Overview
A 45-pound, 28mm, 7-foot Olympic bar in this 1000LBS Blue version, built to the same 500/700/1000lb capacity rating and 2-inch plate fit as other bars in the line, distinguished by its color finish.
The model code points to a colored finish option rather than a different mechanical build; the spec sheet, capacity rating, and sleeve system match other bars sold under this listing family. Reviewers speak to the line generally and single out finish color as one reason they picked a specific version over a plain bar.
- 7ft, 28mm shaft, 45lb weight, colored finish
- 500/700/1000lb rated capacity
- Fits standard 2 inch Olympic plates
- Needle bearing and brass bushing sleeve rotation
Who it's for
Home lifters who want a bar with some visual distinction over a plain zinc or black finish, alongside the same bearing sleeve performance as the standard version. Skip if finish color doesn't matter and you just want the lowest priced option in the line.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who chose a colored finish mention it as a deliberate reason for picking this bar over a plain one, alongside the same praise the line gets generally for bearing sleeve spin and grippy knurling. Scratching on the finish over time is the one wear complaint reviewers raise.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Colored cerakote-style finish, called out by reviewers
- Sleeves spin smoothly on bearings under load
- Knurling described as grippy but not abrasive
- Rated to 1000lb capacity per the listing
- Surface can pick up scratches with use
- Costs more than a basic starter bar
Performance notes
Sleeve rotation runs on needle bearings and a brass bushing per sleeve, the same setup a reviewer confirmed by taking one of these bars apart, which is what lets the sleeves keep spinning freely even as plates get loaded on for deadlifts.
