The Ohio Bar

The Ohio Bar is a true multi-purpose bar. With a 28.5mm shaft diameter and dual knurl marks, it bridges the gap between the rigidity needed for heavy squats and the whip required for dynamic Olympic movements.

Cerakote is significantly more corrosion-resistant than bare steel or standard chrome, making it an excellent choice if your gym is in a garage or a humid environment. It provides a distinct, matte feel that many lifters prefer for its grip.

Yes, the bronze bushings are designed to provide a smooth, consistent spin that is ideal for Olympic lifting. While they don't spin as freely as needle bearings, they are more durable and require less maintenance for daily, high-volume training.

This rating indicates the bar's durability and resistance to permanent deformation under heavy loads. At 190,000 PSI, this bar is built to withstand rigorous, heavy-duty training without bending or snapping over time.

The knurling is refined to be secure without being overly abrasive. It provides a firm, comfortable grip that allows you to maintain control during heavy lifts without tearing up your hands during high-repetition sets.

Yes, the Ohio Bar is designed to fit all standard power racks and squat stands. The sleeve length and spacing are compatible with standard Olympic plates and rack uprights.
