Our IPF Spec, Stainless Steel Chewy Bar is the newest addition to our line of best in-class Power Lifting Olympic Barbells. Why Chewy? It’s our take on a more aggressive knurl, without chewing up your hands. We are paying homage to the powerlifting bars of the past, but adding our innovations and wealth of expertise.                                           This heavy-duty bar is constructed with an American made stainless-steel shaft that has been precision machined with a 20 Teeth Per Inch (TPI) aggressive knurl. The sleeves are hard chrome plated and machined to our smooth and jewelry-like precision standards. Of course, the sleeve also features our patented and signature recessed TIG weld to finish the look. We also use stainless steel internal snap rings and composite bushings to keep it quiet, tight and long-lasting. Bottom line is, just looking at this bar will inspire you to train, and once you feel our level of craftsmanship you won’t want to stop.
