    How Strong Does the Hanger Tab Need to Be – and What Shapes Work Best?

    This is the #1 failure point. A ripped tab means returned inventory and unhappy retailers. The strength depends on three factors: material thickness, slot geometry, and the direction of the paper's grain.


    Recommended shapes:




    • Euro slot (keyhole): A round hole with a narrow slit leading upward. This fits most standard peg hooks and distributes weight evenly.




    • Die-cut hook tab: A protruding flap that folds out to hang over a rack bar. This uses less board but requires precise scoring to fold cleanly.




    • Reinforced U-shape: A deep U-shaped cut that creates a large contact area with the hook – ideal for heavier items (over 500 g).
