Looking at Hafele theirs are rated up to 10kg, don't know about your bike gear but mine's probably between 2-5kg per jacket!
The problem is when it's extended all the weight transfers to the plastic side pieces as a shear force, The rail would bend but it's the screws breaking in the plastic mount that could be a bigger problem.
Yup; it's replacing our clothes rail in the hall for coats and motorbike gear so will be the most solid one we can find. It only needs to span ~650mm so shouldn't flex too badly.
