What is the weight limit on this swivel hook? Do 4 screws come with the swivel hook? If so, what size are the screws?

Weight limit is 250, 4 screws come with, they are large but don't know the size. Works great!

I don't recall the weight rating, but it might have been on the package. I suspect it is >250lbs. There are four lag screws, 1/4" x 2" seems about right from memory. I am VERY happy with this purchase, and I use it with a hammock chair. The ball bearing works well, and the mating surfaces of the hook are lined with nylon. I had been looking for a while and did not find any better hook than this one. It's heavy duty.

I used command hooks that have the metal movable hook that I bought at target and these worked perfectly for holding the weight without damaging my ceilling. Hope this helps!!

I do not know the weight limit on the hooks themselves. In our car(s) they have held backpacks full of books and school stuff, as well as my computer bag. I'm guessing easily can hold 20lbs. if using both "appendages" of the one hook. I can not imagine what one would hang from these hooks that would be too heavy.

I have about 30 lbs on it with just the velrco sticking on. I never installed the top screw. Didn't want to mess with the drilling. I am sure it will hold more just haven't tested it that far yet. I have had it on for over 6 months now. Hope it helps.

I'm not sure, maybe 3-5 lbs if that. We got a regular screw from Lowe's like you would hang for a hanging plant and it held up just fine

According to the packaging, each hook will hold 55 lb. when screwed vertically into wood and 30 lb. when screwed vertically into sheetrock (on a toggle). Please be aware that this hook is a two-part device in which the "hook" is separate from the base or "saddle". The hook drops into a recess in the saddle, so it doesn't slide out, allowing the hook to rotate as desired. Unless you need the rotating capability, a solid hook, such as the STANLEY CD725 Decorative Ceiling Hook, the NATIONAL V2671 Swag Hook, or the NATIONAL V2672 Swag Hook (all available in four finishes) should "do the trick".

I agree with Molly, 10 pounds would be my max for one hook. Consider there are others of thicker gauge that will hold much more.

I suggest you order some extras. I think it only came with 4 or 6 hooks. I ordered a set of large and small hooks in addition and I used all of them. It truly depends on how much you plan on hanging. I have 16 hooks right now. The rack could home more.

According to the packaging, each hook will hold 55 lb. when screwed vertically into wood and 30 lb. when screwed vertically into sheetrock (on a toggle). There is no statement about capacity if mounted horizontally, which would be quite rare. I would imagine it to be quite low, as the load is then "shear" and not "tension". Hope this helps. :)

I haven't used the hooks for anything very heavy but they seem to be quite strong and sturdy. I believe they could easily handle things maybe 40 or 50 pounds.

I would guess the most weight I've put on these hooks is 20#. The hooks are very strong...I'd worry more about the (pull of the weight on the) rafter than the strength of the hook. Be aware though, the "lip" on the hook is not very tall. I would suggest using at least 2 hooks per tire. It helps keep the hook from "leaning" sidways.

The construction itself will allow for more weight than I imagine you will be putting on it. I am using them for a tall footboard. I am not sure if the design is a little off or if there is no "universal" size for the hooks but the footboard has a slight wobble. This hasn't been a safety issue but I wish the wobble didn't exist.

I agree with MSU71. I used 1/4 screws as well and 5/32 as I remember. This is used with another arm to hang a 17.5' expedition kayak and it works great.

I don't know about weight... I used it for a wind sock on our dock. It broke within 2 weeks (at bottom where it was zip tied to a dock pole). Then the swivel broke. I didn't find it to be very sturdy at all.

About 10lbs I think.I wouldn't mount without a stud.I'm not sure about unspecified screws.But you could surface mount using butterfly toggle bolts.

See review dated December 5, 2012 , there it says "The picture does not show how strong this pole is. It is 1/2 inch diameter". I can say this much, when it arrived I was pleasantly 'shocked'. I thought, "wow I have never seen a hook this heavy". It is quite impressive. Like the reviewer I referenced, I did not use the enclosed screws. Hope this helps... Les
