The FB-5000 is a flat, competition-style bench that is designed to meet the International Powerlifting Federation’s height standards, so lifters can properly prepare for a meet. With a stable tripod foot design, the bench’s legs are out of the way of the lifter’s foot placement, allowing for optimal leg drive. The high-density, 4” thick pad is made with our extra grippy CleanGrip™ material, and it can be swapped out for our wider pad (14”), if preferred. The bench is also compatible with the Thompson Fat pad (with 4-bolt mounting pattern as used on all newer production models).
This bench is made with 3x3” 11-gauge steel with a weight capacity of 1,000lbs. Although it can handle a heavy load, the FB-5000 only weighs 62lbs and takes up 7.36SQFT of space, and the integrated steel handle and industrial roller wheels make it easy to maneuver. Grooved, rubber feet help hold the bench in place, while also protecting the floor. Build strength with this essential, cost-effective piece of equipment.

The FB-5000 is a competition-style bench that features a thick CleanGrip™ back pad. The tripod base doesn’t interfere with foot placement during setup to optimize leg drive.
We recommend holding the bench down on one side, loosening the bolts on that side, and tightening until the bench pad is level and secure.
A mild dish detergent and water are the best cleaning agents for poly-vinyl pads. Use a sponge or clean cloth and soapy water to wipe to remove dirt and sweat from the vinyl. The CleanGrip™ material is grippy enough to shred a paper towel, so use cloth instead.
The new REP CleanGrip™ pads feature several improvements over our existing standard vinyl pads. The pad is now grippier than standard vinyl. It is comfortable yet firm and extra durable, with reinforced edges so the material stays taut. Read all about CleanGrip™ material here.
