Cardillo x Texas Power Bars 450R Powerlifting Weight Belt
The choice of Olympians since 1992.
The Texas Power Bars Model 450R is the ultimate handcrafted leather lifting belt made in the USA for powerlifting and strongman. Featuring a double-ply, 4-inch straight cut design, it provides maximum support and is backed by a lifetime warranty.
Why this is the Ultimate Powerlifting Belt:
Derived using only the finest American hides, the 450R isn't like mass-produced store belts. It is handcrafted using a Double-Ply construction to create a rigid, "cast-like" support system for your torso. We refuse to sacrifice quality over quantity, producing limited volumes monthly to ensure a product that lasts a lifetime.
Model 450R vs. Model 110 (Why choose the 450R?)
The Model 450R is the premium choice for serious strength athletes. Here is how it differs from the standard 110:
- Structure & Cut: The 450R features a Straight Cut Design (4 inches all the way around). This provides maximum surface area for your abs to brace against during heavy squats and deadlifts.
- Ply & Thickness: The 450R is Double-Ply. This extra layer of leather provides significantly higher rigidity and support for heavy, compound movements compared to the single-ply 110.
- Best For: Serious Powerlifting, Strongman contests, and athletes attempting 1-Rep Maxes. If you need maximum intra-abdominal pressure, this is the belt.
Unprecedented Lifetime Guarantee
We are so confident in our product that it’s backed by a lifetime warranty. If your weight belt is ever damaged due to faulty materials or poor craftsmanship, we will fix it or replace it – for FREE!
