Rank #3 in Best Parallettes 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Load Claims That Fail the Spec Table
RHINOSPORT Parallettes Bars, 1.5 mm Carbon Steel, 300 kg
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The RHINOSPORT D6-Black is a pair of 19.6-inch parallettes — the low bars used for push-ups, dips, L-sits and handstand practice — selling at £21.99 and rated 4.6 out of 5 from 582 reviews. It takes third place in this guide, and it earns the spot for an unusual reason: it is the listing here where the load figure actually survives its own spec table.
The bullet quotes 300KG/661lbs. The Maximum Weight Recommendation row says 300 Kilograms. Those two agree, and 300 kg converts to roughly 661 lbs, so the arithmetic holds — worth stating plainly, because it does not hold for every set of bars in this guide. The weaker point sits in the fifth bullet: a free replacement service, offered alongside a Warranty Type field that reads No warranty. As listed, the D6-Black weighs 3.95 kg, which is the weight of the bars themselves, not the load they are rated to carry. Every figure on this page comes from the Amazon listing as published, not from testing we carried out.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“These dip bars are well made with thick steel tubing and very sturdy with no wobble or movement even with my 110 kg of body weight. The height of bars mean I can perform press ups with my feet elevated without my head hitting the floor. All in all, they are a good addition to my home gym.”
Verified purchase“Really solid and works exactly as planned. No damage after several months of using them. They were easy to put together. Good value for money.”

Questions people ask
Does the RHINOSPORT D6 really carry 300 kg?
The bullet says 300KG/661lbs and the Maximum Weight Recommendation row says 300 Kilograms, so on this listing the two figures agree with each other.
How heavy are the bars themselves?
The listing gives an item weight of 3.95 kg. That is the weight of the equipment you lift out of the box, not the load it is rated to take.
Is there a warranty on the RHINOSPORT D6-Black?
The Warranty Type field says No warranty. The fifth bullet offers a free replacement service, which is not described as a warranty anywhere in the spec table.
How wide is the stance on these parallettes?
The listing gives a 19.6 in stance and item dimensions of 49.8 x 25.9 x 25.9 cm, and describes them as wider than standard 17 in bars.
Do the bars need tools to assemble?
No. The listing describes tool-free assembly — insert the pins and tighten the hand knobs — and says they pack flat for storage under a bed or in a cupboard.
What are the RHINOSPORT D6 bars made of?
The Material field says Carbon Steel, while the bullet specifies 1.5mm reinforced carbon steel. The listing states the thickness only in the bullet, not in the spec table.
