I love this short axle. We use it in my gym for cleans, high pulls, bent rows, overhead carries, zercher carries, and more. Its short space-saving length is especially useful when 2 or more lifters are super-setting exercises. We also have the full-length Titan axle in our gym that we use mostly in outdoor settings (Strongman training).

I bought the 60 in axle bar because I trained most of the time in my one-bedroom apartment and simply don't have the room for the larger version. What can I say, it does exactly what it should do. You can't beat the price for something as simple as this. If I could make any recommendations to the manufacturer I would say play some lines where the power rings would normally go. It would also be great if the sleeves were 10 inches instead of eight but that's just me nitpicking at this point

The 60" Axle bar as a tool is great, my only issue is when the bar got to me there were gouges in places that were already rusting and very rough grind marks in other places. Also there was a lot of rust already forming inside the pipe as well. So the powder coat was very poorly done as there were several major imperfections but at the end of the days its a pipe and i didn't want to deal with the hassle of sending it back for the price tag that's attached to it. I got this originally for my wife since i am trying to get her into lifting weights and she was complaining that she was having trouble stabilizing the longer barbells. For that purpose it works perfect. I've also found that its fantastic for a poor man's sholderrok / steel mace workouts (provided that you're tall enough, i'm 6'1") with the added bonus of it being a fat bar so every move builds forearms as well. I have all rubber change plates from fringesport that i put on one end to use for the makeshift mace, that way if the collar ever fails its only light rubber plates hitting the floor. All in all its an extremely versatile tool to add to the garage. For the price its an easy choice.

Paint was very uneven and scuffed but the sturdiness of the product is wonderful. Still an amazing product for the price.

I don't know why anyone would pay more for an axle bar! I plan on purchasing several more for my gym!

I was watching the 84" version for quite some time before I decided I couldn't wait any longer for it to come back in stock so I ordered the shorter fat bar. This thing is awesome for the price! Great for barbell curls or tricep extensions. Finish was good the welds were blah (titan signature) but the bar is great if you look past those. End caps were smashed during shipping so my bar could use some. I use old deep dish Hampton plates and Hampton rubber plates and they all fit great!

For the price it is great. My titan fitness olympic competition plates do not fit, but my steel plates do. Other than my titan plates not fitting my titan bar, I do enjoy warning up for dead lifts with this.
