KENNEDY
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about KENNEDY from 3G Electric.
What is the hole pattern compatibility for Kennedy pegboard hooks and shelves?
Kennedy pegboard components are designed for square-hole pegboard systems. This means the mounting holes are square, not round. The hooks and shelves feature a locking clip or surface-mount design that fits into these square holes. Before ordering, verify that your existing pegboard has square holes. The Kennedy system is not compatible with round-hole pegboard without an adapter. For specific fit, check the product datasheet for mounting type and dimensions. 3G Electric can provide MPN-level details to confirm compatibility with your current setup.
What is the load capacity of Kennedy pegboard shelves and hooks?
Load capacity varies by component. For example, the Kennedy Toolboard Shelf (MPN 99846) is a steel shelf measuring 18 in x 6 3/4 in x 4 in. It is intended for storing tools and parts, but the exact weight limit depends on the pegboard backing and mounting. Kennedy does not publish a single load rating for all hooks. In general, steel construction and locking clips provide secure retention for hand tools. For heavy items, distribute weight across multiple hooks or use a shelf. Consult the datasheet for each item. 3G Electric can supply specifications to help you select appropriate components.
Are Kennedy pegboard hooks available in different finishes?
Yes. Kennedy pegboard hooks and holders come with either a zinc-plated silver finish or a powder-coated gray finish. For example, the Single Ring Tool Holder (MPN 99839) has a zinc-plated silver finish, while the Wrench Set Holder (MPN 99842) has a powder-coated gray finish. Zinc plating offers corrosion resistance for general shop environments. Powder coating provides a durable, textured finish that resists chipping. The choice depends on your facility's conditions and preference. Both finishes are on steel substrates. 3G Electric stocks both types and can quote based on your finish requirement.
Can I order individual Kennedy pegboard hooks or only kits?
Both individual hooks and kits are available. For instance, the Kennedy Pegboard Hook Assortment Kit (MPN 99853) includes 39 hooks, while the Single Ring Tool Holder (MPN 99839) is a single item. The catalog includes tool-specific holders like the Pliers/Wrench Tool Holder (MPN 99831) with 10 hooks, and the Hex Wrench Rack (MPN 99842) with one hook. You can order the quantity you need. 3G Electric supplies individual SKUs and kits. For large projects, we can quote bulk quantities. Check the product listing for package contents. If you need a custom assortment, contact us for a quote.
What is the locking clip system on Kennedy pegboard hooks?
The locking clip system is a retention feature that secures the hook or holder to the pegboard. It prevents accidental dislodgement when tools are removed or replaced. The clip engages with the square hole and locks the component in place. This is particularly useful in high-traffic areas or when storing heavy tools. Most Kennedy pegboard hooks and holders feature this system, as noted in their specifications. For example, the Ring Tool Holder (MPN 99839) and the Hook Assortment Kit (MPN 99851) both use locking clips. This design maintains organization and reduces the risk of hooks falling out.
