Multi-Purpose Olympic Barbell – The Utility Bar

As a generalist bar, The Utility Bar is designed for people who don't adhere to a particular strength sport and just love an excellent bar.

With a 28.5mm diameter, it's just a tad thicker than an Olympic weightlifting bar (28mm diameter) and a smidge thinner than a powerlifting bar (29mm diameter). Brass bushings and no bearings make for a smooth rotation and an ultra-secure snap ring is used to keep it all together.

A medium-light knurl won't chew your hands up when power cleaning, but it's complemented with centre knurling for a better grip when squatting. Featuring both weightlifting and powerlifting marks, hand positioning is made easy for whatever movement you're doing that day. Lightly ribbed sleeves help keep your weight plates from shifting during your workouts.

Which version to choose?

• Black zinc: great protection, looks sharp, holds up well with minimal maintenance. 
• Cerakote (not available in all markets): military-grade polymer coating that’s far more resistant to humidity and corrosion. If you train in a garage or basement with moisture and temperature swings, it's worth the upgrade. (Also, fun color options.)

Got smaller hands? You'll love the 25mm shaft & 15kg weight of the Juno Bar - Women's Utility Barbell.

IMPORTANT: For cerakote-coated barbells, added care should be used to avoid abrasive metal-to-metal contact. Tight-fitting collars, weight plates, un-lined landmine attachments and j-cups, etc - these can potentially cut into or wear off the cerakote finish. Taking these extra precautions will preserve that beautiful rust-resistant finish for years to come!
