Description
Our cables are engineered for extreme long life, 5 to 10 times longer than the original cable. We have only had 7 cables break since 2003 and we have shipped well over 25,000 cables. There are three major upgrades that have resulted in our greatly improved cable; 1.) Instead of using 7-7 (7 bundles of 7 wires, not very fatigue resistant) we use extremely fatigue resistant 7-19 cable; 2.) Our cable is coated with much tougher Nylon instead of Vinyl; 3.) We make the ends, eyelets or stops, in our shop from 316 stainless steel.
The cable on this page is the Huck Products Replacement Cable for any retail Total Gym® with Plastic Frame Handles that looks kind of like a horse stirrup. Look at the handle frame, not just the grip. Note: this cable will ONLY work with Total Gyms® that have this type of plastic frame handles. If your handles have metal frames or Nylon Webbing Strap handles you need the cable for metal handles with eyelets. The same model of Total Gym® might have either kind of handle.
The original retail Total Gym® cables vary in length from 90″ to 102″. Our cables are 96″. Because of the compound pulley arrangement with 3 pulleys and 4 lengths of cable leading to the glide-board (2 to the pulley and one to each handle), any difference in cable length is divided by 4 to calculate the difference in glide-board position due to different cable length. Therefore the largest difference in Glide-board position would be 1-1/2″ and since there is extra travel on the rails, this difference is not noticeable.
Our upgraded cable with stops comes with a tool to separate the old cable from the handles and fits the Total Gym®s with the plastic handles (handles not included) . You may wish to consider upgrading to our premium stainless steel handles with cable for metal handles (you will also need the new cable for metal handles) since the plastic handles may not last forever.
Includes: Cable with stops and removal tool
**Handles not included**
Note: if you have a commercial (not retail) Total Gym®, call before ordering a cable to make sure your handles are compatible.
