The following companies are recognized as recommended USPA equipment companies for 2024. On this page, you’ll find a sidebar that allows you to filter these companies based on the type of equipment you’re looking for, making it easier to find what you need.
IMPORTANT: Please be advised that being listed as a recommended supplier does not guarantee that all equipment from these companies will meet the necessary criteria during gear checks at USPA-sanctioned events. It’s your responsibility to make sure any equipment you purchase meets the USPA Rulebook specifications. We advise checking your equipment’s compliance to prevent issues during gear checks.
If your company specializes in lifting gear and you’re interested in being featured on the USPA Recommended Equipment list, we invite you to apply using the link below:
As of January 1, 2024,we will no longer have an Approved Equipment List.
The process has been altered for the 2024 listing, and vendors are no longer required to submit gear items for approval. Instead, vendors simply apply to be part of the Recommended Equipment List, pay the associated fee, and do not have to undergo the previous gear inspection and approval process.
However, it’s crucial that vendors ensure their gear complies with USPA standards and guidelines as specified in the USPA Rulebook. This maintains the integrity and reliability of the Recommended List for our powerlifting community.
Simply click on the “Apply Now” button on the top of this page. There you’ll find the USPA Recommended Equipment List Application Form which you can fill out.
Following the form submission, you’ll be prompted to pay the $500 annual fee. Upon successful payment, your company will be listed on the USPA Recommended Equipment List for the year 2024.
Vendors who wish to have their gear remain on the Recommended Equipment List for the subsequent year (2025 and beyond) will need to renew their listing annually. It’s crucial to note that listings will not be automatically renewed. Instead, vendors will receive a reminder email, prompting them to renew their listing by submitting a new application and paying the annual fee. Vendors who do not renew their listings will be removed from the Recommended Equipment List after their one-year term expires.
