FITEK Pulley Ratio Converter: Unlock the True Weight
Stop lifting half the weight. If you train on a standard Functional Trainer, you are likely using a 2:1 pulley ratio, meaning a 100kg weight stack only provides 50kg of actual resistance. While great for fluid functional movements, it is often not enough for strong lifters performing heavy lat pulldowns or seated rows. The FITEK Pulley Ratio Converter solves this problem instantly.
By attaching this heavy-duty converter, you instantly alter your machine’s mechanical advantage from a 2:1 ratio to a solid 1:1 ratio. Consider it the ultimate instant upgrade for your existing cable machine. No complex installation or permanent modification is required. Simply integrate the converter into your cable setup via standard carabiners to finally feel the uncompromising tension of a 1:1 pull, transforming your versatile cable machine into a dedicated heavy-lifting station.
Simple Cable Integration: Easily connect the converter to your top pulley using the included extension chain attached directly to the unit.
Fully Adjustable Height: Smoothly slide the carriage up or down your uprights to perfectly match the pulling angle of any specific exercise.

Elite Engineering Details
- The 1:1 Advantage: Instantly doubles the resistance of your current stack. If you pin 60kg, you pull exactly 60kg. This is essential for achieving true progressive overload on heavy compound back exercises.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: Built from premium commercial-grade steel. It is meticulously engineered to safely handle the extreme tension of maxed-out weight stacks without bending or failing.
- Cost-Effective Upgrade: Instead of spending thousands on a standalone 1:1 lat pulldown machine, this single attachment maximizes the power of the equipment you already own.
- Smooth Performance: Designed to maintain the fluid, frictionless feel of your cable system, ensuring your heavy reps are brutal on the muscles, but smooth on the joints.
