Abstract
The heavy-duty garment hanger is a hanger of hollow stainless steel construction, which can hold heavy articles of clothing. The hanger is made from hollow filamentous tubing shaped into an upwardly projecting hook adapted to engage a structure allowing the hanger to hang and a body having shoulder portions extending generally outwardly from the hook and an elongated cross member interconnecting the shoulder portions. A second length of hollow filamentous stainless steel tubing may be inserted and disposed concentrically within a portion of the first length of tubing, then bent to form the hook. A plug is inserted into the end of the hook.
