FAQs
Are these clips suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the bright zinc plated finish provides good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for sheds and sheltered outdoor areas.
Can these hold heavy gardening tools?
Yes, they are designed to hold items like rakes and brooms, but ensure they are mounted into solid wood or masonry for maximum weight support.
What is the finish on these clips?
They feature a bright zinc plated finish for aesthetic appeal and improved durability.
Do these come with screws?
Please check your specific package contents, as mounting hardware is not always included with every retail unit.
Can I use these to hang heavy pipes?
They can support moderate weights, but for extremely heavy industrial piping, ensure you are using multiple clips to distribute the load.
Troubleshooting
Clip does not hold the tool firmly
Ensure the item diameter is compatible with the specific size of the clip or check if the clip tension has been accidentally widened.
Clip is wobbling on the wall
Tighten the mounting screws or verify that the wall plugs are correctly sized for the drilled holes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires basic hand tools including a drill, appropriate wall plugs, and screws suitable for your specific wall material (brick, wood, or drywall). To install, mark your drill points while holding the clip against the wall, drill the pilot hole, and secure the clip firmly.
Regarding care, these clips are low-maintenance. While the zinc plating provides a protective barrier, it is recommended to keep them clear of harsh chemical cleaners. If used in high-humidity areas, inspect them periodically for any signs of surface wear or debris buildup to ensure the tension remains consistent. If you find the grip loosening over time, check that the mounting screws have not worked loose from the wall substrate.
