Overview

This is the 7 foot, 45 lb version of HANDBODE's Olympic barbell line, built from alloy steel with a hard chrome E-coat finish and a 2 inch sleeve diameter for standard Olympic plates. It's rated to a 1000 lb load capacity.

The sleeves run on two hybrid needle bearings and brass bushings per side, which is what lets plates spin freely during Olympic-style lifts like snatches and cleans as well as standard squats and presses. Knurling on the 28mm shaft carries both IWF and IPF markings for standardized hand placement.

Who it's for

Fits home gym owners setting up a squat rack or power rack who need a single bar for squats, deadlifts, bench, and Olympic lifts. Not the choice for anyone who specifically wants a shorter bar; HANDBODE sells 4, 5, and 6 foot versions separately for that.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out

Hybrid needle bearing plus bushing sleeves for smooth spin
Dual IWF and IPF knurl marks for consistent hand placement
Rated to a 1000 lb load capacity
Hard chrome finish for rust resistance

What to check first

Weight plates are not included
This listing covers only the 7 ft length; shorter bars are separate purchases

Performance notes

The needle bearings are what let the sleeves spin independently of the shaft during fast Olympic lifts, while the brass bushings handle the slower rotation of standard lifts like squats and bench press. The hard chrome E-coat finish is the layer doing the rust and crack resistance work on the shaft itself.
