The 2x4 Hybrid Gong Hangers slide directly over a standard 2x4 crossmember, giving you a simple way to hang steel gong targets without drilling or permanently mounting hardware to the lumber. Each hanger is CNC laser-cut from domestic 1/4" AR400 steel and can be repositioned along the 2x4 to adjust target spacing. These hangers are designed specifically for 2x4 gong target stands. Made in the USA.
Use the hangers with steel chain for heavier gong targets or rubber chain and quick links for smaller setups. Pair them with the 2x4 Gong Stand Brackets to build a complete all-wood 2x4 target stand. Compatible hanging options include the 15" Grade 100 Steel Chain Gong Mounting Kit and the 8" Rubber Chain Gong Target Mounting Kit.
