Description
The Bodytone BT57016 straight bar is a 50 cm cable attachment for arm work: pronated triceps pressdowns at the high pulley, supinated curls at the low pulley, with a non-slip grip along its full length. Price: 36 EUR excluding VAT.
The arm-day essential of the cable park
Two of the most-performed exercises in any commercial gym run through a straight bar: the cable curl and the triceps pressdown. The BT57016 covers both with one attachment — flip the grip from supinated to pronated and the same 50 cm bar moves from biceps to triceps, which is exactly why it never stays long on the storage rack.
50 cm: wide enough to vary, short enough to control
The length allows genuine grip-width variation — narrow for long-head triceps emphasis, wider to shift the curl stimulus — while staying compact enough for strict, elbows-pinned execution. The chromed steel bar takes years of carabiner clipping, and the anti-slip coating over the full length means every grip width stays secure, even late in a high-repetition arm session.
Universal fit, simple logistics
The bar clips to any standard pulley carabiner: crossovers, adjustable pulleys, dedicated arm stations, all brands. In a complete attachment park it complements the V handles, triceps rope and single-hand grips — the set that turns one cable column into a full upper-body plateau.

Beyond the two classics
Once curls and pressdowns are covered, the straight bar keeps working. Cable upright rows load the traps with constant tension through the whole arc. Front raises from the low pulley keep the delts under load at the bottom of the movement, where dumbbells go slack. Straight-arm pulldowns turn the bar into a lat isolation tool, and cable pull-throughs use it for hip-hinge teaching. That breadth is why the 50 cm bar is usually the first attachment a facility duplicates: it serves arm day, shoulder day and back day from the same hook, and a spare keeps every station covered while one is in use.
Frequently asked questions
Straight bar or EZ-profile for cable curls?
The straight bar keeps a full supinated grip that maximises biceps recruitment; members with sensitive wrists may prefer an angled profile. Most facilities stock both and let comfort decide.
Which exercises beyond curls and pressdowns?
Upright rows, front raises and pull-throughs all work from the same bar, making it one of the most versatile single attachments on the column.
Is volume pricing available for multi-station clubs?
Yes — attachment parks with duplicates for every cable station are quoted with quantity discounts, free of charge within 24 hours.
