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.

Sexy bar

This bar is so beautiful and amazing to lift with. Such a great investment for our personal home gym. Do it and you won't regret it!

Great Power Bar

WoW!! This is a beautiful bar. Love the knurling. Your hands really stick on the bar without any chalk needed. Did the Big 3 with this bar without any problems. Try not to listen to some of those negative reviews on YouTube about this bar. You won't be disappointed!! Highly recommend!!

Holy SH!T This is a great bar!

Wow! I wish I bought this bar in the first place! It is built like a tank, it looks amazing and the knurling is spectacular! I may never need to use chalk again. I ordered the bar over the weekend and it shipped first thing Monday morning. I got the bar 2 days later. The shipping packaging was perfect...(be prepared to struggle opening the tub its packed so well). Its a bushing bar, but it spins well, but not too much. I will be using the bar for bench, squat and dead lift so I didnt want the spin of a bearing bar. But the real story is the knurling. If you want aggressive knurling this should be the only bar you buy. (I wasted money on a Synergee bar that said it had aggressive knurling and it was terribly weak). Everyone should have a Texas Power Bar...PERIOD.

You won't be disappointed!

Shipped well within the posted time frame and shipping was very quick. I was a little worried that the knurling might be too aggressive, but upon receiving it, I'm extremely happy with it. Knurling is great, even throughout, fairly aggressive but not so much that it cuts into my hands. Sleeves rotate very smoothly, and the fit and finish is top notch. Overall an excellent barbell at a great price.

10/10 worth every penny

Received my original Texas Power Bar well within the posted lead time. Good Communication about order status. Beautiful craftsmanship the bar is flawless right out of the tube. Already put to use in a few work outs and know I am set for life with this barbell. Knurling is top notch. Truly built to last a lifetime. I went with bare steel, would buy again. Looking at their other bars now. 100% Recommend!
