Sandwich Cups that will fit RML

[Gneejack]

Are there any other company brands that sells sandwich cups besides Rogue that will fit onto their RML racks? Also some insights into other alternatives for flip down safeties that will fit into the RML 43 inch depth would be greatly appreciated.

What's wrong with the Rogue sandwich j-cups? I liked mine.

You been living under a rock the last 6 months?

To answer your question: Titan Fitness. You may need to drill out your holes slightly - which can be done easily with a step bit. You may not need to though.

Rep PR-4000 j-cups should work but they might also be hard to find in stock.

Check the usual suspects for similar sizes: Rep Fitness, Titan, American Barbell, Bells of Steel, Vulcan Strength, GetRxd, ect. The first two typically have interchangeable parts with Rogue, REP's 4000 series and Titan's X3. But unless you refresh their site's daily you might have trouble finding them in stock. Flip down safeties might be harder to find at 43", might want to consider just buying regular spotter arms and using them inside the rack if you are looking to replace a pin/pipe system.

Get the step bit ready.....

Northern Lights makes a pair that should fit the RML 43". I purchased mine from BWTG, but the finish was poor (crooked UHMW, couple sketchy welds) for the money and Dean really didn't give a s**t so I can't recommend BWTG.

I'm ordering and receiving lots of stuff from Rogue. From what's on craigslist, so are a bunch of other guys who are getting stuff and flipping it.

Set the email in stock notification and act within 10 minutes of receiving the email.

Personally, I wouldn't bother with any of the options besides Rogue. The Rep 4000 ones supposedly fit but I have heard people having to sand theirs down because it's too tight. I don't feel like dealing with anything like that or having to drill out the holes in my rack. You can overpay for some Ghost Strong ones but I think those are total overkill.

Thanks for all the replies. I guess I'll just wait for Rogue to get them back in stock. Much appreciated, fellas.

They're not emailing any more. Hence all the "in stock notification" threads and aps out there.

When did the emails stop? I had one less than a month ago.

Not really sure. Last one I got was April 2nd. Hot items like plates, bars, and racks were selling out before the email is sent. I don't know what triggers the notification to be sent, and whether it's automated or not, but if you think to yourself "I'll just wait for the email" you will lose on those hot ticket items. I wouldn't think sandwhich j-cups would fall into that same category, but I wouldn't want to leave it up to chance.

It is automated, but in the case of most companies that send large volumes of email the trigger simply queues up the email. The batch is then sent at a designated time of day, every X hours, etc. This is fine for most items under normal circumstances, but in the case of items in high demand they can sell out before the emails even get sent.

Waited on the email notification from Rogue on their adjustable mono's, but Titan was in stock first so they got the order. Never had much luck with email notifications, I get so much junk it usually get's lost in the inbox/spam.

Thinking as a business owner...If I were in Rogue's shoes I'd be creating only two types of products in this market 1. Foundational items to get people into our ecosystem (Racks, Bars, Plates, Benches, and Echo bikes), and 2. Items with the highest margin. Everything else would be stopped for the time being. It's my observation that that's exactly what they've done. I've been on their list for a rackable curl bar and horizontal plate tree for months and months...no dice. Meanwhile things like racks, plates, bikes etc have been coming in and going out of stock constantly.

Ironically enough, the moment I say this I got notification this evening that the mono's were in stock. LOL
