Rogue Olympic Weightlifting Bar – Stainless Steel

Rogue Olympic Weightlifting Bar – Stainless Steel

Combining a stainless steel, 200,000 PSI tensile strength shaft with industrial hard chrome sleeves and quality needle bearings, this version of the Rogue Olympic Weightlifting Bar ranks among the best in the industry for feel, durability, and performance. Each 20KG bar is machined and assembled in Columbus, OH, and includes an exclusive Rogue knurl pattern that’s precision-cut for a firm grip without the sharpness or abrasiveness of many import bars.

Stainless steel is known for its unmatched oxidation resistance, but not all types produce the same level of performance. Rogue spent months researching and testing high strength stainless steel alloys, culminating in the creation of the world-record setting “Elephant Bar” used at the 2016 Arnold Strongman Classic. This bar handled one of the greatest loads in history due to the length of the shaft and sleeves as well as the use of 1,000LB of 2″ thick steel plates. That very same steel went into making our 28MM Stainless Steel Olympic Bar, and it’s a difference you can instantly feel.

Note on Stainless Steel: Barbells made from raw steel are not plated and therefore marks from the machining process may be visible.

Now Available with Optional Black Cerakote Branding:
Customers can now choose between the standard Stainless Steel shaft (with no finish) or a Stainless Steel shaft with a black Cerakote finish on the center portion between the knurling. Cerakote is a highly durable finish in its own right, first popularized in the gun industry, and it enables a wide range of custom colorways and branding options. In this case, we’ve created a photo-negative effect, as the un-coated Rogue logo is branded inside the black Cerakote finish.

Rogue also offers the Olympic Weightlifting Bar in a Bright Zinc finish and a Bright Zinc 15KG Olympic Weighlifting Women’s Bar.
