Listing says it weighs 50 lbs. This can't be correct? Also, are these ok for screwing into a wood shelf - not the ceiling?

I've bought a couple sets of these. Love them. I hang my kitchen pots an pans on them, so I'm nowhere near 50lbs per. However, I can't see any way they wouldn't be able to hold that much weight as long as whatever you're screwing them into can hold it. They're not going to bend or break. Still, you night want to test one in your garage first. Definiely screw into solid wood, even if in ceiling.

Yes, it will hold 50 pounds with ease. I have several of them with sledge hammers, post mauls, and other heavy tools hanging from them. They are only as good as the way you anchor them to your wall. You need long screws that go into a stud. I highly recommend them.

It seems very stable and will depend on how much weight you put on each shelf....each one hold 50 lbs. I dont yhink it would be eady to topple. But t hen of course how old and how wild are your kids?

We mounted these to the ceiling and they work great. I don't think the weight is that critical. What's important is what you're anchoring it to. If you're anchoring to studs, you have no trouble at all. If not, adjust the weight accordingly.

Sorry, I'm not sure how much weight these hooks will hold but I can tell you that I hang a 13" cast iron fry pan on one of the hooks. That's not anywhere near 50-60 lbs. so if you need an answer to your question you'll have to call Amazon's help/contact line and/or contact the manufacturer if possible.

We live in CA so that was a concern for us as well! We screwed these into the STUD (use a stud finder) and tested them by trying to get the dresser to tip with the weight of an adult. They work great! The person who had the screws snap must have done something very wrong, they said they used them on a shelf which is weird, these are for safety strapping furnature in case of accidental tipping (or a child climbing up) not to support a shelf.

Specs list say 23lbs for the ceiling mount. Sounds right based on my installation experience. http://roboreel.com/ceiling-mount-buy/

I didn't weigh it, but I lifted it multiple times including standing on top of a ladder. 28 pounds sounds about right, definitely not 55 pounds. It doesn't have to be hung from the ceiling but the hardware they provide is only for ceiling hanging. If you wanted to hang it off a wall, you would have to fabricate some sturdy brackets. Note the clearance dimensions from combustible surfaces (as in walls and ceilings) are important.

The mount itself is not heavy. I'd guess maybe 20 pounds. The TV is the heavy object. The specs say it supports up to 66 lbs of TV, so obviously do not exceed that limit. As far as the stud -- this is a ceiling mount fixture, so I'm going to assume you meant the ceiling joist. I mounted mine w/ 50 inch TV in the corner of the room to the joist using the lag bolt hardware provide and it is rock solid. I could probably do a chin-up on it. I cant image any normal situation where the ceiling would fail before the mount itself, but obviously doing anything like this yourself assumes some risk on your part.

They're light weight, yes. That's exactly what I did. I bought a pack of "Command" brand damage-free hangars and just stuck them to the underside. The switch, cables, everything.

I'm not sure about how much weight but I have these in my garage and in my basement and I have all kinds of things on the shelves - seems like it holds a lot if you ask me. Very sturdy. Sorry if I couldn't be too specific.

Mine holds a large assortment of dishes in the spare closet. I'm sure one of the shelves is holding around 50lbs with no issues. It's screwed directly into the studs, where it can be and the others are toggle bolts, I've had no issues. I would not attempt 100 lbs on this shelving unless every single support was screwed into a stud. (and then I'd still be leery)

I am using these for wall mounting not ceiling mounting. You can use these both way. Just for additional info, I am using these for Definitive Promonitor 1000, which are very heavy.

I used them to put up a folding shelf in my laundry room. I've had up to 20 pounds on the shelf so far.

I have used all of mine. So I don't have one to weigh. But they do seem to be a little heavier than my regular bolts. Sorry.

I have only put a minimal amount of weight on these hooks and just for hanging some thing on a closet rod but think that they will hold much more than I have been hanging. But in answer to your question I would say that you could hang 30 lbs with out them bending.

I can't measure the exact weight (no precise instruments) but under 1lb. To put it in perspective, when I was testing where to put them, I used a twist-tie from a package of bread to hold them to different parts of the room and they hung. Easily light enough to attach with a simple screw (I'd avoid a wire nail or something light just because it would pull out of the wall). Hope that helps.
