New Titan Fitness

[chadsalt]

my new axle bar came today. $44 shipped to my door. the welds are good and the powder coat appears to be thick is rougher to the touch than the coating on their racks. I would compare it to the powder coat on my rogue bench for the look and texture but feel that its probably not as durable as the bench. Finally the box was in perfect shape when it arrived at my door despite fedex's best efforts to destroy it.

I'm considering marking where the knurl is on my rogue bar so that I have a reference as to where my hands are placed on the bar.

I put tape at 17" for the pass through and at 32" on my fat bar.

So I'm really confused...will Titan accessories work on Rogue racks or not. I'd be interested in some of their X3 stuff which should work for 3x3, 2 inch spacing, and 5/8 holes, but if I'm hearing right, Titan is on the metric. These new Monos are worth a look if they will fit in the Rogue configuration and not 10mm.

step bit says yes.

step bit says yes.

Mgm, the difference in post hole pin sze is literally 8 seconds on a harbor freght step drill bit per hole. It works out to the next step on there standard 1" step bit so you dont have to worry about consequences stancy or opening up the hole too big you wont notice the difference on your inch pin accesories either. Just figure witch holes may need to have te mono pin go through and even if theres 10, the whole process is 5 minutes or so. I use there j cups, there so close to rogue in quality i bought several pairs in addition to my rohue original ones, so i had to do it to almost every hole on all 4 posts, even that wasnt a huge deal. Interestingly enough, my older titan front spotters used a inch size pin, go fogure. Very little difference in actual size or metal removed. Vacuum up afterwards is biggest inconveniance of the process

Ok...so you do have to bore the Rogue holes out to fit the 10mm Titan accessories. That's not a deal breaker, I was just curious because some say it works and others say it won't.

be careful doing this its equivalent to that bee who flaps its wings in the rain forrest and causes a hurricane. Once this chain reaction is started no one knows where it might end. I also heard that if you start buying Titan accessories its like a gateway drug and you can't stop till you have a marcy adjustable bench, golds gym weight belt, and 17 pairs of spring collars.

The 3x3 stuff doesn't seem to fit on my 3x3 mech rack. As well, they actually sent me a clearly used set of what I had ordered.
Pins for through easily enough but the brackets won't fit around the back of the upright.

Think the monolift could work on a GPR378?

The bolt on would, the "adjustable" would have to be sleeved from 5/8" to 1 1/4" for our rack. I used Rogue monster 1" pin, seemed easier to sleeve to larger size.

I've been wondering if I could use the adjustable one on my rack, which has 1 inch holes. How did you sleeve the pin?

I bet they use 75mm square tubing, not 3". Your's is 100% 3x3. If that's the case, it's falsely advertised.

how far off is it? I had to modify a cup to latch onto my t-3 rack by removing a bit of excess metal in the bend area where it fits around the back of my rack.

75mm is equal to 2.93 inches.

On mine I went from 1" to 1 5/16" with 1" steel pipe. It's a very tight fit on my GPR378, the pins on the rack safeties are 1 3/16" or whatever metric equivalent. Couldn't find a suitable 5/8" to 1" sleeve, doesn't mean it doesn't exist though.

Looks like it would work, at 2" long won't fit all the way through but that wouldn't matter to me.

For 5/8 to 1" holes,

Look at T21316. Check the tolerances. You can get 3" or whatever custom length.

Yes, I know, wtf.
If their attachments are snug on a 75mm rack, they will not fit on 3".

[Hallowedlunch]

I have the Titan dip attachment, it fits on my Rogue rack no problem. It even has thick UHMW on the back where it presses against the rack (none on the sides however) which the Rogue matador did not. However the hitch pin they sent with it did not work in the Rogue holes, it was much larger I think 3/4, not 5/8. And their powdercoat looks a lot like Rustoleum hammered paint.

Damn why didn't I think of that? Used that place several times when my local guy doesn't have any drops that will do the job. DOM wouldn't have had the seam I had to file/grind either. On spread or I would have repped you.

I was planning on going with T2114065 which is 1-1/4 OD x .065 wall x 1.12 ID for my factory J-hooks which were modified. Pic below But then since I extended the pin to 3.25" and also have BWTG j-hooks( I should have gone with Mech J-hooks when he was making them) as well Mech Mono , there is no need for these sleeves. The factory j-hooks are just to hold the bar and used for OHP outside the rack.

Pic of customized GPR378 J-hooks. I did ask the shop to wield 1.25" diameter pin but the wielding shop was not really up to the task nor were interested as it is really small job.

Ok...so you do have to bore the Rogue holes out to fit the 10mm Titan accessories. That's not a deal breaker, I was just curious because some say it works and others say it won't.

In your case you could just do it on soecific homes needed for the mono, assuming as pointed out, you didnt get caught up in the seductive trap that is titan inexpensive rack Accesories. I mean once you get a decent mono for $140 shipped, it diesnt seem likea problem to have a pair of flip down spotter arms for $70 shipped that actually work great... then why wouldnt you gwt a few extra pairs of j hooks, there almost identical to what you have! So probably just bore them all out!
I used a 20 volt dewalt drill and the harbor freight step bit as mentioned. I was going to debur with a countersink or file but it really wasnt necessary. If you dont use much pressure, your literally just shaving a bit out.
The hitch pin is also a hair big that they use on items that need it. I found it happens to just fit on the holes after shaving worh uni bit. If it didnt though, i was just going to use a different hitch pin, i have a bunch from harbor freoght that are correct size for cheap. Truthfully, on the spotter arms, i dont ever use the hitch pin, its really not needed. Especially since i dont use it as a real spotter most times, but a large convenient place tp stage a barbel at correct height for standibg exercises off the front. I couldnt imagine doing shrugs, curls, and such off a j cup now, its so nice to just pop the bar down without any fuss when done. That's the thing with the Titan accesories. Probably at $200. Shipped, i would not have the Rogue ones because i have no dire need, but for $70 ish shipped, why wouldnt you. My biggest fpgripe with the Titan j cups, spotters, ect... they dint do as nice a jog of installing the uhmw, i think they probably cut the pieces a hair oversized, easy fix, but so minor i never have fixed one, Since i use both companies products at the same time, i have a chance to compare often. The later stuff i have like the monkey bar, i think the overall gap has lessened. On that var, the welds are great, the mounting tabs just as thick. I suspect that the new coating, as awesome for grip as it is, is probably less durable. I am totally fine woth that. I still feel im missing something when i use ut amd realize i vought it on sakefor $60. Shipped. I thought it would be a more flimsy constructed one likewhats sold to hang on walls. Instead it seems schedule 40 and 3/8" mounts, its a tank! I have returned to using pull ups as my first back exercise, alternating wide, narrow, nuetral grips each set. Just a great oroduct that makes me very comfortable in ordering the drop in adjustable mono woth no worries ill be sorry

Ya a friend has picked up some pieces (from me in this case ) and I was curious. Seems you're right. Wonder if rogue is the same?

[dragon360]

75mm is equal to 2.93 inches.

Makes sense. All the pieces were too tight for my 3x3

Edit: just read mech's reply!

Rogue is same 3x3 as yours.

Very glad I came across Titan Fitness about two weeks ago when looking to build a garage gym. Bought the T3 power rack, the Y-dip bar accessory, bumper plates, a sled, and fat grips. Thinking about picking up the farmer walk, and maybe even the adjustable monolift. Great site, can't beat the price. Debated on getting the axle bar but just decided to get fat grips for my regular bar instead.

[Hardgains88]

Well i am pulling the trigger tonight or tomorrow early. Its here, the titan adjustable mono for t-3. Its funny, I don't know if i really need or want a mono, I don't have much racking or set up issues. Thats the thing with Titan stuff, for so cheap yu don't really need to have stuff. I am happy with everything I bought so far, and thats a lot of stuff, maybe 12 - 12 rural items except my arm blaster and my fat grip rubber things to ass to a bar. However, I font really thing it is the reproduces fault, I don't thing i would like them regardless. Am I the first person to hop on this?

[lsi1]

I think your the first member to do so. I think friends of members and friends of friends have ordered them.

I don't rather have any racking or setup issues either but I still want a pair but since I have the short titan rack and I'm 6'2 I've been waiting for someone who took the plunge to get out the measuring tape and answer a few questions since my titan fitness ask a questions have never been answered.

I've noticed a pretty steady improvement in quality of products. welds have improved and finish while never good is improving.

[Fivefootkillerz]

I ordered a pair as well in addition to the monkey chin/frame and farmer combo/ydip bar

I'm really looking forward to your impressions of the adjustable monolift. Since I share the rack with my wife and daughter (I'm 6'2 and both of them are 5' flat) a bolt on would be a PITA. I don't NEED one per se, but if my squat keeps going up at the rate it has been going, it'd just be nice to have. Since I trust your opinion about this stuff, I have the popcorn ready.

Still waiting on the flip down safeties myself. I have a damn blood blister where I pinched my hand adjusting that pipe safety for my daughter last week. GRRR. I HATE hose things.

PS: I noticed the multi grip chin up bar is out of stock. That didn't last long!

[eddiegoodfellar]

An adjustable set has been added to the site. With the current sale they are $140 shipped.

My ****ty bench press is only 300lbs right now (i weigh about 250lbs) and unracking is killing me im pretty sure. I might have to pick up a set in the future.

Amen on flip down safeties. I hate the pin and pipes. I got Mech's last pair (I think) of flip downs... at least for my rack dimensions. They should arrive any day now.
