Abstract: A structural member with a central portion that has a first piece and a second piece which form a cross-sectional L-shape configuration along a longitudinal axis is disclosed herein. When fastened to a horizontal bar, the first piece of the structural member may come into contact with a portion of the horizontal bar, thereby preventing the structural member from rotating. The structural member includes a connection component that extends from an end of the first piece, and the connection component extends substantially perpendicular to the first piece. The connection component may be configured in at least two different embodiments in that the connection component may include two holes or three holes. The implementation of more than one hole on the connection component allows the structural member to be universal in that it can be implemented on varying sized storage racks that employ different sized horizontal bars.

Abstract: An improved shelf barrier for helping prevent items, including pallets of goods from unintentionally sliding off the shelves of pallet racks. The stop member can include at least one, preferably two or more grooves formed therein as strengthening features. The grooves can be concave grooves on one surface of the stop and can also be corresponding convex ribs on the opposite surface of the stop. The stop can be formed with two differently sized sections to be attached to the shelf of a pallet rack, each section suitable for attachment to a differently sized pallet rack shelf, such that either can be used by merely inverting the stop. A flange can be provided at one or both ends of the stop to help align the stop with the rack and prevent the stop from pivoting about a single attachment bolt.
