The Texas Bench Bar was created for the big bench pressers.  This bar will stay straight with big weight on it without feeling too big in your hands.  The least amount of flex equals the shortest distance of travel from top of lift, to chest and back again.  The Texas Bench Bar is the standard  bench bar in the APC.




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.

Buy it if you like to bench.

Very impressed with the bench bar and is now my favorite bar in garage gym.I like the 30 mm diameter and the knurling better than my stainless Ohio power bar.My progress on my bench has increased quite a bit since I enjoy using this bar more.
