ABSTRACT:
A storage rack for small articles including an elongated housing having a back wall, a front wall and top and bottom walls. An elongated opening is formed in the front wall of the housing. The elongated opening is defined by inwardly extending portions of the front wall thereby forming hooks. A multiplicity of retainer loops formed of a strip of a tough, resilient, abrasive-resistant resin is provided for the storage rack. Each retainer loop has a bight portion positioned outwardly of the front wall of the housing and two legs extending through the elongated opening to position the distal ends of the loop inside the housing. A pair of hook engaging notches are formed in the distal end of each of the legs. The hook engaging notches receive the opening defining hooks of the housing to preclude withdrawal of the retainer loops through said elongated opening. In one embodiment the inwardly extending portions of the front wall defining the opening extend parallel to the top and bottom walls of the housing while in the other embodiment of the invention the inwardly extending portions are reversely curved.
