Abstract
A hang rail support and bracket is provided to support a hang rail of rectangular cross section which is adapted to be supported in such a manner that other brackets may be secured along the length of the rail and have merchandise hung therefrom in cantilever fashion. The bracket is adapted to be secured to a vertical standard such as the conventional slotted ones and has a vertically extending notch disposed in a laterally offset distal end section fitting the hang rail, and the lateral section is parallel to a lateral side of the hang rail or bar and has a bumper member of yieldable material that presses against a side of the rail to hold the rail firmly in the notch. The distal end section is parallel to and laterally offset from the proximal end section by the length of the lateral section and provides a shape of the bracket that acts to rigidify the structure of the bracket and to stengthen the bracket.
