InterDesign Classico Metal Over the Rod Loop Hook, Closet Accessory Organizer for Scarves, Pashminas, Handbags, Belts, Ties in Bedroom, Mudroom, College Dorm, 0.7" x 5.8" x 11.6", Chrome

Q: Can this go over a shower curtain rod too, or just a thin closet rod?

Yes. The curve fits fairly big dianeter rods. I put it on my curtain rod and it fits with enough fit & play - not snug at all. Could hook it to curtain rod and move it freely left/right.

Q: How much weight can this hold?

I have a bike repair stand hanging by a strap from one of these hooks without any problems. That's at least 30 pounds of weight.

Q: Would it work to hang a bath towel?

I bought the InterDesign Classico Tie/Belt Rack, Matte Black which has about 20 hooks give or take. That would definitely not work for a bathtowel. If the one with just 2 hooks has the same size hooks, it would not work for a towel. But it's hard to know without seeing it. I would think there might be better items out there.

Q: how long is this item and will the loops fit over a one inch rod?

Hello, The hook is 5 1/4 inches top to bottom. The S part is 1 1/2 inches and works well with a 1 inch rod. I have two in my Rubbermaid closet and it works well on the very small rod too.
