Rae Crowther Varsity Patriot Half Rack


Description

The Rae Crowther Varsity Patriot Half Rack is a commercial-grade strength training rack built for serious athletic programs, school weight rooms, and high-traffic training facilities. Constructed from welded structural 3" x 3" steel 11-gauge tubing, this rack is engineered to hold up through years of daily punishment without flexing or loosening over time. Assembly is straightforward - the pre-welded left and right frames simply connect together, getting you up and running fast with minimal setup effort.

Every detail on the Varsity Patriot is designed with coaches and athletes in mind. Laser-cut numbered upright holes provide precise 2" bar catch adjustments, and the best-in-class bar catches at this price point feature wide plastic hand protection and metal-to-metal contact guards on the uprights. From the standard Monkey Chin Bar to the heavy-duty safety bars and ten zinc-plated weight horns, this rack delivers professional-level function at a competitive price point.


Key Features

  • Welded 3" x 3" 11-Gauge Steel Frames: Structural tubing provides exceptional rigidity - left and right side frames bolt together for quick, solid assembly.
  • 33 Laser-Cut Numbered Upright Holes: Numbers cut on both sides of each upright allow precise 2" bar catch adjustments for athletes of all sizes.
  • Premium Bar Catches: Industry-leading design at this price point features 1" wide plastic hand protection and interior plastic guards to prevent metal-to-metal contact with the uprights.
  • Standard Monkey Chin Bar: Includes a 1-3/8" front bar, a 2" fat bar, and 4 parallel chinning areas for a variety of upper-body movements.
  • 10 Zinc-Plated Weight Horns: Bumper plates fit on the lower three pins; bottom three horns are 12" long and top two are 6" long for organized plate storage.
  • Heavy-Duty 29" Safety Bars: Painted matte crinkle black for grip and durability, with hard plastic protection on the top and sides.
  • Dimensions - 8'3" Tall x 5'3" Length: Full-height rack profile suitable for overhead pressing and pull-up movements in standard ceiling height facilities.
  • Weight - 311 lbs: Substantial frame weight provides a stable, planted feel during heavy lifts.

FAQ

How difficult is assembly?

Assembly is straightforward. The left and right frame sections come pre-welded from the factory, so you simply connect the two sides together. No complex multi-piece frame assembly is required. Most facilities can complete setup with two people in a short amount of time.

Will bumper plates fit on the weight horns?

Yes. Bumper plates are designed to fit on the lower three weight horn pins, which are 12" long to accommodate the larger diameter of bumper plates. The upper two pins are 6" long and are better suited for standard iron plates.

What ceiling height is needed to use this rack?

The Varsity Patriot Half Rack stands 8'3" tall. You will want a minimum ceiling clearance of around 9 feet to comfortably use the chin bar and perform overhead movements. Higher ceilings are always preferred in weight room environments.

Can I choose a custom color to match my school or team?

The Varsity Patriot Half Rack is available in 10 colors: Black, Silver, Grey, Royal, Navy, Red, Orange, Purple, Green, and White.
