The Item in My Kit

I bought Mixed-Size Coated Bungee Hooks as part of my camper van equipment.

The mixed bungee hooks are among my purchased storage fasteners. My drawer diary shows the attention I gave to the placement of hardware and the space around moving parts as the assembly came together.

Comparing One Cord Size with a Mixed Hook Supply

  1. I planned the storage assembly and simulated the roof dimensions on the patio.
  2. I built the timber drawer frame and base, then cut the rubber lining with scissors.
  3. I fitted the lining with adhesive, screws and washers before attaching the slides to the drawer and cabinet.

My Takeaway from This Job

The storage build made the position and access of small hardware tangible. The mixed coated hooks keep quarter- and three-eighth-inch cord fittings together, while the other packs concentrate on one size and change the hook body material.

Product Details And Van-Build Uses

SpecificationProduct Detail
FinishBlack coating
Listed Cord Sizes1/4 and 3/8 inch
Pack TypeMixed hook sizes

The hook body, cord opening and finished cord end form one small assembly. Keep the quarter-inch and three-eighth-inch selections separated before building an elastic loop for a van organizer. Sketch the hook position at both ends and the opening needed to attach or release it. Recording the actual cord and hook combination makes it easier to repair the same loop later without treating every coated hook in the mixed pack as the same size.

Why Keep The Hook Sizes Separate?

The pack covers two cord sizes, so the selected hook needs to remain associated with its actual cord.

The spiral-hook pack concentrates on three-eighth-inch cord, while the Plasticky hooks use a plastic body for quarter-inch cord.
