Abstract
A file hanger kit, system and clips for mounting file hanging rails in a drawer on a tapered cross-section clip mounting rail running along the top edges of the drawer. The clips are formed in an upside down J configuration having a vertical portion and a generally C-shaped hook portion integral with the top of the vertical portion. The C-shaped hook portion defines and partially encloses a reentrant opening that faces down along the side of the vertical portion for hooking and wedging onto the tapered mounting rail when a downward force is applied to the clip by the files hanging on the rails mounted in the clips.
