Straight Bar Cable Attachment

Compatible with any cable machine using carabiners, this 20" straight bar cable attachment is the jack-of-all-trades for cable training. Its straight design allows for pushdowns, rows, pulldowns, raises and more without needing 93 different cable attachments. The comfortable rubberized grips are gentle on your hands, in case mountainous calluses aren't your thing. The rotating center allows for smooth, natural movement without you needing to loosen your grip. This way, you’ll never have to worry about inertia straining your wrists or elbows and causing injury. Plus, it's safer for your noggin' with its rounded rubber ends.

What is a Cable Attachment?

What cable attachments are

Cable attachments are the handles and bars that clip to a cable machine, functional trainer, or lat/row station to change the exercise — lat bars, triceps ropes, single-D handles, row/close-grip handles, ankle straps, and more. A small set of them turns one cable stack into dozens of movements.

What to look for

A rotating swivel or ball-bearing joint keeps the cable from twisting and lets the handle track your arm; comfortable, durable grips (knurled metal, rubber, or coated nylon) survive heavy use; and a standard carabiner or snap fits most machines. Match the attachment to the exercises you actually train rather than buying a giant kit you won’t use.
