Overview
A 4 foot straight Olympic barbell rated to 350 lbs, with 2 inch rotating sleeves for standard Olympic plates and diamond knurling for grip.
The seller's description text references an EZ curl bar, but the attribute list and buyer reviews confirm this is a straight bar, not curved. At 4 feet it is shorter than a full 7 foot Olympic bar, sized for smaller home gym spaces or lighter compound and isolation work rather than heavy back squats.
- 350 lb rated capacity
- 4 foot length
- 2 inch rotating sleeves
- 2 spring collars and 2 quick-release collars included
Who it's for
Home gym owners with limited space who want a shorter Olympic bar for presses, rows and curls rather than a full-length competition bar.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who bought it for home gyms called it well made, sturdy and priced well for what it is, several using it for curls and overhead presses in tight spaces where a full-size bar would not fit. One reviewer weighed the 4 foot bar at about 13 lbs on a home scale. Feedback skews toward light use though: one buyer explicitly noted they have only lifted up to 50 lbs total on it so far, so the reviews speak more to fit and finish than to heavy load performance.

Performance notes
The 2 inch rotating sleeves reduce wrist torque during lifts, and the diamond knurl grip is meant to hold under pressing and pulling loads; one reviewer measured the 4ft bar at about 13 lbs on a home scale.
