ABSTRACT:
A storage rack for small articles, including an elongated housing having a top wall, a bottom wall and end walls. An elongated support bar is located between the top and bottom walls and extends between the end walls to which it is fastened. The elongated support bar has a transverse cross section which is non-circular. A multiplicity of retainer loops are mounted side by side on the elongated support bar with the end retainer loops constrained by engagement with the end walls of the elongated housing. Each retainer loop is formed of a strip of a tough, resilient, abrasive resistant resin having a bight portion and two legs. An opening is formed in each leg of each retainer loop near the distal end of the leg and is used for mounting the retainer loop on the elongated support bar. Each opening in each leg has a shape similar to but larger than the non-circular transverse cross section of the elongated support bar. A two-way retainer loop stop is formed at one end of the elongated support bar and a one-way stop, allowing the mounting of the retainer loops on, but not removal of the retainer loops from, is formed at the opposite end of the support bar to permit the retainer loops to be mounted on the support bar before the support bar is installed in the storage rack.
