What's the maximum weight the hook can carry? Thinking of using it for backpacks.

The heaviest item hung on the hook is a lightweight robe. I would think more about what are you using in the wall for an anchor. I did not install mine, someone else did and do not know what type/size screw/bolt/anchor used. It is hung on drywall.

I wouldn't use it for anything too heavy. Also if what you are hanging on the hook gets too heavy you will need to install backing in your wall no matter what hook you use.

We only use then for a place to hang our towels, Call the company I'm sure they can give you maxim weight weight.

The hook itself is very strong; I use one for a large beach towel and the other for two heavy terry robes. I think the issue is what surface you'll attach the hook, it would be fine if the backing it very sturdy.

I have no idea of the maximum, and frankly am not willing to test it. It holds a wet bathsheet towel easily or even jeans & shirt on wooden hangers. I have no idea how much that weight is though.

Yes. There is a hook. Do not know how much weight it can hold but could easily hold a light bag.

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.

Could not calculate maximum weight too many variables type of structure mounted to such as types wood, sheetrock etc. For our purposes they are mounted on mdf board on mudroom wall. We hang coats, hats, scarves etc very adequate for those garments. A bulky parka would be hard pressed to stay on hook as they are not very deep. Hope this helps!

The weight should not be an issue. We have had a backpack, a messenger bag, and many coats on it one time, without any issue. As noted already, the lowest hooks are out of most little kids reach. Depending on the item, we have to place things on and get them off for our soon to be 5 year old.

I hang my heavy purse and a small backpack on it. It would depend on heavy the three backpacks are. Also, the hooks would be high for kids. I have been quite happy with it but it really use mostly for coats.

Oh yea, I would certainly say so. I used to hang up my backpack with books in it every night and that was at least 20-25 lbs. So unless you have some freakishly large pans, it should be ok. Although I should note that from some of the reviews it looks like some people are getting "real" brand name hooks and some people are getting different hooks that don't hold up as well. People complained about the finish peeling and hooks rusting and I haven't experienced that in the 2 years or so I've had them, and I've used a few in the bathroom and shower stall and still no rusting. I bought mine though Amazon and not one of the resellers. I don't know if that made a difference. Oh yea, I would certainly say so.

I have roughly 30 pounds in the backpack that I use daily.I use it for a/c tools,and it makes it easy to climb ladders and walk on roofs safely.

The hook is rated for 20 pounds. It is a safety feature so individuals will not pull something really heavy down upon themselves. I have not used the hook but took this information from the manufacture's supplied warning.

Wald does not list a weight limit on their website. However... It's probably more than you want to carry. I've discovered that the weak link for me isn't my baskets - it's my steel rack, which when the baskets are loaded, flexes quite a bit. But I've had these baskets loaded with canned goods, frozen meat, milk, oj and other heavy stuff, and they had no problems.In short, unless you're carrying uranium bars, these baskets will almost certainly handle the weight just fine.

yes, it can carried as backpack. I experienced one of the shoulder trap got unhook 3-4 times. The design and the hook seem good quality. I just didn't see why that one side got unhook several times.

I've got 80 pounds on mine , but I'm sure they will hold much more , it depends what you want but sticking 10s on each side it'll hold maybe 160 , if the question is the hook itself , I believe they'll hold whatever you put on it , enjoy mine they work great !

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 bought one and the package states it can hold 7.5 lbs per slot. No mention of what the fold-out hooks can hold though.

All of the various hook designs have the weight stamped on their sides in kilo grams. The one in the picture uses 2mm wire, the wire(plastic) passes through the tightening nut, a very nice design. It's rated for 15 Kg. All of the designs are different how ever.

10 pounds should be within the hook's limit. I hung a large Boston fern from one (15-20 lbs) without issue. Just make sure you find a ceiling joist to anchor into!

The hooks are about 1-3/4 inches in outside diameter and are rubber coated.The strap, when "latched" in the towing position; looks to be about 26-27" long (maximum); centerline of hook to centerline of hook.
