Metallics SHK120 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size are the Metallics SHK120 J-hooks and how many come in a pack?
The SHK120 is a 2-3/4 inch J-hook made from .190 diameter steel with a zinc finish, sold 100 to a pack.
2) Will a 2-3/4 inch J-hook be big enough for my cable bundle?
The SHK120 gives a 2-3/4 inch hook opening, which is the mid-size in the J-hook range and the usual pick for a moderate bundle of low voltage or data cable. For a heavier bundle you want a 4 inch hook instead, and for a few runs of coax or a couple of Cat cables a 3/4 or 1-5/16 inch hook is less hardware to hang.
3) How do the SHK120 J-hooks ship, loose in a box or on a reel?
They come reel packed, 100 pieces per reel, which keeps them feeding in order instead of loose in a bag when a crew is running a long hook line down a corridor.
4) Is a J-hook like the SHK120 an acceptable substitute for conduit or cable tray?
No. A J-hook is a support for open cable runs, typically low voltage, communications and data cable in accessible spaces above a ceiling or along a wall. It provides no enclosure or mechanical protection, so where the job calls for conduit or tray on the drawing, the hook does not satisfy it. Use hooks where the spec allows open supported runs.
5) Does the SHK120 J-hook include a mounting clip or screw?
What you get is the 2-3/4 inch zinc plated steel hook itself, 100 per reel. Any attachment hardware, a screw into wood or stud, a beam clamp, a threaded rod clip or a C-clip for flange mounting, is ordered separately to match the structure you are fastening to.
6) Are the SHK120 J-hooks zinc plated for damp or unheated areas?
They are steel with a zinc finish, which is a standard plating for dry and normally dry interior work such as unheated mechanical rooms or garages. Zinc plated steel is not intended for direct exposure to weather or corrosive wash-down areas.
