Will this pad fit properly on the newer thicker (larger diameter) barbells that have become common at many gyms?

Yes it will. That is actually one of the main reasons why I bought it. Now this pad is the better than the ones at my gym. The gym pads at my gym don't even fit all the way around the thicker squat bars. I just wish the material was a little less rough, but besides that, I couldn't be happier.

Yes, it fits very well on both the normal thinner 45 lb bar as well as the thicker bar as well. I like this pad very much and find it confortable. I have been using it for several months and it is holding up like new.

My Rogue barbell is 28.5 mm in diameter and the fit is snug. It may not work well with a barbell for Power Lifting as the diameter on those barbells are at least 30 mm.

Don't know the new gym's fashion flow, but I was at Pl*net F*tness and used to do squats and it fits, not perfect but well enough.

The additional pads are a different size than the ones already in place. For a customized fit, simply remove the ones that are already in place and replace them with the desired pads.

Howard,Compare the dimensions of the pads. If yours is larger than the potential replacement, I wouldn't buy it. If they are close with the new one slightly larger, you can probably trim the excess. It's matching the holes that matters, but it shouldn't be a big concern because you can probably punch holes through the thin metal plate to match yours. To me, it's worth a shot.Al

Yes. It fits on the Olympic bars I have at The Bar Bell Club. BUT - it's a bit loose. Perhaps it's designed that way... Ken

Someone else said.."It should fit the 3000, the XL I did have it on the 1700 but they where a little wobbly. I could still use them on the 1700. The bars on the 1700 are a little slimmer then the 3000,XL. I would think these would fit on the XLS system too. HOWEVER..... Just CALL Total Gym, tell them what your model Total Gym is and they'll sell you the right version of the Ab crunch attachment. No taking chances of getting wobbly equipment.

This new version (I have both; the new one has a durable molded "hook" and the older one has a webbing strap) would most probably fit over a 1 1/4 inch bar. I have mine (the molded "plastic" hook version) over a bar that is 1 1/16 inch and there seems to be some room for flex to fit a little more no problem.

The long shank will NOT fit into the recess / indentation in standard gym lockers. Thickness (diameter) of the shank did not seem as though it would be an issue, but the length of the lock body + shank clearly is. There was now possible way (no accessible angle at which) to insert the end of the shank through the hole in the locker release mechanism -- I tried them all, even with the (open) shank depressed into the lock body. I liked the build quality, though, so will purchase one with a normal-length shank.

I bought two of these pads, one regular size and one extra large, which is thicker, to use alone. The regular size is not much but might be enough on top of a mattrress. The extra large is thicker.

I think it all depends on the locker, unfortunately. I've been to some gyms where the padlock shackle would fit in the door lock, but I don't think they would work at my current gym... To be on the safe side, I would get a lock with a shackle that isn't as thick.

Yep, it's more than wide enough for an olympic barbell. I use it for benchpress all the time. I wish the pins went a little lower though. I usually remove them. With the pins removed the white safety bars are 22.5" high. With my bench that is the perfect height that will catch the bar if I fail, but still allow me to touch my chest with the bar on normal reps. I have an incline bench that is a tad shorter than it should be when set to flat though. The pins at the lowest point are about 26.25" high for what it's worth.

It fits. But you have to shape it to your stock, and I had to plug one of the holesin my stock, and drill a new hole to coincide with the new pad. It is a very nice pad.

The huge majority of bikes I've owned or seen use these pads. I have seen a few bikes that seem to feature factory-issued elongated pads, but these universal pads would still work as replacements.

No.They only work with bars/dumbells with grip diameter same as that of an Olympic bar.

The shoulder and universal pad are very close to the same size. I believe they are the largest ones available but not positive.

I don't know about that brand, sorry. BUT when we get pads that are a bit big we just tuck them under and inch or so and it works fine. I love the holder. It's sturdy and easy to use. I've used 3 types of pads so far and all have needed to be tucked under on one side.

No this plate fits standard Olympic bars. Olympic bars have a diameter of 2 inches.
