The Bulletproof Telescopic Tube is a quick-swap modular hub designed to eliminate the hassle of constantly disassembling your VTS setup when switching between attachments. Originally engineered for 360 Bearing Handles, it now accepts ISO Handles, Feather Bar, and any other straight handles or bars between 25mm and 30mm in diameter — all without moving the tube itself.
Instead of opening the barbell latch, removing hooks, swapping attachments, and rebuilding everything each time, you simply leave the tube and hook in place and slide attachments in and out. It's a cleaner, more efficient way to build a modular training setup.
One Hook, Multiple Attachments
Keep a single hook mounted on the tube and rotate compatible attachments through it. No need to buy or move hooks for every separate piece.
Telescoping Range Beyond Normal
Compatible handles can telescope much farther inward than they normally could, enabling extremely close grip positions for pressing, rows, and curls.
Leave the tube in place, leave the hook on, and swap attachments without turning every exercise change into a parts-removal ceremony.
The traditional approach to swapping attachments means opening the barbell latch, removing handles, swapping hooks, reinstalling the latch, and possibly moving hooks to new positions. The Telescopic Tube eliminates this inefficiency by staying permanently mounted with one hook set while you rotate attachments through it.
Faster Swaps
Slide attachments in and out without tearing apart your setup. No latch opening, no hook moving, no parts-removal ceremony.
Shared Hook Solution
One hook set stays on the tube. All compatible attachments use the same hook. Cuts cost, reduces clutter, and eliminates the shell game of moving hooks around.
Greater Telescoping Range
Standard ISO Handles plateau when they telescope inward because you run out of safe overlap in the latch. With this tube, compatible handles can move almost all the way in for ultra-close grip positions.
More Modular Setup Value
Even without 360 Bearing Handles, you gain a cleaner way to build versatility around your Feather Bar, ISO Handles, and other compatible attachments.
What you actually gain: faster attachment swaps, less latch opening and closing, less hook shuffling, and a cleaner, more efficient modular training setup.
- Multi-Handle Compatibility: Accepts 360 Bearing Handles, ISO Handles, Feather Bar, and any straight-handle pieces between 25mm and 30mm in diameter for maximum flexibility.
- Hand Lever Locking: Simple hand lever tightens inserted handles or bars securely in place without tools or complex adjustment steps.
- Shared Hook System: The knurled outer section holds a specific-size hook, allowing one hook set to remain on the tube while attachments rotate through it — reducing cost and clutter.
- Telescoping Extension: Enables compatible handles to move dramatically farther inward than they normally could, creating ultra-tight grip positions.
- Permanent Mount Option: Can remain in the barbell latch while you swap attachments in and out, eliminating repeated latch opening and closing.
The Telescopic Tube is designed to work with VTS systems and accepts any handle or bar with a diameter between 25mm and 30mm. It mounts via 1" holes on VTS equipment.
- Works with: 360 Bearing Handles, ISO Handles, Feather Bar, and other compatible straight handles or bars (25–30mm diameter)
- VTS Integration: Mounts to VTS barbell latches using standard 1" holes
- Hook Compatibility: Accepts the specific-size hook made for this tube's 38mm outer diameter
The Telescopic Tube requires handles or bars with straight designs that fit within the 25–30mm diameter range. It is not compatible with oversized, angled, or specialty grip attachments outside this sizing specification.
- Tube Outside Diameter: 38mm
- Tube Length: 9.25"
- Tube Weight: 1.4 lbs
- Hook Weight: 0.8 lbs
- Total Weight per Pair: Approximately 4.4 lbs (both tubes and hooks combined)
- Accepted Handle/Bar Diameter Range: 25mm to 30mm
- Locking Method: Hand lever
- Outer Finish: Knurled with shine finish
- Mounting: For use with 1" holes
This pair includes two complete telescopic tubes with hooks, engineered to telescope inward dramatically while maintaining secure attachment via hand lever. The compact 9.25" length keeps your setup modular and efficient.
Do I need 360 Bearing Handles to use the Telescopic Tube?
No. While it was originally designed for 360 Bearing Handles, the Telescopic Tube works equally well for faster swaps between your Feather Bar, ISO Handles, and any other compatible straight-handle pieces. It's a modular hub that improves any attachment-heavy VTS setup.
What handle and bar diameters does it accept?
The Telescopic Tube accepts any handle or bar with a diameter between 25mm and 30mm. If your attachment falls within that range and has a straight design, it will fit and lock down securely with the hand lever.
Why should I use one shared hook instead of mounting hooks on every attachment?
You absolutely can mount individual hooks on each attachment if you prefer. However, the shared hook approach costs less (one hook set instead of multiple), creates less clutter in your gym, and eliminates the annoying process of moving hooks around every time you swap attachments. It's efficiency with less fidgeting.
What makes the telescoping feature useful?
Standard ISO Handles and other attachments can only telescope inward so far before you lose safe overlap in the barbell latch. The Telescopic Tube lets compatible handles move dramatically farther inward — almost all the way until they touch — creating much tighter grip positions for pressing, rows, curls, and other exercises where closer grip matters.
How does it lock down attachments?
A hand lever tightens the inserted handle or bar in place. No tools, no complex steps — just insert your attachment and tighten the lever until it's secure.
Can the tube stay mounted while I swap attachments?
Yes. That's the entire point. The tube can remain in the barbell latch with the hook mounted on the outside. You simply slide one attachment out and the next one in without opening the latch or moving anything. It's the "one tube, faster swaps, more options, less nonsense" solution.
What is the outside diameter of the tube?
38mm. This sizing is matched to the specific hook made for the Telescopic Tube, ensuring a reliable fit and secure mounting on your VTS system.
