This STS lat pulldown machine is the York Barbell's Strength Training Series pulldown fitted with its heavier weight stack. It is built for team weight rooms, clubs, and strong home lifters who would otherwise run out of plates on a lighter stack, and it arrives with its lat bar and a locking leg hold-down.
The numbers that matter most:
| Attribute | Value |
|---|---|
| Weight stack | 300 lb |
| Dimensions | (L)53” x (W)30 1/4” x (H)90” |
| Lat bar width | 47 1/2” |
| Seat pad | 21.5″ x 12″ x 2.75″ |
| Cable rating | 4200 pound tensile strength |
Choose this heavier stack if your strongest users already pull near the top of a lighter stack for reps; save the difference with the 250 lb stack listing if no one is close to it.
Picture a high school weight room where linemen and distance runners share one pulldown. The runners never touch the bottom plates, but the linemen would hit the ceiling of a smaller stack within a season.
The details York built in and what they do for heavy pulling:
✅ Padded hold-down locks your thighs in place
✅ Bar ends angle for a natural wrist position
✅ Heavy-gauge STS frame for daily commercial use
✅ Accepts York attachments for more variations
✅ Pin selection sets each lifter's load fast.
If your heaviest lifters are outgrowing your current pulldown, order this York STS lat pulldown today, or compare our commercial lat pulldown machines.
York describes the machine as specialized in building back and arm muscles, with the lats doing most of the work on every pull.
Does a lat pulldown machine work for biceps? Yes, as a helper. The biceps bend your elbows during each pull, and an underhand, closer grip gives them a larger share of the load.
York Barbell publishes these details, and more of the York Barbell equipment we carry is on the brand page.

Use both lists to decide.
It suits you if you:
Skip it if you:
A 7-foot ceiling is lower than this frame, so measure the height where the machine will stand before you order.
The lat bar is wider than the frame, so leave open space on both sides for wide-grip pulls. Check for beams, ducts, and light fixtures that hang lower than the rest of the ceiling.
Pair the pulldown with the York STS Low Seated Row (300 lb), and both of your main back lifts share the same heavy stack and frame style.
York is not on our free-shipping brand list, and the machine ships by freight. Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase with a receipt or proof of purchase when they are working, undamaged, and in their original packaging; a damaged or incomplete return may earn only a partial refund. Expect a 25% restocking fee plus your own return shipping, and equipment used beyond testing can't come back. A cancellation before shipment costs 2.5%, as our shipping and returns policy sets out.
York publishes its warranty terms on its York warranty page. If anything fails after delivery, call us and we'll work through the claim with York.
It depends on the stack the maker fits. York builds this pulldown with two stack options, and this listing carries the heavier one, which gives strong lifters more room than the lighter version.
US machines are usually marked in pounds, and York lists this stack in pounds. If you program in kilograms, convert your target loads before your first session.
Set the seat, lock your thighs under the pad, take a grip just wider than your shoulders, and pull the bar to your upper chest. Our beginner lat pulldown setup guide walks through each step.
