If I buy the 52.5 lb set will the bars hold up to 100 or are they to short?

The 52lb and 100lb set use the same size bar, as with anything else i would double check with the supplier. I have the 100lb set and they come with 8-10lb plates per bar, it looks like the 52.5 is 8-5lb plates and will fit on the same bar.

Look up the 102.5-LB set and check the length of the bars, then compare that to the length of the bars listed on the 52.5-LB set.

Hi Wesley,Sorry I am not able to answer your question. We only use the bar with 125 and 147 pounds of load.However it holds fine at these weights.Good luck in your research.

Seems like the shorter bars are what make the difference. Grips don't play a part in that. These are great by the way.

The stand is meant for a set from 32 inch - 55 inch it holds up to 90 lb set so weight shouldn't matter but I would question the width

I have a friend that goes around 340, it held him fine! For the price they are very well made. J bought them for our home bar and they look great, thinking about buying another set for our kitchen snack bar,

I have the 50lb (each) classic set of powerblocks and it works just fine. Hope this helps.

I cant tell you what the book says about weight limits but what I can tell you is that I am 265 pound man and I stand on them all the time and they are pretty sturdy. I figure if they can hold me up they can hold anybody. I have even jumped on the them playing around.

Weight is no problem. I don't recomend them for Yackima racks. They need a square bar to work well. Like Tulie

The bar I bought takes 1" plates, not Olympic-style plates. I have a pair of 50s I keep on mine, and it could fit 8 or 10 on a side, though I don't know if the bar itself could handle that much weight. I've had low 300s on mine (I'm 68, my heavy days are over) and everything was fine.

The bars may be too long for something like that. It would be pretty sweet for sure though. You'd probably want to measure and plan out carefully before buying them.

I have a 48" on there right now. it's on a little stand that's about a foot long so it fits. I think if your 52" is on a stand it will work but the warnings on the side say not to go above 44".

Not sure, but it seems sturdy enough. The bar comes in three sections, and you have to drive these four steel pins into the bar with a hammer to secure it. It'd probably be fine with 100lbs or so, but I might get a little nervous after that. But again, I have not used this for bench presses at all.

yes the set is supposed to include all 5 and the 31 inch bar. the first set I received did not have the shortest bar (7 inch) but amazon sent me a new set with all bars and I returned the original set with amazon paying shipping. This is a great set of bars, would not hesitate to buy again.

My bar is 44" inches high and these bar stools would work great. They are of very good quality and well worth the $$.

I don't have many but the bar weighs 50 lbs and it can hold upto 750lbs. I think using my limited amount of plates that 4 or 5 plates per side would be easy for it. I have a picture of my plates on @whey2muscle twitter page.

The 6 foot bar is a little short. The plates will not be outside the rack. I modified my 6 foot standard bar by wrapping duct tape around the bar to stop the plates from moving on the bar.

Yes they will hold upto 200lbs per hang ring (total 400lbs) per set from what I have read. I have them supporting a trapeze bar from the ceiling.
