Talk to a squat rack specialist| Assembled Dimensions (L x W x H) | 187 cm x 52 cm x 177 cm |
| Frame | Heavy-duty 50mm x 50mm steel tubing |
| Warranty | 12 Months Parts Replacement |
If you lift at home and want squat and press safety without building a full cage, the CORTEX SR-10 stands hold a 180 kg J-Hook load and a 200 kg safety-bar load on 50mm x 50mm steel. The 15 height settings and 50 cm to 120 cm width adjustment let you dial in squats, bench and shrugs with a standard or Olympic barbell.
It suits a lifter working with a standard or Olympic barbell who needs reliable spot bars for solo heavy sets, with two 50mm pegs on board for plate storage. Covered by a 12-month parts replacement warranty, and backed by our 100-day money-back guarantee so you can trial it at home.
What stands out is the 50 cm to 120 cm width adjustment: I can set these stands narrow or wide to suit the bar and the lift and still rack cleanly.
With no pull-up bar or band pegs, they aren't ideal if you want pull-up work or band anchors. The real strength is the 200 kg safety bars, which let you push heavy squats solo with confidence.

The width adjusts from 50 cm out to 120 cm, so you can set the stands to match your barbell and your lift.
Narrow it for pressing movements, widen it for squats and bench work.
What this means for you: One pair of stands covers squats, presses and shrugs without needing a separate setup for each.
At 177 cm tall and 52 cm deep, these stands sit well under a standard 2.4 m ceiling and hold a loaded bar for the big compound lifts.
Squats, overhead presses, shrugs and bench press (with a bench) all run off the one setup.
What this means for you: A barbell home gym that handles the main lifts without the floor space of a full four-post rack.
Set the j-hooks low and add your own bench to run flat and incline bench press, with the safety spot bars catching the bar if a set goes wrong.
The 15 height settings let you dial in the hook position for your arm length and bench height.
What this means for you: You can press heavy solo and let the spot bars do the catching, so there's no need for a training partner.
Raise the j-hooks for back squats and overhead press, then drop the safety bars to a sensible catch height for the lift.
The 180 kg j-hook rating and 200 kg safety bar rating give room to progress loads over time.
What this means for you: Leg day and shoulder day both run off the one pair of stands.
Two 50 mm pegs hold your Olympic plates on the stands, so loaded discs stay off the floor and within reach.
The pegs take Olympic tri-grip, fractional, bumper or commercial Olympic plates.
What this means for you: Changing plates mid-session is quicker when they're racked next to you rather than scattered on the floor.
The j-hooks come padded, so your barbell knurling and finish don't grind against bare steel when you rack and unrack.
They carry a 180 kg load rating, which covers the working weights of most home lifters.
What this means for you: Your bar sits on padding rather than raw metal, so repeated racking won't chew up the knurl.

Effort: 4 assembly steps in the manual, using the supplied M10 bolts, washers and nuts.
It ships flat-packed in a single box measuring 179 cm x 27 cm x 12 cm, with a gross weight of about 30 kg, so it moves as a long, narrow parcel rather than a bulky crate. On delivery day, check the box for any transit damage before you sign, and have a clear space ready to unpack and lay out the parts.
Take photos before unpacking and email them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We'll lodge the freight claim, organise replacement parts or a full unit, and stay across it until you're set up. You don't deal with the courier or CORTEX directly, that's our job.
The manual covers it in 4 steps. You bolt the base, brace and upright tubes together on each side with the supplied M10 bolts, washers and nuts, join the two sides with the long base tube, lock the width with the knobs, then slot in the adjustable tubes and plate pegs. Check every bolt is tight before you load the bar.
It carries a 12-month parts replacement warranty, handled by us here in Australia. If this page shows the 100 Day Money Back Guarantee badge, you also have 100 days to change your mind: return it as-new, disassembled and in the original packaging with all parts, and we refund the product price plus your original delivery fee. No restocking fee. We book the return freight; you cover that cost.
Assembled, it measures 187 cm long, 52 cm wide and 177 cm tall, and the gap between the uprights adjusts from 50 cm to 120 cm. At 177 cm it clears a standard 2.4 m ceiling with plenty of headroom. The manual asks for a flat, level floor with at least 2 m of free space around the rack, plus room either side for loading plates onto the bar.
The J-hooks are rated to 180 kg and the safety spot bars to 200 kg, so it handles serious squatting and pressing loads for most home lifters. It suits beginners through to experienced trainers who want a compact rack without a full cage footprint. Match your bar and plates to those limits and you're well within range.
Yes. The two uprights join through a long base tube and lock anywhere from 50 cm to 120 cm apart with the knobs, so you can set them narrow for pressing or wide for a full squat stance. They take both standard and Olympic barbells, and the 15 height settings let you dial the J-hook position to your exact unrack height. That flexibility is where these stands earn their keep.
The adjustable safety spot bars are rated to 200 kg and catch a failed rep, which is the main reason to choose stands like these over simple squat stands. Set them just below your bottom position for squats or chest level for bench work. They're genuinely reassuring for solo training, though always test the height with an empty bar first.
