Built to withstand the absolute highest-intensity training sessions, this high-performance bar boasts an extraordinary 1,500 lb static load capacity, satisfying the strict requirements of top-level athletes.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\nAt the heart of the Apex Barbell is a shaft constructed from high-strength alloy stainless steel. Precision-drawn to a tournament-standard 28 mm diameter, this elite steel delivers a remarkable 190,000 PSI tensile strength. This chemical composition provides the perfect whip profile—offering optimal kinetic energy storage and return during heavy clean \u0026amp; jerks, snatches, and squats, while returning perfectly straight every single time.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\nThe shaft is equipped with our signature 1.55 aggressive volcanic knurling pattern divided into 5 carefully marked knurl sections. This precise, micro-pyramid texture bites firmly into your hands for maximum pulling friction without causing premature skin tearing. To guarantee smooth, low-friction rotation under maximal load, the sleeve assembly utilizes a hybrid rotational system featuring 10 precision needle bearings paired with dual self-lubricating bronze bushings, protecting your wrists from damaging rotational forces.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\nThe sleeves are completed with an ultra-durable hard chrome finish that provides superior wear resistance against repeated loading of Olympic plates. Shipping in a heavy-duty reinforced barbell tube to guarantee pristine delivery, the Apex Series Competition Barbell stands as the absolute pinnacle of premium, heavy-duty engineering for your facility or home gym.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5 style=\"margin-top: 30px;\"\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eOlympic Competition Barbell\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eApex Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e7 ft (2200 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e20 kg ±20 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e28 mm ±0.1 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e50.00 mm ±0.01 mm (Compatible with standard Olympic Plates)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eHigh-Strength Alloy Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSleeve Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eHard Chrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTensile Strength\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e190,000 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKnurling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e1.55 Aggressive Volcanic Knurling (5 Knurl Sections)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRotation System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e10 Precision Needle Bearings + Dual Bronze Bushings\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStatic Load Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e1,500 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eHeavy-Duty Reinforced Barbell Tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fitness Canada™","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43659581784161,"sku":"FC-APEX-COM-7FT20KG","price":299.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/6945\/6481\/files\/apex-series-competition-barbell-7ft-20kg-1500lb-capacity-190k-psi.jpg?v=1784073068","url":"https:\/\/www.fitnesscanada.com\/products\/apex-series-competition-barbell-7ft-20kg-1500lb-capacity-190k-psi","provider":"Fitness Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
