ABSTRACT:
A support bar for a storage rack includes a first downwardly facing u-shaped channel forming two sidewalls each having a lower edge at the open side of the channel. A second upwardly facing u-shaped channel faces the opposite direction of the first channel, and is formed as an extension of the lower edge of one of the sidewalls so that the two channels form an s-shape. A low friction material is disposed in the second channel, the material having a channel formed therein. A flange is formed as an extension of the lower edge of the other of the sidewalls, the flange extending upwardly away from the lower edge. The flange provides an edge to hang tape reels from, and the multipacks can be mounted in the rack by placing a first one of their flanges in the channel formed in low friction material, with the other flange resting inside the downwardly facing channel with the multipack in a tipped-back position, the channel of the low friction material allowing the multipacks to be slid freely back and forth along the length of the bars.
