Categories: Upper Body AttachmentsProduct Summary
The Socket Pull-Up Curl Bar features the same 28.5MM cambered steel, extended knurling, and Black E-Coat finish as the Rogue Curl Bar. To adapt the design into a pull-up format, we essentially cut off the sleeves and added threaded holes to fix the bar to the provided mounting sockets, enabling easy installation on an existing rig or rack. This particular version is specifically built to fit a 43″ space in a 3×3″ Monster Series unit.Designed and manufactured in Columbus, Ohio, the Socket Pull-Up Curl Bar ships standard with (2) MG Black mounting sockets and (4) bright zinc bolt assemblies measuring 1″ x 4.75″. Socket mounting holes are 6″ on center. The grip-friendly knurl pattern matches that of our flagship Ohio Bar, and it extends to the inside portion of the bar for athletes who want to perform close grip as well as wide grip pull-ups.Compared to a traditional straight pull-up bar, a curved or cambered bar can provide a useful change-up for experienced, beginner, and rehabbing athletes, alike. This design helps reduce strain on the wrists during high-rep workouts, and with the knurling on the Socket Pull-Up Curl Bar extending to the inside portion of the bar, athletes can more easily work on their close grip pull-ups, as well. The non-abrasive knurl pattern itself is borrowed from our Ohio Bar–battle tested for years at the highest levels of competition.The shaft of the Pull-Up Curl Bar is chrome plated and finished with a black “E-coat”–the first pull-up bar we’ve produced with this unique finish. E-coating is an electrically-applied paint coating initially developed for the automotive industry due to its superior coverage, adhesion, and corrosion resistance. E-coating creates a super even finish without dripping, pooling or gaps. It’s got cosmetic appeal, but is also consistently tough, uniform, and chip resistant.The Monster Socket Pull-Up Curl Bar is precision-formed in the USA, using quality steel and state-of-the-art machinery at our Columbus, OH plant. The diameter of the bar is 28.5MM, and the total weight of the bar sockets is 17LB. Every pull-up bar is carefully inspected and tested for quality before it leaves our factory floor.This version of the Socket Pull-Up Curl Bar is compatible with any 43″ space on an Rogue Monster Series rack or rig, and is equipped with a pair of durable mounting sockets to insure its stability after installation. Two button-head screws lock the bar into the sockets to prevent spinning (a 7/32” allen wrench is required to tighten), and all needed hardware is provided and finished in Bright Zinc.
