If you want 1" hole spacing throughout the entire rack, you need both Lowered J-cups 2.0 and Standard J-cups; when setting up to lift, pick one or the other, depending on the exact height needed. These cups are lowered 1” below the standard 5000 Series J-cups so they fill in the gaps between the normal 2" hole spacing. They feature a soft, textured, protective lining on the front, bottom, and back of the cup that shields both the bar and the uprights. The bottom lining is one piece, to prevent the rotation of the liners. These cups don’t move while in use, unlike other J-cups. Hardware is also recessed to protect the barbell. The cups are heavy duty, tough enough to handle 1,000lbs of weight. Yet they are lightweight, at only 4.9lbs each.
They’re laser cut, made from steel, and bent with rounded corners for safety. The 5000 Series cups have a lower profile and nothing beneath the cups for a cleaner look. With the lower-profile J-cup, you can mount the safeties closer to the J-cups to get that perfect setting. These J-cups are finished with a metallic black powder coat that's resistant to chips and scratches to keep your gym looking fresh for years. Lowered J-cups are made for 3x3” uprights with 1” pin holes and are compatible with PR-5000, Omni, Apollo, and Oxylus. They are sold in pairs and extend off the rack 3.8”.

Cosmetically:
-The updated J-cups use bent steel with a lower profile and have nothing beneath the J-cup for a cleaner look.
-The finish is now a metallic black powder coat rather than matte black to make it more resistant to chips and scratches.
-The Lowered J-cups are now the same height as the Standard J-cups.
Functionally:
-With the lower profile J-cup, you can mount the safety straps closer to the J-cups to get the perfect setting for the strap.
-Plastic liners are now more secure to ensure they don’t move while in use. They feature four screws on the top liner rather than two like before. And the bottom liners are attached together rather than being two separate pieces, preventing them from shifting.
The updated J-cups are made with bent steel. This manufacturing process makes the J-cup strong enough that it no longer needs the additional, welded support pieces on the bottom. The updated J-cups have the same static weight capacity of 1,000lbs.
PR-5000 Uprights have 2” hole spacing throughout the uprights. If you want 1" hole spacing throughout the entire rack, you need both Lowered J-cups 2.0 and Standard J-cups. With the 5000 Series Standard J-cups 2.0, select a hole placement on the upright that you believe will work for your lift. If you need the spacing just one inch lower, remove the Standard J-cups and replace them with Lowered J-cups 2.0, using the same hole placement. The bottom of the Lowered J-cup will now be an inch lower for your lifts.
The only J-cup that will create 1” hole spacing with the original Lowered J-cups are the 5000 Series original Standard J-cups and 2.0.
