j-hook
Curved metal catch
A j-hook is a hook shaped like the letter J, with a curved end and a straight shank.
In retail, j-hooks are small plastic or metal fixtures that hang from pegboard or shelving to display packaged merchandise: The candy bars hung from j-hooks near the register.
In construction and electrical work, j-hooks secure cables or wiring to surfaces.
The shape appears wherever something needs to hang from a single point of attachment.
