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.

Cerokote power bar

Bar has great balance and feel. Very high quality and durable coating. Customer service was great and the bar got to California in less than a week from ordering.

The GOAT

For context, I compete in USAPL, so Rouge Ohio Power Bars are normally the go-to for a lot of my training buddies, but I remembered my old home gym that had all TPBs and I decided that I missed the feel, and now I can say I love TPB as my go-to for power bars over any other brand. The knurling is just better and sharper, the bearings feel smoother. The only flaw and problem that I have is that they aren't used in every federation, when they clearly should be

Great Product(s)

This was my third TPB purchase (I also own the AA-33 and a deadlift bar). To say this is strong as a house with the best knurling is an understatement (thanks Massenomics). It’s quickly become a favorite and I cannot wait to add the 29 mm to the gun rack.
