What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent: the specifications call the material Aluminum, while the feature copy describes durable steel. The bar is listed at 35 pounds, while customer feedback reports disagreement about whether it is the standard 45 pounds. The listed dimensions are shown exactly as supplied and are not reconciled with the 7-foot title. Confirm the selected bar’s material, actual weight and dimensions if those details matter to your setup.

Frequently asked questions

What plates does this bar fit?

The listing says its Olympic sleeves are compatible with standard 2-inch Olympic plates.
