Abstract
A rack for a shelf which may be mounted to an existing shelf. The rack has a series of front and rear securing clasps which maintain the rack in a tensioned fashion to the shelf. The rack provides a series of product sleeves defined by overhead rails. Stop members at the front and rear of the rails secure the rails in place and allow the rack to be reversible. The reversible nature of the rack also allows variation of the selected stop height within a single rack. The rack may be a part of a gravity feed shelf assembly.
