When using shelf support poles to support the front edges of your shelves you will need pole clips. If you purchase a 1009, the pole will come with 6 pole clips of both types 977 & 978. However, if you are using contractor poles – 117/118, you will need to purchase the pole clips separately. If you plan to support 25.4cm/10" or 30.5cm/12" deep Shelf & Rod shelving with your pole then you will need to buy one of these pole clips for every shelf you are supporting per pole. These clips accomodate the larger gauge wires located at the front edge (lip) of Shelf & Rod 25.4cm/10" of 30.5cm/12" deep shelving compared to the 978 clips which accommodate the smaller gauge wires only.
These clips are made from white plastic and are supplied complete with a 1/2" fixing screw suitable for support pole fixing.
