IMPORTANT: Our Hydra series of power racks are true 3″ x 3″ tubing with 5/8″ holes, so only attachments made precisely for 76.2mm x 76.2mm uprights will fit.
Built with 11-gauge steel, this bad boy can handle the weight capacity needs of world-class lifters. You get even more stability than our Light Commercial Rack which means less shaking when racking your bar or while using attachments. Even if it’s not bolted down, you’ll feel that true #heavyweight status.
Trying to line up your j-cups perfectly can be a pain in the you-know-what. And unlike many of our competitors, we have lasered numbers every 1-2 holes to make adjustments a breeze. So you can easily change your j-cup height after your widow-maker squat set… because counting is HARD WORK when you can barely breathe.
Ready to settle for 2″ hole spacing throughout? Pffft, not a chance. You are an efficient and optimized MACHINE, that’s why we went with extra precise 1″ hole spacing to make unracking a heavy bar a little easier. After all, every morsel of energy matters when going for that 1lb PR (fractional plates, you da real MVP).
If you train alone, then you know what it’s all about: your own music, no line-ups, and curls in the squat rack. However, it’s essential that you train safely and that’s why every Hydra rack comes with your choice of pin pipe safeties, safety straps, or spotter arms. You should NEVER hesitate to dump a loaded barbell if needed.
The uprights on the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack measure true 3″ x 3″, which is exactly 76.2mm x 76.2mm with 5/8″ holes.
*The edges of the upright base plates extend by 2.5″ to the front & rear, adding a combined 5″ to the depth of each Four Post Power Rack configuration.
The Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack weighs a minimum of 250lbs when the shortest uprights, cross-pieces and attachments are selected.
When bolted down securely, the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack’s weight capacity is 1,000lbs.
The steel thickness on the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack is 11-gauge/2.9mm.
Only attachments designed to fit true 3″ x 3″ uprights are guaranteed to fit on the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack. Attachments for uprights that measure 75mm x 75mm (often labeled as 3″ x 3″ but are based on the metric system and are actually 2.95″ x 2.95″) will NOT fit on the Hydra rack.
To assemble the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack, you need two 24mm wrenches (not included by default). Correctly sized box-end, adjustable & socket wrenches are suitable alternatives.
Covered under our Limited Lifetime Warranty guarantees that the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Four Post Power Rack will not break under normal use, and protects against defects in material, function and workmanship.
CAI saved money by picking the rack up in Toronto. This is a tank of a rack. Pictures do not do it justice. Its overbuilt in a good way. My kids are now working out with me, which is a blessing. So happy ti support a Canadian company doing good work!
Hi Jayce, Thank you so much for taking the time to review our Hydra 4 post rack. We are delighted that you have found great peace in knowing how overbuilt we have made this rack and that your little ones have even joined in too! Thank you for supporting a Canadian company. Sincerely, Marcus & The BoS team
CAVery happy with my hydra rack. After using a cheap rack for several years I decided to upgrade to something more substantial. This is a very sturdy rack, the 3x3 uprights and 11 gauge steel give it a commercial gym feel, and the black powder coat gives it a high quality look. I purchased the bolt on straight pull-up bar and the dip attachment and am quite happy with the quality. I also appreciate that the uprights and crossbeams can be purchased separately, in the future I plan on turning my 4 post into a 6 post rack. The customer service is also fantastic, they were very responsive from my experience. The packaging was all high quality, nothing was damaged on arrival. I live locally but shipping was quite fast, my order arrived 3 business days after ordering.
Hi Colin, Thank you so much for such a fantastic review of our new Hydra 4 post rack. We are delighted that you are enjoying its beefiness and that you plan on upgrading to a 6 post in the future.We look forward to serving you. Marcus & the BoS team
United StatesAfter a month of waiting (Ordered it Nov. 18 and received it Dec. 19) I finally received my rack. Apart the top pieces popping off ever so slightly on all the uprights, the rack is amazing. Welds are great, the lazer-cut numbering is amazing, finish...everything about the rack is great. However, the reason I'm giving it a 3 is because shipping and customer service is honestly a hassle. Took over month to finally receive the rack. I wouldn't be too upset over it (with it being the holidays) if I was able to receive my information or contact support easily enough. Took many trys to talk with someone and each time I did, they said they would send my tracking number and all relevant information to my email. Never did. I was surprised by my rack arriving. I was actually about to try and cancel my order on the day it arrived because i was tired of waiting and not knowing. Well, at least I finally have my rack. So I went to assemble it and all that. Well turns out they never sent the pieces that the safety straps attach to that connect to the rack. This, after ordering the spotter arms initially but was *graciously* upgraded to the safety straps, after being told the arms were on hold till February. I figured the pieces come with it but I guess I was wrong. So now I have a pair of 150ish dollar straps but no safety equipment of any kind. It's this kind of stuff that just gets infuriating... TL:DR the rack itself is great but the extras associated with it, shipping, and customer service may end up ruining your experience
