The Barbell Standard Hex Trap Bar is an Olympic trap bar built from 188,000 PSI steel and rated for a 700LB static load. Its hex shape puts the load in line with your center of gravity, which takes stress off the lower back during deadlifts. Two knurled grip sets sit at different heights, so you flip the bar to switch between a standard pull and an elevated one. It also works for shrugs, rows, farmer walks and overhead presses. Reviewers call it compact, well welded and comfortable to grip, and the 20.25-inch handle spacing suits a natural grip for most lifters.

Owners rate it highly, praising the build quality, compact size and comfortable knurling.
This is a hex (trap) bar sold with a set of weight plates. The hex shape keeps the weight aligned with your center of gravity, which reduces the load on the lower back during deadlifts.
The bar is forged from steel with 188,000 PSI tensile strength and has a corrosion-resistant bright zinc coating. It is rated for a 700 lb static load. Medium hill knurling gives a secure grip without being overly abrasive.
It has two sets of knurled grips. One set sits four inches above the plate centerline, and you flip the bar to switch between them. Besides deadlifts, it can be used for shrugs, rows, farmer walks and overhead presses.
