How much do these hooks hold? My kayak weights about 44lbs.

We have two kayaks. One is a Wilderness Pungo 120, and the other is a Wilderness Tsunami 125. Both boats fit fine on these hooks, and they weigh approx. 50 pounds, with no problem. You can get them on the hooks easily, and I consider them a great buy.

The hooks should hold the kayak with out any problems, just make sure they are bolted in to studs.

Hi The kayak we have in these hooks weighs 47 lbs, plus we store the paddle, PFD, etc. in it. We have had no trouble with the hooks and have had them for about 1 yr. outside, attached to our deck. I would recommend them. Happy Paddling!

I started out using them, but then figured out I could get by without them. I think it really depends on the size of your kayak. Mine is only 10ft long, so it doesn't catch much wind.

I have had 90 lbs on each hook and they do not show any remote sign of failing. I have heard these can hold well over 100 lbs each and probably even double that to be honest. Unless you're throwing weights and pressing over 200 lb dumbells like Spoto I wouldn't even worry about these hooks failing at all.

Yes They would. I use one of the hooks in my garage to hang a lawn edger, I didn't weigh it but i'm sure it weighs more than 5 lb's.

I used 2 clips to rig a hanging harness for my pack and 10 gals of water. Rigged the harness to a tree limb, hung water and pack from rigged clips. So, I would think each held in excess of 25 lbs overnight.Haven't tested them to greater trials than that. I know they've held my tarp in 28 mph winds here in Montana with no problem.

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 bought two pair to hold my two Dagger Axis 10.5 KAYAKS. I attached them to the wall of my storage barn and the two KAYAKS fit perfectly. They are EZ KAYAK Racks. Oh, pretty sure the measurements are clearly listed, as well as suggested kayak weights they are rated to hold. Hope that helps.

These hooks are great!They probably fit a 1 inch rod comfortably, but you can bend then to re-adjust, although it might lose some strength. I'd recommend emailing the seller.

They will probably work as far as the width of supports is concerned but you will probably have to tie the top of the kayak to something to keep it from falling out of the cradle.

I'm sorry, but I don't remember. I ordered them a long time ago. The hooks work really well, though.

There is a screw but so what? I have 2 sets and 2 kayaks and these brackets hold both perfectly.

You need to buy two sets if you want to haul two kayaks. Four j hooks total.

I believe 300 lbs. The main stress is on your vertical rack system, which depends on your vehicle. Mine is a 2007 Ford Edge and I think it is at capacity with my 2-seater kayak. The strap system has to be re-tightened constantly as normal wind from driving as well as bumps can shake it loose. If your rack is well attached to your vehicle, you should be okay. I got custom U-bolts, as my factory rack (verticals) were wider than the brackets on holders. If you need me to send pictures regarding what I'm talking about, send me an e-mail to joelottdesign@yahoo.com. Thanks

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 !

I was using these with my 65 pound kayak but it is a much narrower boat and couldn't mate up with the hull very well, so it might work good for yours. They flex a lot but seem to handle the weight fine.

The hooks are approx. 5.5" at the longest side. I am hanging lawn chairs from them over 2"x4"'s in the garage. They would not hang to the bottom of a 2"x6" but close.

I bought mine last fall and have not used them. I will next week for a 60# plastic sea kayak. I have checked it out and feel that's its well made and should be able to handle about anything you can fit on them
