Many Display and Scan Hooks are capable of mounting to multiple surfaces. But not all Hooks interchange with all surfaces. This Hammer Holder functions equally well as a Pegboard and Slatwall Fixture. There are however several different specifications of Pegboard, as well as variations in Slatwall and Channel Insert Slatwall. How to Specify Display Hook Gauge requires you check the fine print of the manufacturers catalog for qualifiers and footnotes like …
Standard Gauge – Fits 1/8” 3/16” and 1/4 Pegboard
Medium Gauge – Fits 1/8” 3/16” and 1/4” Pegboard and Slatwall
Heavy Gauge – Fits 1/4” Pegboard and Slatwall
Extra Heavy Gauge – Fits 1/4” Pegboard, Slatwall, and Perforated Metal
These qualifiers (Actually used in my day-job company’s catalog at Trion Industries) will narrow your selection range considerably. Then consult with the manufacturer’s representative to further refine, double check your choice, and get professional recommendations on unique alternates. Finally all reputable manufacturers encourage you to request free samples to test in your situation and use environment. Go through all these steps and checks and you won’t wake up to a truckload of 100,000 hooks that don’t serve the intended purpose.
