Olympic Hex Weight Bar Reviews

4.8 Rating 361 Reviews

The Olympic Hex Weight Bar combines the flush handle of a regular hex bar with a raised grip to create a multifunctional specialty barbell. This trap, or hex bar, is specialized for three essential exercises: the deadlift, the shrug, and pulls. The bar is constructed from precision-grade steel, sits 6" off the ground, and is crafted with two sets of 25mm medium-knurled neutral handles that give a firm, sturdy grip as you lift your weights. During your workout, easily switch from one set of handles to the other by flipping the bar. Doing so focuses on shrugs and limiting shoulder stress. Use this bar to isolate your abdominals, glutes, legs, and arms. Made to support a weight capacity of up to 500 LB, this OL Trap Bar helps to isolate muscle groups, tone, and tighten specific body parts and allows you to perform deadlifts accurately without placing unnecessary strain on your lower back.

“I was initially worried about ordering because I had seen horror stories of damage occurring in transit or arriving in box with defects however my trap bar arrived in very good packaging without any issues. The barbell sleeves had poked out on either side of the box but the inner plastic was still intact and without any notable problems.”

“I absolutely do not think there is a better hex bar out there for the money. I've used several that cost much more that were either similar or inferior. The finish is good with thick chrome plating. No rust was evident on arrival, and there is none 4 months later. Both handles are useful though I really only use the high handles as I'm fairly tall. I've loaded up to 400# for shrugs and deads with no problems at all. The knurling is extremely aggressive, but I love it. No slipping, no chalk, no problems. The packaging allowed the end of one sleeve to pop through the box, but I can 't imagine being able to ship one of these in anything short of wooden crate successfully - and that's just dumb. Buy one. Get strong. Stick with Titan - every time.”

“Bar was supposed to come Tuesday. Didn't come until Friday. Box was pretty beat up to the point it was sent back to FedEx to be inspected. Still intact when it arrived. Bar is really sturdy and makes deadlifting a breeze. I don't lift more that 250 lbs so the smaller area to place bumper plates isn't an issue. Overall this is a must have for any garage gym.”

“Its a trap bar/ hex bar for less than $120 shipped. A great deal for what it is. The packaging was rough but I'm not working out with the box so what do I care. The bar is as basic as can be but it works. Great for deadlifts, farmers carries and lunges. All edges are welded and there is no rotation in the bar. Only downside is that it only hold 3 45lb plates per side.”

“If you are using bumper plates, this will only hold up to three 45 lbs plates.”

“I bought this Hex Bar for carries, shrugs, deadlifts, etc and it has not disappointed. The gnurl is very aggressive, which I personally prefer. If you are using bumper plates, keep in mind that the sleeves are not very long compared to Rogue's Hex, so this bar cannot be loaded much more than 3x 45# bumpers per side. Again, was not an issue to me. The packaging was beat to hell when it arrived, but upon inspection, it appeared to be the fashion in which FedEx handled the box. The bar was undamaged once opened though. I would recommend this bar to anyone, especially when compared to FringeSport ($215), Rep Fitness ($125 + Shipping) and Rogue ($295-$325 + Shipping)”

“Bought the bar on black Friday with a 15% discount. So far I love the bar. Pros the medium knurl, the overall quality for the price, and mine came with collars. No cons for me, the packaging came in overall good shape, the bar did have a small nick, but I'm extremely happy with the bar.”

“This bar has been working out great. The knurling is plenty grippy and the sleeves are long enough for me. Cant beet the value of this bar.”
