Sports equipment – Fitness equipment

Healthy through fitness

Modern gym interiors featuring fitness equipment

Fitness equipment is often used for many hours at a time. This means that different users, body weights and levels of exertion all place demands on the same equipment and components.

For the parts used, this means they are subjected to regular and varied stresses. It is therefore important to select components that are suitable for the specific design and application.
