Key Features & Specifications
Made in the USA.
Capacity: Holds up to 3 standard barbells.
Construction: (2) 0.1875" laser-cut and formed steel brackets.
Mounting Design: Features special 1” machined pegs with a grooved, "drop-and-lock" design that secures directly into the side keyholes of a Monster upright.
Bar Protection: Includes 1" thick UHMW plastic inserts to protect barbell knurling and finish from metal-on-metal contact.

Installation & Configuration
Spacing: Brackets are typically spaced 10" on center for mounting.
Hook Spacing: Hooks are spaced 5" on center to allow for easy racking and unracking of bars.
Set-up Options:
43" Wide Space: The shaft of the bar will rest on the hooks (ideal for standard Olympic bars).
70" Wide Space: The sleeves of the bar will be supported (ideal for specialized or extra-wide configurations).
Upright Protection: Each bracket includes a stabilizing tab with a pre-installed velcro loop to prevent the storage unit from scratching the powdercoat of your rack's uprights.
Performance Benefits
Tool-Less Installation: The keyhole peg system allows for rapid attachment and height adjustment without the need for additional bolts or wrenches once assembled.
Extreme Durability: Built from the same heavy-duty steel as the Monster racks themselves, ensuring the rack will not bend or sag under the weight of multiple bars.
High-Density Protection: The 1-inch thick UHMW plastic is significantly thicker than standard liners, providing a deep, cushioned cradle for high-end competition barbells.
Maintenance and Care
Assembly: The unit ships un-assembled; ensure all internal hardware connecting the UHMW plastic to the steel brackets is tightened securely before mounting.
Cleaning: Periodically wipe the UHMW plastic slots with a damp cloth to remove chalk and dust.
Inspection: Check the velcro loops on the stabilizing tabs for wear to ensure continued protection of your upright's finish.
