It’s back! First introduced in 2012, our Excalibur bar set the mark for a high quality barbell at an affordable price. The updated version includes more aggressive knurl for extra grip in max effort lifts, and a 28.5mm diameter for increased usefulness in powerlifting movements.
Our Excalibur barbell is the best cross training bar we offer. Whether you are just starting to build your own home gym, or outfitting an affiliate and using it for Cross Training and HIIT workouts, the Excalibur is a barbell that you will be sure to love.
Key Features:
Strength & Whip: 28.5mm diameter is great for a mixture of Olympic Weightlifting and Powerlifting training. 215k tensile strength, 205k yield, with a 1500 lb rating, the Excalibur is made with an extremely high quality steel alloy designed for decades of use.
Coating:Hard chrome is tried and true on many of the best barbells in the world. Very rust resistant.
Spin: Butter smooth bushings with a patented design that allows for virtually silent rotation and zero side-to-side sleeve movement.
Knurl: With a medium/deep depth knurling, it has plenty of knurl for your heavy lifts, but not a shark tooth knurl that rips up your hands for higher rep workouts.
