Triton Products Single Rod Pegboard Hook, 3", Silver

I couldn't be more satisfied with this product and all of the Triton durahooks. I used them to hang pots and pans and miscellaneous kitchen cooking devices on a steel covered pegboard in my kitchen. It's great not to have the hook fall out when taking a pot off the pegboard, something that happened frequently with hooks that were not screwed in, as are the Durahooks. I've read reviews that suggested that these hooks are wrongly engineered. That may be, but I would be surprised if anything I could hang on a hook would be able to cause the hook to fall out. They're in the pegboard like a rock. In this respect, it is worth noting that the screw used for fastening needs to be the largest size(they look to be similar to slightly smaller screws, but the correct crew has a blunt end. The slightly smaller screw has a pointed tip) It may be that the hooks are sometimes shipped with the smaller screws by mistake. This would be a problem and should not occur, but, given Amazon's outstanding customer service, should be easily correctable. I can't accuse Triton of sending the wrong sized screws. I have purchased a lot of different Triton hooks, and consequentially, have many hooks and screws lying around that I've opened but not yet used. So, it's likely I mixed up the different sized screws. Whatever the case, if you want a rock solid hook for 1/4" pegboard make sure the screw used has a blunt end, If you do , that hook will never fall out.

I really like the whole DuraHook system. It used to drive me crazy to reach for a tool on the pegboard and have the hook fall off into some irretrievable space. I don't quite get the pricing on these products. Sometimes it can vary as much as $3 dollars on a $10 item. I'd like to tell Triton Products what I'd like to tell the airlines, "Figure what your product costs, add a nice sustainable profit margin to keep your company in business and stop wasting my time playing silly price games."

I have a small furniture shop and have a lot of my tools hanging on pegboards. I have bought this type and the plastic Talon brand from another dealer for several years and have loved them. They come with two different size screws for both sizes of pegboard and they are strong. The other dealer stopped carrying these, so I was glad to find them on my favorite site; Amazon.com.

the hooks are heavy duty, but the mounting design is horrible ant the screws that come with it will not hold in standard peg board I had to mount them with drywall anchors in each screw hole to get them to stay put or the the hooks just fall out. I wound up just screwing them in to OSB and they worked ok. would not buy again.
