Torque Upper Band Peg Attachment

Is the Torque Upper Band Peg Attachment worth buying if I already own a Torque rack?

Absolutely. If you want to add accommodating resistance to your Olympic lifts, this attachment is a cost-effective upgrade. It mounts directly to compatible Torque uprights without extra hardware, is built from heavy-duty steel for long-term durability, and is sold as a pair so you're ready to train immediately. It's a straightforward way to increase training variety on a rack you already own.

Which Torque racks are compatible with the Upper Band Peg Attachment?

The Upper Band Peg Attachment is compatible with the X-RACK, X-SIEGE, Arsenal, and Armament racks. It mounts to uprights that do not have a ball target on them. If you're unsure whether your specific rack model qualifies, contacting Torque's support team before purchasing is recommended to confirm compatibility.

What does the Torque Upper Band Peg Attachment actually do?

It allows you to attach resistance bands to the top of your rack uprights, enabling you to combine band resistance with Olympic bar training. This technique, known as accommodating resistance, adds tension throughout your lift, helping build strength and power. It's commonly used for squats, deadlifts, and bench press variations.

How does the Upper Band Peg Attachment mount to the rack?

The attachment mounts to the top of compatible Torque rack uprights. It's designed for a secure, tool-friendly installation directly onto the upright without requiring modifications. Just ensure your upright does not have a ball target on top, as that configuration is not compatible with this attachment.

Does the Upper Band Peg Attachment come as a single unit or a pair?

It is sold as a pair, so you receive two pegs in one purchase. This means you have everything needed to set up resistance band training on both sides of your rack right away, without needing to buy additional units separately.

What bands are recommended for use with the Upper Band Peg Attachment?

The attachment is designed to work with standard looped resistance bands commonly used in powerlifting and strength training. While Torque does not restrict you to a specific brand of band, using heavy-duty, loop-style resistance bands is recommended for safety and performance. Ensure band thickness and tension levels match your training goals and experience level.
