Features & Highlights
-
Hard Chrome Finish – Chrome is a cost-efficient plating that does a good-but-not-great job at fighting off oxidation. You won’t get the same feel as you would with a non-plated finish like bare steel, stainless steel, etc… but you get a nice blend of feel and rust resistance without the larger price tag. This bar has a very refined knurl as-is, and it leans on the aggressive side.
-
IWF Certified – This bar has been approved by the International Weightlifting Federation to be used in competition. The IWF emblem is embossed in yellow on the shaft.
-
25mm Shaft – The 25mm shaft will generate great whip and it’s consistent with female Olympic Weightlifting standards.
-
Tensile Strength – This bar offers a 215,000 PSI tensile strength, which stacks up well against the competition.
-
Dust-proof Seal – This bar includes a dust-proof seal in the sleeve that prevents dust and other debris from entering the mechanics of the bar, ensuring optimal performance.
-
Smooth Sleeves – The smooth sleeves will generally create less noise when loading/unloading plates compared to a grooved sleeve.
-
Swedish Made – This bar is made in Sweden using some of the finest steel in the industry.
