peg board hooks

I've got a lot of pegboard and never had that problem except with a couple types of pegs, so I quit using them. The short tight loops with a single peg or anything with only one peg, and screwdriver racks did what you say. If you use long pegs they stay in place of their own weight. Some tools just don't work well on a short peg if they jam when you take them off. Only tools I hang on pegs are fairly heavy stuff with holes like pipe wrenches, pliers, hammers hanging between two long pegs, etc. They have to slide easily on the peg. I don't hang my wrench sets on pegs. What are you hanging that pulls the peg out?

McFeeley's and others have trick pegboard clips that stay in place. A little pricey but worth it IMO. Google the topic for more ideas.

I want to move some hooks.

want to move some hooks.

I like the idea of using a little hot glue ... nice and easily removable. But, I have been using the hook which have a square or round peg that goes in the hole just below the hanger. This design usually hold them real tight without and glue. The round peg is just the right size to be snug in the hole. The square peg grabs the pegboard hole on the 4 corners of the peg. Either works well. Here's a pic of the hook:

I put a nylon anchor in the hole and screw a hangar to it if I can. This worked great on my screwdriver rack but most of the time I just hang stuff like bags of small parts on the screws. The hot glue works well too but use the craft kind that comes off easy.
