Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material is the hook made from?

The hook is forged from cast iron with a powder-coated finish.

Can this hook be used in a bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to the nature of cast iron and its susceptibility to rust.

What are the dimensions of the hook?

The hook measures approximately W30mm x H105mm.

Does it come with fittings?

Yes, the product comes with screw fixings for installation.

How should I clean the hook?

Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Regular maintenance with a household wax polish is recommended to prevent rusting.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 2-year warranty.

Why do I need to drill a pilot hole?

A pilot hole is necessary to prevent the screw from shearing when you tighten it into the cast iron material.

Can I use a power drill to install the hook?

No, you should only tighten the screws by hand. Using a power screwdriver or drill is not recommended and can lead to the screw shearing.

Troubleshooting

Screw will not tighten or shears during installation

Ensure a pilot hole has been drilled. Hand-tighten screws slowly and carefully. Avoid using power tools for tightening.

Hook appears to be rusting

This is common with cast iron in certain environments. Increase the frequency of applying household wax polish to the surface to protect it. Ensure the hook is not in a damp area.

Hook feels loose on the wall

Check if the wall fixing is secure. If the pilot hole is too large, consider using a wall anchor appropriate for your wall type. Ensure the screw is fully hand-tightened.
