ORDERING INFORMATION
Screw eyes have been used to hang pictures for a very long time. However, in recent years most professional framers have switched over to modern flat profile Picture Hangers, which offer significant advantages over traditional screw eyes for hook & wire picture hanging. Screw eye hangers can be difficult to turn in completely straight and the inevitable elongation of the screw hole that results from this problem weakens their holding power. They can deform and even break off at the neck if they are torqued too vigorously. And the larger sizes tend to stick out unattractively on the back side of the frame. Screw eyes are supplied in nine sizes in both short-shank and long-shank versions. The traditional size designations run from #208 (largest) to #217 (smallest). For the reasons given above, we advise against using the larger screw eye sizes for hanging pictures.
We offer only the three smallest short-shank sizes: #'s 215 1/2, 216 1/2 and 217 1/2 (Small, Very Small and Tiny). These bright zinc plated screw eye hangers are still a sensible option for use on very narrow (3/8" wide or less) wood frames where all our other hanger options--even the Flanger or Mini Hanger--are too big for the width of the back side of the frame moulding.
Please Note • Screw eye hanger total lengths are listed above. These are very small hangers. • Small screw eye hangers will safely support small, lightweight pictures without difficulty, but do not use these hangers on any frame larger than 11" x 14" or more than 1 lb. in weight. • For larger pictures, or if the frame back side width is 1/2" or more, flat profile wood frame wire hangers are available here; heavy-duty hangers here.
