Cap Barbell CAP Barbell 6-Foot Straight Bar with Threaded Ends

An absolute necessity for any home gym, the CAP 6-Foot Bar with Threaded Ends opens up a wide range of weightlifting options. Designed to fit weight plates with a 1" diameter hole, the CAP barbell bar fits most standard weight-lifting benches. This straight bar allows you to bench press if you have a weight-lifting bench, or use it alone for dead lifts, arm curls, military presses, squats and more. If you can't get to the gym or don't want to bother with memberships, the CAP 6-Foot Bar allows you to work out within the comfort of your own home. The CAP barbell bar is solid steel, so you know it will keep up with you. The threaded ends and included collars safely secure weights to the bar for your convenience and ease of mind. A chrome finish adds a little bit of polish to your workout area.

Review 1 for CAP Barbell 6-Foot Straight Bar with Threaded Ends

not for heavy weight

This is a good cheap bar if you are new to lifting and not very strong. I would not suggest this bar to anyone looking to lift heavy weight or do serious lifting with it. Case in point: I am a 32 yr old woman and I managed to bend this bar from having too much weight on it. DO NOT USE THIS BAR FOR BENT OVER LONG BAR ROWS.

250# capacity I'll never reach, but the feel of a solid bar is something you just have to experience to appreciate. I like the look of chrome, too. The spin locks are so much easier to manage than spring locks. I'm a happy camper.

It's a barbell. No complaints.

Good price. Seemingly good quality so far. I liked that it came with the collars, which some bars do not for some insane reason. My older barbell had a little more weight to it, which I prefered, but I wouldn't could that against this product.

I feel more secure with the threaded ends, than with a smooth barbell that you put those clips on to secure the weights from falling off. That was a big reason why I bought this. Another huge reason was because it was one inch. I see a lot of bars I'll be buying in the future that can hold my 1 inch weight plates on them.
