The small wire hook fitted to the back of a wall clock, which carries the whole product on a single nail or screw. It is a low cost part in a position where failure means a broken clock on the floor.
Wire size is set against the clock's full weight with margin, because this hook is the only thing holding it.
The hook is shaped to seat correctly in the moulded or pressed recess on the clock back.
Automatic forming in fine wire is what makes a reliable part viable at consumer product prices.
Test hanging on the fixings your market actually uses, not just on a workshop nail. Hook fit against a screw head is where most hanging complaints originate.
Hooks pulling out of the housing and dropping the product
Hook openings too small for a standard screw head

Against a moulded plastic hanging feature, a steel hook carries far more weight for its size and is far less likely to fail in a warm room.
Large enough for a standard screw or nail head with clearance. Tell us the fixing your market uses and we will size it.
Carbon steel needs plating even indoors, since a rusty hook marks the wall behind the product.
Yes. Hook geometry affects how the product sits against the wall, and it is worth checking on samples.
