Why are Medx Machines Superior?

2-pound weights: Weights can be increased 2 pounds at a time, simply by inserting a pin.

Patented Compound Weight Stack: Base plates of 20 pounds each combine with the upper stack of nine 2-pound plates to accommodate both gradual increases and-depending on the exercise-up to 1,200 pounds of total resistance.

Safer Stroke: Every element of the machine drive train is designed to achieve vertical weight stack movement of only one foot on a full-range repetition; about half of what other equipment produces. Reducing inertia enhances safety.

Reduced User Strain: The unique design of MedX equipment places the weight stack approximately 18 inches off the ground, reducing or eliminating the need to bend down to pin the resistance.

Low-Friction Function: By eliminating friction-inducing weight stack guide rods, lowering inertia by shortening weight stack vertical travel to one foot, and using ball bearings throughout the machine, repetitions on MedX equipment have a smoothness that can’t be matched.

Low-Maintenance Ball Bearings: MedX equipment uses only high-precision sealed or shielded anti-friction ball bearings that require grease injections only about once per year.

High-Grade Upholstery: MedX upholstery is made from GenCorp’s Boltaflex fabric with a PreFixx protective finish. This easy-care, bacteria-resistant fabric meets Federal flammability specifications and Life Safety Code Standards while providing the utmost in user comfort and body support.

Quality Materials: All materials used meet the standards of the American Society of Testing and Materials.

Painted Heavy-Gauge Steel: MedX products are made with heavy-gauge cold-rolled steel and painted with chip- and scratch-resistant Polane® Polyurethane Enamel coatings from Sherwin Williams.
