Kraken Rack Attachment for 6 Post Manticore Racks (Single Side)
The Kraken is a compact rack-mounted cable system, turning your 3” x 3” 6-post power rack with 1” holes into a dual-handle cable tower with 5lbs to 210+lbs of resistance! All of this while maintaining the use of your barbell and rack attachments.
It comes in two versions:Â
- Plate-Loaded: use your weight plates to save big bucks
- Weight Stack:Â a convenient 210-pound stack for quick, no-fuss adjustments
Thanks to the knurled handle, nylon rollers and chrome-coated pop pins, the trolleys are adjustable with a single hand. By using your uprights’ holes for height selections, you can fine-tune the feel of nearly all your cable exercises.
The Kraken saves the clangin’ & bangin’ for your barbell lifts; its aluminum pulleys and dual guide rods deliver the kind of velvety smoothness you'd expect at a commercial gym — but without the crowds, the dude grunting in the corner, and that fit-fluencer hogging the Smith Machine for “just one more angle.”
The dual aluminum handles have 6002 bearings, rotating as smoothly as a barbell, and allow bilateral exercises from a single upright. A single cable features a 2:1 pull ratio (10lbs feels like 5lbs), tackling everything from rehab work to isolations. Plus, the cable travel offers uninterrupted focus during sport-specific drills or while getting that joooooicy bicep pump.
When connected with the cable adapter, the Kraken converts into a glorious 1:1 pull ratio — perfect for heavy lat pulldowns & low rows — with no need to buy a separate weight pack expansion down the road.
Safety is no afterthought either — the Weight Stack version features an optional Shroud that does double duty: protecting fingers (big and small) AND acting as a pegboard, keeping your cable attachments neatly stowed using their included hooks. This means more family time while keeping your little ones safe… because a home gym shouldn't need a “Caution: Dangerous Sh*t EVERYWHERE” sign.
A Single Side of the Kraken Includes:
- Two aluminum handles
- One cable adapter
- Aluminum pulley wheels
- Cables
- Trolley
- Guide rods
- Weight carriage or weight stacks
- Mounting brackets
- Mounting hardware
