ABSTRACT:
A retaining clip for use with a variety of wire hooks and other forms of hangers used to store or display tools, merchandise, and other objects on perforated composition panel board commonly known as peg board. The retaining clip is formed of semi-elastic material and consists of a central portion grooved to fit over the shank of conventional peg board hooks, with two arms projecting outward on opposite sides of the central groove, each with barbed prongs positioned to be inserted into adjacent perforations in the peg board and to be locked or retained therein by the barbs, thus preventing movement of the hook and accidental detachment. The retaining clip may be used with peg board of various thicknesses by elongating the prongs to fit the maximum thickness of peg board to be accommodated, and inclining the projecting arms at an angle great enough, when the retaining clip is under zero stress, that the distance from the barbs to the base of the center goove, measured parallel to the centerline of the retaining clip, is less than the minimum thickness of peg board to be accommodated.
