Abstract: Horizontally arranged storage rail for securing, with spacing, products for storage, such as shaped metal sheets, plastic components or the like, in a storage rack, such as for example a pallet or the like, with the aid of latches rotatably mounted on bolts. It is possible, when placing the product for storage into the storage rack, to swivel a latch located in a ready position into a working position while at the same time an adjacent latch moves from a rest position below an upper edge of the storage rail into the ready position. The latch is assigned a weight which holds the latch in the ready position.
