Hardware

• All 3/8" socket head cap screws shall be of grade 8 (or equivalent). All bolts shall be either 

chromed or zinc plated for additional corrosion resistance.

Weight Stack Guards

• All weight stacks shall be guarded on the backside to prevent bystanders from inadvertent 

contact with the weight stack during use.

Cushion/Upholstery

• A superior grade of Naugahyde from Gencorp (or equivalent) shall be used on all pad 

covers and wear covers.

• The color shall be sulfide stain resistant.
• All edges shall be stitched to eliminate any folds in the material that would limit durability.
• Cushions come with replaceable slipcovers on all high use areas, reducing maintenance 

expense by not having to replace the entire cushion.

• Cushion foam consists of a combination of high and medium density closed-cell Omalon 

polyurethane, for durability and comfort.

Adjustments

• Recessed high contrast Lexan decal for all seat and pad adjustments for maximum 

readability.

Instructional Placard

• Shall provide step-by-step instructions and a picture to illustrate use, visible from the 

exercise position. 

• Placard shall indicate proper positioning, details muscles trained and clearly describe the 

correct use of machines.

Equipment Anchoring

• Each machine shall be equipped with a provision for anchoring it to the floor.
