QLI Adjustable Hack Squat Machine - Plate Loaded

QLI Adjustable Hack Squat Machine — Plate Loaded

45° Hack Squat | Multi-Angle Footplate | Adjustable Backrest | Low Safety Stops | 350kg Capacity | Model QAHS100

The QLI Adjustable Hack Squat Machine QAHS100 is built for precise, heavy leg training. A 45° incline keeps the body stable under load while reducing strain on the spine and knees, and the smooth-glide carriage delivers steady, controlled resistance through the full squat.

The multi-angle footplate and adjustable backrest let every user find their best position — set the backrest for more hip flexion and deeper squats with stronger glute activation, or adjust the stance to bias the quads. Contoured shoulder pads ease pressure on the neck and upper back, a low safety stop system sets the range of motion, and adjustable resistance bands add smooth extra tension. A seamless 3mm steel frame with scratch-resistant powder coat is built for heavy-duty gym use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What muscles does it train?
The quads are the main movers, with the glutes, hamstrings and adductors working alongside. Adjusting the backrest and footplate shifts the emphasis — more hip flexion brings the glutes in harder.

What are the resistance bands for?
The adjustable bands add smooth extra tension to the movement, reducing joint load and letting users fine-tune the resistance safely.

Is it Olympic plate compatible?
Yes — load Olympic plates straight onto the weight horns.

What's the weight capacity?
QLI rates the QAHS100 to 350kg.

How much floor space do I need?
The footprint is 2555 × 1510mm and it stands 1436mm high. At 216kg it's a professional install — check access for stairs, lifts and doorways first, and our technician team can advise on delivery and positioning.

Can I order it in other colours?
The QAHS100 is supplied in the black frame and red carriage shown. QLI offers custom frame and upholstery colours on full container orders made at its factory — contact us if you're planning a large fit-out.

Does the price include GST?
Yes — all prices on our site include GST, and businesses receive a tax invoice to claim the GST credit.
