ABSTRACT:
For use in adjustable storage racks, a connection assembly is provided for connecting a support member and a stringer. The connection means is engageable with at least one slot on the support member and comprises at least one tab comprising a hook member and a locking and abutment member, with the latter member designed to prevent the connection means from becoming disengaged from the upright member. Specifically, the locking and abutment member is off set from the hook member so that the hook member is engageable with a lower edge of a slot on the support member and the locking and abutment member is lockable within the boundaries of the slot and is in suitable proximity to a top edge of the slot to abut the top edge.
