Abstract
A novel end bracket for the ends of each of several wood cross bars that support the shelf decking in a storage rack, and a storage rack incorporating the same. The end bracket has a rigid main rectangular plate with a thin, flat, rigid supporting tongue extending rigidly outward from one side of the plate for a substantial distance beyond the cross bar end. A rigid flange extends downward from each end of the main rectangular plate for embracing the cross bar end. A rigid finger extends inward at the bottom of each of the flanges, at a slight obtuse angle to the flange, for confining the cross bar end. At least one rigid hook member extends inward at the bottom of each flange, with a rigid tapered tip oriented at an acute angle to the shank of the hook member, for fixedly securing the end bracket to the cross bar by driving the hook into the cross bar.
