Thank you, somehow I missed that. I looked at Lowes and the stock number is not exactly the same. Checked Amazon and they want $4.95 for each J hook. did a google search, found them for $0.50 at the following website. I ordered 12 and payed $13 in shipping (still better than $5 each)dholdgreve wrote:I believe the rules go into pretty deep detail, identifying the exact sku # and manufacturer of the specified hook, so technically they should all be the same, but you are correct, there will always be those out there that think that all 1/4" J hooks are the same. The only way to be sure is to check with the E/C well before the competition for his specific hook dimensions.rschmitz wrote:I built the testing wall, however I am concerned about how far out the inside diameter of the j-hook should be. It only mentions the opening needs to be 2.5cm from the wall. I bought the J-hook from Lowes. It has a straight part to it before it curves. The parameters do not say how long that can be. In particular the distance from the wall to the inside diameter of the j-hook distance can change due to style of J hook. Mine is 4.4cm from wall to inside of Jhook.

Once I get these in I will check to see if the Lowes J hooks are an "exact equivalent" as stated in 5.a.ii
