Key Features & Specifications
Shaft Diameter: 25mm (Standard for women's bars; optimized for smaller hands).
Weight: 15KG (33 lbs).
Tensile Strength: 190,000 PSI (High-grade US steel providing optimal whip and rigidity).
Shaft Finish: Custom Cerakote—A polymer-ceramic composite coating known for its 100X superior corrosion resistance compared to standard zinc.
Branding: Features the official Arnold’s Pump Club logo and exclusive "Stay Hungry" or community-specific graphics on the shaft.
Sleeve Finish: Proprietary Matte Black or Chrome (Standard for Cerakote editions).
Knurling: Dual knurl marks (Olympic and Powerlifting) with a "middle of the road" feel—firm enough for heavy pulls but non-abrasive for high-rep training.
Center Knurl: No. Saves the skin on the neck during high-rep cleans and front squats.
Rotation System: Quality bronze bushings for a smooth, reliable, and consistent spin.
Durability Rating: F6-R (Highly resistant to fatigue; treated with patented Rogue Work Hardening).
Origin: Made in the USA.
Performance Benefits
Versatile Design: Specifically engineered to transition seamlessly between Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, and general metabolic conditioning (CrossFit®).
Corrosion Protection: The Cerakote finish is ideal for home and garage gyms, where humidity can lead to rust on bare or zinc-plated bars.
Quiet & Stable: Tight connection tolerances and precision-machined bushings significantly reduce noise and unwanted sleeve "wobble" (axial and radial endfloat).
Maintenance and Care
While Cerakote is extremely durable, proper maintenance is required to keep the knurl "sticky" and the bushings spinning smoothly.
Regular Brushing: Use a synthetic (nylon) bristle brush to clear chalk and debris from the knurling after use. Important: NEVER use a steel brush, as it will scratch and damage the Cerakote finish.
Cleaning: Apply a light coat of 3-in-1 oil or high-quality machine oil to the knurl periodically, brush it in, and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Bushing Care: If the rotation begins to feel sluggish, a drop of 3-in-1 oil can be added to the sleeve-to-shaft interface.
Racking: To preserve the custom finish, Rogue recommends using J-cups with plastic liners rather than bare steel contact.
