Kipika J-Hooks for 2'x2'and 3'x3' Power Rack - Bottom Reinforced Steel Hooks with Rubber Pad - Set of 2

I use these on my rack and they feel very sturdy. I’m not lifting insanely heavy weight but with 300lbs on them they haven’t budged. Easy to take on and off, fit pretty tight once they are on, and make me feel safe under them. They work very well and are a great value for money.

I was nervous since some of the reviews reported difficulty with re-racking the bar on these hooks. I've had no trouble. The "lip" doesn't play a role for me getting the bar back in the hooks. For reference, I'm using this on a (discontinued) Mikolo 2x2 upright. I have no shifting/clinking. They are great quality and I think they look great and function as expected.

These J-hooks are exactly what I needed for my power rack setup. They fit perfectly with the included extra sleeves and feel incredibly solid. The reinforced steel construction gives me confidence that they’ll hold up under heavy weight, and the nylon stays provide a smooth racking experience. The rubber padding helps prevent metal-on-metal contact, which protects the barbell and the rack itself. For strength training setups, these are a great upgrade over stock J-hooks and provide a more professional feel.

5-Star Review: Excellent Quality and PerformanceI’m extremely happy with my purchase! The build quality is excellent, and they feel very sturdy and well-made. I’ve had zero issues with them, and they’ve exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re considering buying these, I highly recommend them—you won’t be disappointed!

Great for the price. I wish they were a little taller to make racking easier

Good quality. I purchased the hooks for a 2x2 post and they fit perfectly, not too loose but easy to install.

Nice rubber protection to keep the finish of my BELLS OF STEEL Buffalo Bar protected…so far these are a winner, and very reasonably priced. Fit and finish were excellent. Will report back after beating on them a while. For now, highly recommended. I've now had these through several workouts and they are proving themselves every time. I'm extremely happy with these.

Upon first sight of these J-hooks on Amazon, I thought they would be a great fit for my needs. Holding them in my hands upon arrival, I was initially pleased with what I received. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse.Firstly, there are two screws on each hook holding the rubber padding. This is a problematic design as the screws exit on the other side, causing damage to the paint on the rack. Before installing these, double-check that the screws are not sticking out.Secondly, these are not exactly 2x2 but 1/16 over 2”, which may not seem like a lot, but it’s enough to create a gap between the hook and the rack, resulting in a lot of noise and it does not feel very secure. To address this, I added two small pads used for furniture legs, which alleviated the issue to a greater extent.Thirdly, the rubber back of the J-hook is too short. Considering that my arms are not short when racking the barbell after doing a bench press, the barbell sometimes hits above the J-hook, causing a jerky movement and also scraping off the paint on the rack, as can be seen in my photos.Overall, I regret trying to save money by buying this product. I should have opted for a known brand and better quality hooks, which I now need to purchase anyway, along with fixing the paint job on my rack.
