Weights, Barbells, and Specialty Bar Warranties

Our weight plates are lifetime warrantied for defects in material, functionality, workmanship, and defects.

We warranty all of our barbell and specialty bars for defects in material, functionality and workmanship for a period of up to 15 years from the date of product purchase subject to the following coverages:

  • Bronze bushings and sealed Needle bearings: 5 year warranty from defects in material, functionality and workmanship
  • 2,000lb load: 15 year warranty against bends and breaks (750lb max dynamic load)
  • 1,500lb load: 10 year warranty against bends and breaks  (600lb max dynamic load)
  • 1,000lb load: 5 year warranty against bends and breaks  (500lb max dynamic load)

Product warranty may be voided for any damaged due to negligent use, maintenance, storage or handling by the user and will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

Warranty against bending does not cover any bar which has been damaged due to negligent use, maintenance, storage or handling. Negligent use includes abusive dropping of the bar (e.g., excessive dropping on concrete, and similar usage)

Warranties apply only to the original purchaser of the product for so long as the original purchaser owns the product and is non-transferable. Warranty does not apply to barbells that have not been properly maintained.

Fast and great quality

I couldn't believe when I find out I was the final winner of the 1,000 pounds weight giveaway!

I've purchased most of my equipment from Barbell Standard - so far the equipment is always great quality and the shipping is fast.

Quality comes first

FORGED WITH PRECISION

Our iron plates epitomize precision, typically deviating by within 1% of the stated weight. 45s, 35s, and 25s are protected by our unprecedented 1.5% tolerance guarantee, while the 10s, 5s, and 2.5s receive a 2% guarantee.

Our meticulous craftsmanship extends to the core, with the center hole diameter flawlessly aligned within 0.5% of the desired 50.6mm. Ensuring every rep resonates with the unmistakable harmony of precision and power.

Beyond the precision machining and drilling, our plates undergo the transformative process of flaming and smoothing, where every surface flaw is eradicated, leaving behind a pristine finish unparalleled in quality. A durable protective coating over midnight black paint becomes their armor, while precise silver enamel lettering becomes their badge of honor.

DEFINED BY HARD WORK

These plates are not just training tools; they are the culmination of your unwavering standards, designed to push you to new heights of strength when combined with your commitment and determination to succeed.

PRESSED INTO ACTION

Cold-pressed raw steel is formed into a precise cylindrical bar with perfect balance and rigidity. Precision is key at this stage, as the bar must meet exacting standards to guarantee consistent performance.

Next, the art of adding knurling comes to life as skilled craftsmen apply detailed patterns to the bar's surface, providing our customers with the grip to lift confidently and securely. Knurl marks are also added to indicate proper hand positioning, ensuring a safe and effective lifting experience.

A Commitment to Quality

The sleeves are hand assembled with the highest quality components. Bearings and bushings are vital for the smooth, stable bar rotation, allowing for seamless execution of lifts and minimizing strain on your wrists.

Once the sleeve components are ready, they are meticulously attached to the ends of the bar. This crucial step brings the barbell to life, creating a reliable and high-performing piece of equipment that athletes can trust.

Legacy of Reliability

Lastly, the ends of the sleeves are capped, sealing the assembly and adding a polished finish to the Olympic barbell. This final touch completes the process, resulting in a remarkable piece of equipment.
