A fat Flatback Backplate is meant to spread the load and minimize damage to display surfaces. But employed here to merchandise light-weight socks, these Backplates are more a design statement than functional enhancement. So are the Disk Finials and gleaming Chrome plating. Do notice the reinforcing screw through the Slatwall Channel left of the hooks. Maybe this retailer has had heavy items displayed here in the past and is reinforcing his wall and hook capabilities. Normally you should not see screws through a slatwall channel.
