Key Features and Specifications
Compatibility: Safely stores TANK M1-101, M1-102, and M1S sled models.
Protective Design: Features PVC dip-coated saddles to prevent the metal hanger from scratching the sled's finish.
Wall Protection: Includes a bottom rail designed to cushion the sled's bottom tire, preventing black tire marks on your gym or garage wall.
Versatile Anchors: Equipped with 5 attachment hooks/anchors (upper and lower), which can be used to store accessories (V-straps, ropes) or as stationary anchor points for battle ropes and monster bands.
Dimensions (On Wall): 40.2” Width x 17.8” Length x 8.6” Height.
Weight: 6 lbs (13.2 kg).
Included Hardware: Ships with (8) 3/8” x 2-1/2” lag bolts and washers specifically for wood stud mounting.
Handle Support: Built to accommodate both standard Performance handles and M1 Wheelbarrow handles.
Performance Benefits
Maximum Floor Space: Sleds have a notoriously large footprint; hanging the M1 vertically reclaims valuable square footage for lifting and agility work.
Dual-Purpose Station: Turns a storage area into a functional training hub. You can keep your resistance bands and tow straps hanging on the hooks, ready for immediate use.
Easy Access: The saddle design allows the athlete to easily "hook" the sled handles into place and pull them down without needing complex locking pins or secondary assistance.
Clean Aesthetics: Keeps your training environment organized and professional, preventing the sled from being a tripping hazard in small garage setups.
Maintenance and Care
Mounting Security: Regularly inspect the lag bolts to ensure they remain tight in the wood studs. The weight of the M1 (75+ lbs) combined with the leverage of taking it on and off can stress mounting hardware over time.
PVC Saddle Care: Periodically check the PVC coating on the saddles for any tears. If the metal of the hanger is exposed, it may scratch the powder coat of the sled handles.
Sensor Clearance: When hanging the sled, be mindful of the TANK M1 Console sensor and wiring (if equipped) to ensure they aren't pinched or crushed against the wall.
Cleaning: Wipe the hanger and bottom wall rail with a damp cloth to remove any outdoor debris or rubber residue from the sled's tires.
Installation Notes
The hanger is designed for mounting to standard wood studs. If you are installing into masonry, concrete, or metal studs, you must source appropriate heavy-duty anchors separately. To determine the height, it is recommended to hold the M1 in the desired vertical position against the wall and mark the saddle locations before drilling.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this for the TANK M4 or MX? A: No. This hanger is specifically sized for the three-wheel M1 and M1S models. The larger four-wheel tanks are too wide and heavy for this specific bracket.
Q: Do I need to remove the handles to hang the sled? A: No. The hanger is designed to support the sled by the handles themselves.
Q: Will it hold the TANK M1 if I have the dumbbell cradles attached? A: Yes, as long as the handles are properly seated in the PVC saddles, the added weight of the cradles is not an issue (though it is recommended to remove the actual dumbbells before hanging).
Q: Does it come with instructions for the bottom rail placement? A: The bottom rail acts as a cushion/spacer. Most users mount it where the bottom tire naturally rests against the wall when the handles are in the top saddles.
