Fixe 1/2" SS Hangers, Gray
|
Anyone know where to get the 1/2" stainless hangers in the "gray" color? The Fixe website does not seem to offer them. Do they exist? |
|
CampSaver.com often has Fixe hardware. Here's the dark gray SS hanger and the specs show they fit up to 1/2" rawl bolts |
|
$5.75 is a rip-off. Just judging from the picture, the holes look smaller than the ones for 1/2". They probably mean they fit if you take the bolt apart and fit the hanger between the sleeve, not really recommended. Personally, I would just get the regular 1/2" SS ones and throw some primer on them and let it dry well before you take them to the crag. fixehardware.com/shop/hange… |

Be sure to use primer paint (as suggested) as it sticks much, much better than non-primer paint. And definitely paint the hangers before placing them. |

So to be clear, you guys are saying...paint the hangers with primer, then paint the final color. Correct? |
|
I just use a coat or two of the primer paint and don't bother with a finish. The gray or red/brown primer works great and lasts pretty well on the hangers. I've tried non-primer paint once and the stuff just flaked off even before I got the hangers out of the bag and on the rock. |
