Description
When You Want to Take Your Grip Strength to the Next Level
The Axle Bar is for everyone who wants more than standard training. The 50 mm grip diameter forces your hands to apply significantly more force – your hand doesn't close completely around the bar. The result: massive grip strength after just a few weeks of training. Add to that the fixed sleeves without rotation. Unlike Olympic bars, the plates don't rotate here – you have to stabilize more on every lift. For deadlifts, presses, rows and strongman movements, this creates completely different training stimuli.
Built Solid for Daily Box Use
The Axle Bar weighs 20 kg, is 213 cm long and has 39 cm sleeves per side – enough room for heavy weights. The black powder coating protects against sweat and corrosion. No frills, no knurling – just a solid bar that lasts. Tip: Use good collars to keep the plates securely fixed on the rigid sleeves. The Axle Bar is perfect for strongman training, grip-focused workouts or as a change from your regular barbell.

Customer reviews
The Axle Bar is my secret tip for anyone hitting plateaus on deadlifts or pulls. After a few weeks of training with the thick grip, a normal bar suddenly feels like a broomstick. A must-have for anyone interested in strongman.
