Supermarket Shelf Single-Wire Hook

L:100/150/200/250/300/350/400(mm)

Core Advantages

    Hole pattern compatibility: Rear plate dimensions match standard retail pegboard hole patterns (25mm or 32mm pitch, 6–8mm rectangular or round holes), requiring no shelf modification.

    Single-wire formed structure: Formed from one continuous wire with no welded joints, eliminating weld failure points.

    Graded length selection: Seven fixed lengths covering short-reach (e.g., small candy packs) to long-reach (e.g., bagged noodles, cleaning tools) display needs.

    Upward tip angle: Hanging end bent upward to form an anti-slip stop, reducing accidental product fall-off during customer retrieval.

Product Features

    Material & wire diameter: Carbon steel wire. Diameter range: 4.0mm–6.0mm (selectable). Surface finishes include zinc plating (bright or blue-white zinc) or black electrophoretic coating.

    Mounting method: Rear backplate straight-plug installation. Some models include anti-disengagement springs or positioning dimples on the plate back.

    Hook geometry: Straight horizontal arm with upward bent tip (15°–30°). Burr-free arm surface.

    Reference load capacity: For a 5mm wire diameter and 250mm length, the reference load is 3–5kg under uniform loading. Actual capacity depends on hole anchorage strength.

    Label compatibility: Front section can accommodate price tag clips (optional) or small adhesive labels.

Application Scenarios

    Supermarket snack aisles: Hanging bagged chips, cookies, dried noodles, instant noodles.

    Household goods section: Displaying dishcloths, scrub brushes, gloves, and small tools with hanging holes or loops.

    Hardware retail areas: Hanging tape measures, screwdriver sets (with hang cards), and electrical tape.

    Convenience store checkout zones: Displaying small candy packs, gum, lighters, batteries—high-turnover small items.

Common Issues & Solutions

    Issue: The hook is loose or easily pulls out from the pegboard.
    Solution: Verify that backplate thickness matches the shelf hole tolerance (standard clearance ≤0.3mm). For loose fits, select backplates with anti-slip springs or textured surfaces. Push the plate fully to the bottom of the hole slot.

    Issue: Different shelf brands have different hole pitches. Is this hook universal?
    Solution: Measure hole pitch (common: 25mm or 32mm) and hole shape before ordering. Standard version fits 25mm-pitch rectangular holes or 32mm-pitch round holes. Custom plate positions are available for other pitches.

    Issue: Does the hook sag or deform after long-term use?
    Solution: Avoid exceeding the reference load. For heavier items (e.g., >5kg), select shorter length (≤200mm) or thicker wire (≥5.5mm), and shorten inspection intervals to every 3 months.

    Issue: Will surface rust on the hook contaminate products?
    Solution: For humid environments (e.g., near fresh or refrigerated sections), select zinc plating with a thickness ≥12μm or black electrophoretic coating. Avoid black-oxide-only finishes. Replace immediately if rust is visible.

Product Precautions

    Mounting orientation: Must be installed horizontally with the upward-bent tip facing up. Inverted or sideways installation is prohibited.

    Hanging item types: Suitable for items with hanging holes, loops, or those that can be wrapped around the hook. Not suitable for open bags or bulk items without fixed loops.

    Spacing requirement: Centre-to-centre distance between adjacent hooks should not be less than 1.2x the product width to avoid interference.

    Regular inspection: Recommend monthly spot checks of backplate-to-hole fixation and tip bend angle for deformation.

    Cleaning method: Use neutral detergent and a soft cloth. Do not use steel wool or acid-based cleaners, which may damage the surface coating.
