Definitely budget however it works. Bought it as sort of a reward to self for making it through a tough period. And is at least to me an option if you can’t get Titan ones. Roller is not grooved and is some kind of plastic not UMWH. Does the job of allowing one to move the bar easier to centre it. It should be easy to find a replacement when the roller dies finally. Fits 2x2” uprights. Fits 5/8” hole without included adapter and 1” hood with adapter. Good option if you live somewhere where can’t get say Titan’s offerings. Or if you are thinking of roller J-Hooks yet don’t know if it will work for you. Good way to see if works cheaper then paying way more and not liking it.

Got the yellow version. Use it with the Bells of Steel Far Bar Single D handle for one hand lift and holds as well as the heavier one hand lifts for reps. Only recommendation is replace the provided mini carabiner with one with more weight capacity- easy to find at Home Depot or other hardware store.

Upgrade from the DIY version had been using . Gift to myself type thing. Use it so far mostly for one arm loading pin lifts or lit and holds. Knurling at least for me works especially when consider the DIY version was PVC pipe. Buy it again? Definitely.

Does it keep your beverage at closer reach? Yes. Don’t set the beverage on gym floor where it can be forgotten and then kicked. Or in my case having my ADHD brain decide to forget where I put it. 😝

Home gym nerd before it was a thing. 40 years ago home gym in the parents basement and decades later now it is cool. And it does increase your lifting performance.

Didn’t buy these to be used as safety catches. So I wouldn’t know how it will hold up to having 300 pounds dropped on it from a failed lift. Bought these to work with the DIY ultility/seal row bench made. This would allow it to be used for box squats. Thus allowing better use of space and one less thing for my ADHD short attention span to smash my foot off of. It fits 2x2 racks and fits 5/8” hole or with the supplied adapter 1” hole racks. For what am using it for works well.

Made in 2021 when I was working on the next evolution of the gym. As others said many ways to make one and this was the most basic. 1.5” pipe cut to length, some rubber hose fittings, and a couple of spring clamps. Now 2026 and still going. Maybe one day upgrade to a real one. However it still works and why mess with what is still working? When winter ends have some extra pipe....just for fun will tinker with another version.
