  • Westside hole spacing through the bench zone for precise setup
  • Heavy 5/8-inch hardware for added stability

How they stack up

Force USA MyRack

The only rack here with a built-in cable ecosystem, but built from thinner 12-gauge steel than the 11-gauge REP PR-4000, Rogue R-3, and Titan T-3. Its proprietary 2.4-inch uprights split the difference between the 2x2 REP PR-1100 and the 3x3 PR-4000, while limiting third-party accessory compatibility.

Rogue R-3 Power Rack

Built from the same grade of 11-gauge steel, Westside spacing, and a 1,000-plus lb capacity as the REP PR-4000, but uses 2x3 uprights, costs more, and is made in the USA. Sturdier and pricier than the Titan T-3 and the budget REP PR-1100, and uses thicker steel than the Force USA MyRack.
