The Sugatsune AP-32 is a 32mm-wide hanger plate in polished stainless steel, fastened to the back of a frame or panel to provide a clean, low-profile hanging point.
A hanger plate is the hung side of a hanging assembly, not the wall side. It mounts to the back of a frame, panel, or similar object and engages a wall-side component or fastener to carry the piece. The AP-32's 32mm width is the defining selection dimension here: it sets the footprint against the back of the object and determines how the plate distributes load across that surface. For smaller frames and lighter panels where a wider plate would be disproportionate or awkward to fit, the 32mm body is the right scale. The polished stainless finish keeps it clean and corrosion-resistant in the concealed back-of-frame position where it lives.
The body is stainless steel with a Polished Stainless Steel surface. Stainless is a practical choice for a back-of-frame application where the hardware is never visible but may be handled frequently during installation, re-hanging, or rotation of pieces. The polished surface is consistent with Sugatsune's AP series finish standard and presents a finished appearance on the rare occasions the back of the piece is visible, such as during handling or in an installation where the backs of frames are exposed.
This plate is most relevant to framers, millworkers, and installers who hang production quantities of frames or panels and need a consistent, low-profile back-mount solution. It is also used by facilities teams managing large art or signage installations where uniformity of the hanging system matters. Because Sugatsune publishes the AP series as a product family, the AP-32 fits into a coordinated system rather than being a one-off component, which is useful when a project calls for a range of frame sizes requiring different plate widths from the same series.
It is the width of the hanger plate, 32mm (1-1/4 inch), which is the footprint dimension across the back of the frame or panel the plate mounts to.
It is a frame fitting. The AP-32 fastens to the back of the object being hung, not to the wall. It is the hung side of the assembly.
The AP series includes additional sizes. The 32mm plate is one width in the family.
This SKU is Polished Stainless Steel. Confirm the finish value on each AP series SKU individually, as finish options can vary across the family.
For installations where the hanging hardware needs to be as considered as the piece itself, the AP-32 delivers a precise, properly scaled back-mount fitting in a finish that holds up through years of handling.
