Bars & Weights

We have a huge range of barbells to suit different budgets and training goals. Our standard barbell is a great all round bar that is perfect for squats, deadlifts and bench press. It has a weight rating of 350kg, and a durable hard chrome coating. You can continue to use this bar even as you progress to higher weights. Our competition barbells have additional bearings to allow the barbell sleeves to spin more freely. This helps reduce the risk of injury to your wrist and elbow when performing Olympic lifts such as the clean and jerk.  Our powerlifting barbell is weight rated to 540 kg and has more aggressive knurling. All our Olympic barbell set for sale allows Olympic barbell plates to fit snugly onto the bar. 

Olympic weight plates

We have a range of different Olympic weight plates available. Our bumper plates have been rigorously tested by coaches and athletes and are built to last. They are made from high grade rubber and are designed for low bounce and high durability. This allows you to drop your weights when performing a deadlift or Olympic lift without fear of breaking your equipment. Our Olympic iron plates are the most cost effective way to set up your home or commercial facility, and are perfect for strength training and powerlifting.

FAQs

How much weight can an Olympic bar handle?

Our Standard Olympic barbells can hold up to 350kg, while our competition and power barbells can hold up to 540kg.

How do you know if an Olympic bar is good?

Look at factors like the material, spin, knurling, and finish to determine the quality of an Olympic barbell and weights for sale. A good Olympic bar should be made from high-grade steel with a tensile strength rating of at least 190,000 PSI. This will ensure that it is strong and durable enough to handle heavy weights without bending or breaking. Additionally, a suitable coating should be used on the bar to avoid the finish chipping off or rusting.
