Adjustable Pull-up Bar Rack Attachment

Buy Now · $58.96

Bells of Steel’s Adjustable Pull-up Bar Rack Attachment is a rack-mounted accessory that adds a second pull-up bar to a power rack, or pairs with a set of lever arms to unlock barbell-style movements like hip thrusts, rows, and deadlifts. It’s built from 6-gauge steel with a 1.25” diameter bar rated to a 500 lb capacity, secured with hitch pins (the Manticore version uses quick-locking mag pins with a UHMW liner to protect the rack). Its adjustable rung position is the headline feature: pull it out from the uprights for kipping/muscle-up clearance, or in for strict pull-ups, and dedicated end hooks let suspension straps attach without wearing on the bar itself.

It’s sold in three versions matched to different rack lines – a bare steel 2.3” x 2.3” version for 2.3” racks and Cable Tower Squat Stands, and powder-coated Hydra and Manticore versions for Bells of Steel’s 43”-wide rack systems – so buyers need to match the version to their specific rack. Independent coverage is thin (GymRadar’s 4.17/5 rests on only four reviews), but the manufacturer’s own storefront rating (4.6/5, 55 reviews) and an independent retailer listing both describe it as solid and quick to install or remove; the one recurring critique is that the mounting brackets are large enough to block off several holes at the top of the rack.

What is a Rack Attachment?

What rack attachments are

Rack attachments bolt or pin onto a power rack or squat stand to expand what it can do — J-cups and safety arms/straps (the essentials), plus dip bars, a landmine, a lat pulldown, weight-plate storage, roller J-cups, and more. They turn a rack into a whole gym.

Compatibility comes first

An attachment must match your rack’s upright size (2x2, 2x3, or 3x3) and hole pattern/hardware (e.g. 5/8-in vs 1-in holes, Westside spacing). Attachments are usually series-specific — a Monster Lite J-cup won’t fit an Echo upright — so confirm the fit before buying.

The Adjustable Pull-up Bar Rack Attachment is a simple 6-gauge steel accessory that adds a second pull-up bar to a Bells of Steel rack, or pairs with lever arms for hip thrusts, rows, and deadlifts. Its adjustable rung position is the standout feature — pull it out for kipping clearance, or in for strict pull-ups — and dedicated strap hooks keep suspension work off the bar itself. Independent evidence is thin: GymRadar’s 4.17/5 rests on only four reviews, and the strongest signal is Bells of Steel’s own 4.6/5 storefront rating, whose one recurring critique is that the mounting brackets are large enough to block off several holes at the top of the rack. Durability is the weakest dimension simply because no independent long-term testing exists yet.

  • +Build quality: 6-gauge steel brackets rated to 500 lbs; manufacturer demo shows it holding a 300+ lb user with no flex (Bells of Steel)
  • +Versatility: pairs with lever arms for hip thrusts, rows, and deadlifts, and its own hooks let suspension straps skip wearing on the bar itself (Bells of Steel overview video)
  • +Value: $56-59 accessory backed by Bells of Steel's limited lifetime warranty (306 Fitness, Bells of Steel USA)
  • Durability: no independent long-term testing surfaced; coverage is limited to the manufacturer's own on-site rating (GymRadar, 4 reviews) and a single retailer comment (306 Fitness)
  • Build quality: the mounting brackets are large enough to block off several holes at the top of the rack (Bells of Steel on-site reviews)
  • Functionality: sold as three separate SKUs (2.3" bare steel, Hydra, Manticore) so buyers must match the version to their specific rack (Bells of Steel)
