Are you tired of the gap between seat and back pad throwing off your arch or your positioning? If yes, the PRO Zero-Gap Utility Bench is built with you in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes training with the PRO Zero-Gap Bench more efficient\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat and incline bench in one — 7 back pad angle positions for precise adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean bench press setup: complete closure between back pad and seat cushion, no gap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid construction rated to 500 kg, suitable for daily commercial use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBased on IPF specifications for flat benches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 back pad positions (0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 80°), 3 seat positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrippy, high-density pad surface — stays in place during heavy sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal, knurled handle for a good grip when moving the bench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for dedicated powerlifters, strength athletes, and commercial and home gyms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the PRO Zero-Gap Bench you can run classic flat bench press sessions and use it as an incline bench across 7 angles. The linkage system closes the gap between seat and back pad completely, so there's nothing digging into your back or disrupting your setup mid-set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid base and wide floor contact area keep the bench stable at 56 kg.

The hinged connection creates an overlapping join between back pad and seat, which is what eliminates the gap. The result is a stable, flush feel across all positions. The grippy pad surface adds to this — it holds your position without needing to be adjusted between sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero gap between backrest and seat pad via hinge linkage system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrippy, high-density non-slip pad surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 back pad positions: 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 80°\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 seat positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal, knurled handle at foot end \u0026amp; wheels at head end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-hole adjustment system: 17 mm diameter holes, 25 mm spacing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame Material: 3 mm Steel, black powder coated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 56 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal L × W × H: 143.4 cm × 50 cm × 45 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack pad (L × W × H): 88.8 cm × 30 cm × 6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeat pad (L × W × H): 40 cm × 30 cm × 6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax. suggested load: 500 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e💡 Shipped in a crate – arrives fully assembled and ready to use!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this bench suitable for powerlifting competition prep?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes.
