“U” ought to check out this hanger

when you are in the thick of it

Popco has all sorts of sign hangers for thin stocks. For example, our flagship product, the SNAPRAIL™, is widely used to hang posters and banners that max out at about .070” thick (roughy 1/16-inch). This thickness represents many (maybe most) of the posters and banners that are hung in retail settings.

However, for signs printed on foam board, Coroplast or any other thick material, SNAPRAIL™, and our other thin-stock sign-hanging rails, just won’t work.

Thankfully, we’ve got an alternative, a combination of our Chicago screws and our U-loop sign hanger.

simple, strong and good looking

As shown in this illustration, combining Chicago screws with the U-loop sign hanger is simple and the resulting arrangement is very strong. In fact, with this collection of parts, even signs made from thick and heavy styrene can be safely hung.

Practicality is just part of the appeal of this sign-hanging system. Together, the silver colored Chicago screws and the U-loop sign hanger are very attractive in an industrial, no-nonsense sort of way.

When you’re hanging thick and heavy material “U” could do no better that rely on Popco’s U-loop sign hanger and Chicago screws.
