The Rogue 28.5mm Boneyard Bar is a special offering of the popular Rogue Ohio Bar and is crafted from unique components discarded during the manufacturing process. It features a stainless steel shaft with a chrome sleeve construction and a quality and attractive brushed stainless steel finish. The 28.5mm diameter is slightly thinner than the standard 28.9mm of the Ohio Bar, making it a great choice for athletes with smaller hands, who prefer the feel of a thinner shaft. With stainless steel, you'll never have to worry about rust or corrosion, and the bar exhibits a 200,000 psi tensile strength and a 215,000 psi yield, giving it incredible strength and durability. The shaft also features smooth, precision needle bearing spin, offering a firm and consistent grip and Olympic-level whip performance, as well as an aggressive knurling texture for maximum grip. This is a highly versatile bar, suitable for use in a variety of workouts, including Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, CrossFit and more. The zinc-plated, X-Large center knurl gives added control, and the five needle bearings and four bushing system, give great spin and lasting longevity. For athletes looking for an affordable bar with great performance, the Rogue 28.5mm Boneyard Bar is a great option. Crafted with care with attention to detail and quality components, this bar is a great choice for those on a budget.
