Performance Benefits
Superior Stability: The updated design replaces the traditional connecting crossmember with high-traction rubber feet. This ensures the handles stay locked in place even during explosive swing-throughs or weighted movements.
Customizable Spacing: Because the handles are independent and stable, athletes can instantly adjust the width between them to suit their body type or specific exercise requirements without adjusting a cross-bar.
Full-Body Engagement: While rooted in gymnastics, these parallettes are highly effective for building strength in the chest, shoulders, triceps, core, and even the legs through deep-range bodyweight movements.
Space-Saving Storage: The bolt-together handles can be nested together when not in use, making them an ideal solution for home gyms or crowded training facilities.
Maintenance and Care
Hardware Check: Periodically inspect the 1/2" bolts and nuts to ensure they remain tight. Heavy usage and dynamic movements can cause hardware to settle over time.
Grip Maintenance: Wipe down the handles regularly to remove sweat and excessive chalk buildup. The textured powder coat is durable but performs best when kept clean of debris.
Rubber Feet: Inspect the rubber feet for wear or embedded grit that could scratch delicate flooring. Ensure they are free of dust to maintain maximum floor traction.
Indoor Storage: While the powder coat is highly resistant, it is recommended to store the parallettes indoors to prevent oxidation on the internal steel surfaces.
Warranty Information
Structural Welds: Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Frames: Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Exclusions: The warranty does not cover damage due to negligent or faulty use, alteration, or improper maintenance. Normal wear and tear on the powder coat finish and rubber feet are also excluded.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these tall enough for deep dips?
A: At 14" high, these allow for significant range of motion. However, taller athletes may need to tuck their knees for full-extension dips compared to using full-sized parallel bars.
Q: Do I need a specific wrench size for assembly?
A: The kit uses 1/2" hardware, which typically requires a 3/4" wrench or socket for tightening.
Q: Can I use these on hardwood or tile floors?
A: Yes. The included protective rubber feet are specifically designed to grip the surface and protect your flooring from scratches.
Q: How many bolts are used for each handle?
A: Each handle bolts to its base tubes using the provided carriage bolts and nylock nuts, ensuring a solid, zero-wobble connection.
