Overview
The Rogue Parallel Landmine Handle is a heavy-duty, American-made attachment designed specifically for landmine training, such as heavy rows, pulls, and rotational work. Constructed from 1/4” laser-cut steel, this handle features a fully welded, seamless frame that slides directly onto any standard Olympic barbell sleeve. Its offset design minimizes contact with the barbell sleeve, maximizing plate loadability and providing superior balance during heavy lifting.

Key Features and Specifications
Manufacturing: Made in the USA from 0.25" thick laser-cut steel plating.
Compatibility: Fits any standard Olympic barbell. Designed for use with Rogue Landmine, Post Landmine, and Monster Landmine systems.
Grip Options: Available in two diameter configurations:
Standard: 1.3" (32MM) diameter.

Product Weight: 11.5 lbs (Standard) or 13.5 lbs (Fat Grip).
Finish: Rogue signature Texture Black powder coat for enhanced grip and durability.
Sleeve Protection: Features a beveled, seamless collar interior to prevent scratching or excessive wear on your barbell's sleeves.
Performance Benefits
Dedicated Landmine Design: Unlike multi-purpose handles, the fully welded offset frame ensures the attachment stays tight to the body while allowing for maximum plate loading.
Neutral Grip Advantage: The parallel handle configuration promotes a strong, neutral grip, which reduces stress on the wrists and shoulders while emphasizing upper back and lat recruitment.
Enhanced Durability: The overbuilt, seamless steel frame is designed to withstand the high-torque demands of rotational drills and heavy rowing without flexing or bending.
Internal Beveling: The precision-machined interior collar ensures the handle slides on and off smoothly without damaging the finish of premium barbells.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning: Wipe down the handles with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove sweat, chalk, and oil. For the textured powder coat, a soft nylon brush can help remove deeply embedded chalk.
Surface Protection: Periodically inspect the powder coat for chips. While the texture black finish is highly resistant to corrosion, touching up any deep metal exposure will prevent oxidation.
Sleeve Care: Ensure the interior of the handle collar is free of grit or metal shavings before sliding it onto a barbell to maintain the protective benefits of the beveled design.
Storage: Store in a dry, indoor environment. Avoid leaving the handle on the barbell for extended periods when not in use to prevent any potential moisture buildup between the sleeve and the attachment.
Warranty Information
Limited Lifetime Warranty: Rogue Fitness warrants the structural steel and welds of the Parallel Landmine Handle against defects in material and workmanship for the lifetime of the original purchaser.
Standard Exclusions: The warranty does not cover damage to the powder coat finish, damage caused by improper use (such as dropping the handle directly onto concrete), or damage to the barbell used in conjunction with the handle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which grip size should I choose?
A: The 32MM (Standard) is ideal for most athletes and feels similar to a standard pull-up bar. The 48MM (Fat Grip) is excellent for those looking to prioritize grip strength and forearm development.
Q: Can I use this with a cable machine?
A: No. This handle is dedicated to landmine work and does not have a cable clevis. For a dual-purpose option, look at the Rogue LM-1P Parallel Landmine Handle & Cable Attachment.
Q: Will this fit my 1" diameter "standard" bar?
A: No. This handle is designed exclusively for Olympic barbells with 2" (50MM) sleeves.
Q: How should I position the handle during use?
A: For optimal balance and safety, ensure the flat side of the Parallel Landmine Handle is facing toward the weight plates.
