Product Details

The Bells of Steel Converter Bench is proof that a flat bench doesn’t have to... fall flat.

  • Big versatility → 6+ configurations from one bench — standalone flat, makeshift incline, two-post, four-post, rack drop-in, and combo rack setup.
  • IPF height everywhere → Every configuration hits competition spec height — not just one. Same setup, same feel, no matter how you run it.
  • Modular design → Start simple, expand later. Works with Hydra and Manticore uprights, specialty crossmembers, and rack attachments.
  • Foot-tuck friendly → Single-post angled front foot (and floating design in rack setups) keeps your lower body free for proper leg drive.
  • Makeshift incline → Pop the front foot off and you’ve got a 27.6° incline — no second bench eating up space.
  • Heavy-duty build → Thick gauge steel, competition-style padding, and UHMW protection underneath so it won’t chew up your rack.
  • Stable under load → Designed to stay planted and centered so your setup doesn’t shift when the weight gets heavy.
  • Move it when you want → Wheels and a handle make it easy to reposition — because your gym layout isn’t permanent.


Why the Converter Bench?

Because most flat benches do one thing — and then just sit there.

  • One bench, multiple roles → Replaces a flat bench, incline bench (for most people), and dedicated bench station setups.
  • Consistent performance → Same height, same feel, across every configuration so your training stays dialed in.
  • Space-efficient → Perfect for home gyms that want more function without more equipment.
  • Built for serious lifters → Stable, heavy, and designed for powerlifting-style training — not casual use.

It’s not just a bench. It’s a platform that adapts with your gym.

Product Features

  • 3 Configurations From One Bench

    Standalone flat, makeshift incline, power rack drop-in with converter crossmember. Choose the setup that works for you.

  • IPF Height in EVERY Setup

    We engineered the bench height to stay within IPF competition specs whether it’s standalone, on Hydra uprights, Manticore uprights, or in the combo rack, so you have consistency with every setup.

  • Makeshift Incline — 27.6°

    Pop the front foot off with optional mag pins, set it down, and you’ve got an incline bench. It’s the perfect compromise for people who live on the flat bench but want occasional incline work.

  • Single-Post Angled Front Foot

    Powerlifters, this one’s for you. The single post angles outward for stability while staying completely out of the way for tucked-feet benching.

  • Heavy-Duty, Thick Gauge Steel

    This bench is built for the toughest training. Thick gauge steel, thick padding, UHMW lining underneath. It’s built to handle serious weight, period.

  • Full-Length Support

    Long enough to support your entire setup without hanging off the edge. Set your arch and stay there.

  • Wheels & Handle for Easy Transport & Storage

    Heavy doesn’t mean immovable. Roll it where you need it, store it upright when you don’t.

  • Removable Feet

    Buy just the pad + frame or, or get the full set with feet for standalone use (ships in 2 boxes). Your call.

  • Thick Pad Built to Press Heavy

    Dense, supportive padding that stays comfortable under load without feeling soft or unstable.

Product Details

The Converter Bench isn’t a one-trick setup. It’s a modular system—build it how you want, change it when you need.

Run it as a standalone flat bench. A makeshift incline bench. Set it up as a four-post bench station or two-post bench station. Drop it into your Manticore or Hydra rack (or one of our competitors with matching 3” x 3” upright specs) with the optional 43" specialty crossmember. Or pair it with our upcoming combo rack for a full competition setup. 

One bench, multiple configurations—no compromises.

And here’s where it gets serious: every setup maintains IPF competition height. 

Doesn’t matter if it’s on its own feet, mounted to 60" Hydra or Manticore uprights, or locked into the combo rack—the height stays consistent. That wasn’t an accident. IPF specs are tight, and hitting them across multiple configurations (with different upright spacings) took real engineering work.

Also, this bad boy is a tank. Thick gauge steel. Competition-style padding. UHMW lining underneath so it doesn’t chew up your rack. The front foot is a single-post design that angles out for stability—while leaving room for lifters who like to tuck their feet back and actually use their leg drive. Want an incline without another bench? For more versatility, grab 2 Manticore Mag Pins (Full Length), so you can pop the pins, remove the front foot, and unlock a 27.6° setup. Simple.

Grab just the pad and frame if you’re integrating it into a rack or combo setup. Or go with the full version with removable feet for standalone use, or if you’re a little fickle and want to change it up now and then. Wheels and a handle make it easy to move—because heavy doesn’t have to mean stuck.

This is for powerlifters and serious home gym owners who want one bench that adapts with them. The flat bench hasn’t changed in years.

We figured it should.

IMPORTANT: 43" Specialty Crossmember required to drop the Converter Bench into a rack. Mounting brackets are spaced to fit 24" depth for floating bench configuration (no feet).
