Overview
A 500 lb rated hex trap bar with two sets of knurled handles at different heights, built for deadlift-pattern lifts like deadlifts, shrugs and farmer carries.
The dual handle height is the functional detail: flipping the bar switches between two 25mm knurled grip heights, changing the lift's leverage without needing a second bar. At 44 lbs the bar itself is heavier than a standard Olympic barbell, worth accounting for when calculating total loaded weight.
- 500 lb weight rating
- Dual 25mm knurled handle heights
- 56 inch overall length, 24.5 inch handle spread
- 44 lbs bar weight
Who it's for
Fits lifters building a home or garage gym around deadlift-pattern work who want the reduced lower-back strain a hex bar offers over a straight bar. Not needed by anyone who only trains straight-bar deadlifts or lacks the plate storage a 56 inch bar requires.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Two handle heights from one bar
- Rated to 500 lbs
- Neutral grip reduces wrist and shoulder strain
- 9.75 inch loadable sleeve length per side
- No published reviews to confirm long-term durability
- 44 lb bar weight adds to total loaded weight calculations
Performance notes
The hex shape keeps the lifter's center of mass inside the frame during deadlifts and carries, reducing the forward lean that loads the lower back on a straight bar. The two knurled handle heights let a lifter change grip position by flipping the bar rather than switching equipment.
