Static Steel Target Hanger

The Target Hanger lineup gives you two fast, reliable ways to mount and swap steel targets depending on your setup. Choose the Static Target Hanger for use with traditional stands or the T-Post Hanger for direct mounting on standard farm T-posts. Both options are designed for quick target changes, consistent performance and long-term durability under repeated impact.

Each hanger system uses a spring-loaded mounting design that allows the target to move naturally on impact, helping direct splatter downward while reducing stress on mounting hardware. Built from steel and finished for outdoor use, these hangers are made to handle repeated sessions without constant adjustment or replacement.

Whether you are running a dedicated stand or a portable T-post setup, these hangers give you a clean, efficient mounting solution that keeps your targets secure and easy to swap.

Safety and Usage

Minimum shooting distances are determined by the target plate used with this hanger. Always inspect the hanger, spring and hardware before every session. Replace any component that shows cracking, deformation or wear.

Use only properly mounted targets and ensure hangers are fully seated on stands or T-posts before shooting. Follow standard safety guidelines for your cartridge and target combination.
