Quality Hooks With Suction Cup – Lavatory Makeover

The suction cup hook is an ideal and convenient hanging space for your small items such as towels, wash rugs, paintings, decorations, bags and basically whatever other items you need hanged in the house.

The suction cup which is sometimes referred to as a sucker, works by using negative fluid of air or water which creates a vacuum when the sucker is pressed onto a non-porous surface.

The vacuum created is basically what holds the sucker in places, the difference between the atmospheric pressure surrounding the suction cup and the low pressure within the cavity located on the inside of the cup causes the suction cup to stick or adhere to the surface.

The time it takes for the suction of the cup to lose its suction effect making the suction cup to no longer stick to the surface depends on the porosity of the surface and the time it takes for the liquid to leak back into the cavity in the cup.

To ensure the suction cup sticks for as long as possible, here are a few step you can follow to get the best out of your suction cup hooks;

• Clean the suction cup and make sure it is free from any debris. When cleaning it is best to use warm water then dry the cups with lint- free cloth and be gentle when doing this.
• Clean the surface you are sticking the suction cup, this step is crucial because the suction cup will not stick to a surface that is dirty. You can use alcohol to be 100% sure that there is no left over residue on the surface.
• Place a dab a small amount of Vaseline or cooking oil on the rim of the cup to increase its suction
• Press the cup against the surface; make sure you go all the way down.
• Periodically press down the cup to remove any air that may still be in the space between the cup and the surface.
