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.
Like cruising through the prairies in your Cadillac with nothing but wide open space, the hydra squat stands are perfect for those who can’t be tamed by the constraints of 4 posts.
Whether your pull-ups are textbook strict, or a butterfly kip, pull-ups in the unencumbered wide open squat stand space are just the best.
The uprights on the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Squat Stand measure true 3″ x 3″, which is exactly 76.2mm x 76.2mm with 5/8″ holes.
The Hydra 3″ x 3″ Squat Stand weighs a minimum of 110lbs when the shortest uprights & cross-pieces are selected with no attachments mounted.
When bolted down securely to the floor, the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Squat Stand’s weight capacity is 1,000lbs.
The steel thickness on the Hydra 3″ x 3″ Squat Stand 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″ Squat Stand. 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″ Squat Stand, 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″ Squat Stand will not break under normal use, and protects against defects in material, function and workmanship.
USThe squat stand works as advertised. The stand was easy to assemble and the stand itself is very strong. I am able to do everything including pull-ups with little to no movement from the squat stand. I'm giving it 4 stars because the fit and finish of the product was about a b-. There were several gouges in the steel as well as inconsistencies in the powder coat. The package arrived with some superficial damage to the feet of my squat stand. None of this impacts the functionality of the stand itself. Overall it is a solid squat stand for your home gym. A suggestion I have is to integrate basic plate storage into the feet of the squat stand. Having two vertical plate pegs would provide more versatility to the squat stand and increase the stability for individuals that don't want to bolt it to the floor. Overall 4 stars
Hi Louden, Thank you for reviewing our squat rack today. We are so pleased to hear you have had a positive experience buying from us. We would also like to thank you for the feedback on our finish and the idea of adding plate storage in the feet as well. We hope we can serve you again soon. Sincerely, Marcus & the BoS team
USI scoured all the options for racks on the market and eventually settled on the BoS Hydra because it seemed to be the best value 3x3 rack at the 90" height I needed it to be and the base width I needed it to be - not to mention I can easily expand it as my fitness journey progresses. I am mainly using it as a super-expensive pull-up bar for bodyweight and calisthenics exercises right now and it's plenty stable with the 62" flat foot attachments without being bolted down. I really appreciated that I could order the rack without the J-cups that I won't be using anytime soon and not have to pay for that part of the build. I'd have liked the pull-up bar to have a little more texture to it, but that's nothing I can't improve on my own inexpensively. My one and only gripe is the packaging. A couple of the boxes containing the parts arrived in pretty rough shape, with the parts completely exposed and the powdercoating scuffed and chipped. I think the packaging could be improved by increasing the size of the box just a bit and adding a little extra padding around the corners of the uprights so that the sharp edges of them aren't right up against the cardboard and as likely to burst through the cardboard and become entirely exposed during transit.
Hi Jacob, Thank you for reviewing our rack today. We are so pleased to hear you have had a positive experience buying from us and we hope we can serve you again soon. We will certainly put into consideration the packaging in the future as well, thank you for your feedback. Sincerely, Marcus & the BoS team
