Description Raising the bar. These barbells were over 10 years in the making – the fusion of customer insights, rigorous testing, thousands of reps by different types of athletes, and decades of experience in both lifting and designing quality, innovative gym equipment. The Delta™ basic bar is a high-quality, powerlifting/mixed-use barbell for lifters looking for great value and versatility. With slower-rotating, strength-focused, brass bushing sleeves, the Delta™ bar is perfect for powerlifting. But dual knurl markings (both International Powerlifting Federation and International Weightlifting Federation) make the bar versatile enough for whatever kind of lifting you’re doing. Features BRIGHT CHROME FINISH: Bright chrome helps protect the bar from the elements and rust, while creating an aesthetic, shiny finish. BUSHING SLEEVES: Slower-rotating bushing sleeves are more efficient for strength-focused movements, like powerlifting lifts. VOLCANO KNURLING: Medium-depth, volcano-style knurling provides good grip without tearing up your hands. CENTER KNURL: Center knurling helps keep the barbell in place on your back during squats. DUAL KNURL MARKINGS: Dual knurl markings (IWF and IPF) help you determine even hand placement on the barbell. SMOOTH SLEEVES: Smooth sleeves allow for easy loading and unloading of weight on the barbell.
