History

The Texas Deadlift Bar by Buddy Capps is the official deadlifting bar of:
American Powerlifting Committee
The International Federations
54 countries with the Global Powerlifting Alliance for Raw Powerlifting
The International Powerlifting organization for equipped powerlifting

Specs:

92.5” Length
27mm Diameter (1 1/16)
20 kilos (44lbs)
18” Sleeves
56” Inside collars
32” hand space rings
190k tensile strength
Aggressive knurl
No center knurl




When I started lifting weights with Olympic bars back in the 1960’s, I noticed that there was hardly any grip. The knurling on these bars was so light when the bars were new, that now years later they were almost slick. The sleeves were held on to the bar with a threaded end cap and the inside collars were held in place with a set screw. Each sleeve consisted of three pieces.



The Goal
was to create a bar that would have and keep a better knurled grip. A bar, whose sleeves wouldn’t slide in to the center. A maintenance free bar.

The Result - The Texas Power Bar

Proudly Made in the USA Since 1980. The shafts are center less ground, demagnetized and oiled to the max before shipping to Texas. Once at our production facility, we machine and then knurl each shaft to create a grip that is still the best in the industry. Texas Power Bars have different finishes available including black zinc and chrome plating.The sleeves are are available raw or chrome plated.

Big tensile strength numbers sound very impressive and we have them but, the proof is on the platform. Hundreds of state, national, international and world powerlifting records have been and continue to be set and broken on the The Texas Power Bar.

Gnarly knurling

I feel like my grip will never give out. black zinc is the way to go. I might be an idiot but I took me an hour just to get it out of the package

Awesome bar! Be careful opening it, I cut a big notch in the end with a saw trying to open the pa...

It’s great but be careful opening it, there is no padding just a metal end cap, thought I was cutting all the way close to the end cap but the end of the bar was right up against the metal cap and I cut a 2” grove down it with my saws all
