A retainer for holding a peg board hook against the front surface of the board. The retainer has a variable length strap for at least partially encircling the shank of a peg board-mounted hook in restraining relation thereto, and a head or body with a prong removably insertable in a selected hole of the peg board in the vicinity of mounted peg board hook. The prong has a tang for engaging the rear surface of the peg board. The strap is tensionable for increasing the grip of the retainer on the shank of the associated peg board hook to be retained. In one form the retainer is molded in one piece from plastic material and has a head with a through-passageway with a resilient locking tang operably disposed therein. The strap is a long, narrow flexible member affixed at one end to the head to extend therefrom to a free end. The strap has teeth formed thereon and is dimensioned for sliding insertion free-end first through the head passageway for pawl and ratchet engagement of the strap teeth with the tang to thereby provide an adjustable locked loop of variable length. In another form the retainer is a two-part assembly with a body of generally "S" or "Z" shape strip made of rigid metal or plastic. The retainer strip has an end portion formed into a hook. The strap is an elastomeric endless loop having a portion captured within the hook of the strip. The strip also is configured to define the prong and tang portions. The retainer may also be employed as an article support for quick removable attachment in a selected aperture of an apertured panel and adapted to releasably hold an article on such panel. -30-
