Why Choose the Barbell Standard Hex Bar?

Designed for Safety

The enclosing design of the Hex Bar (Trap Bar) allows you to align the weight with your center of gravity, reducing strain on your lower spine during deadlifts and enforcing a more strict hip focused form at the bottom of the deadlift movement. This ergonomic design is a perfect solution for lifters with past lower back injuries or anyone that wants to reduce the chance of lower back injuries from improper straight bar deadlift form..

Adds Versatility

The Hex Bar allows for a more natural and full range of movement for exercises like shrugs, rows, farmer walks, overhead press, and more.

Dual Precision Knurled Grips

The handles of the Barbell Standard Hex Bar feature precise medium hill knurling that provides a secure grip without being overly abrasive. One set of grips is elevated four inches higher than the centerline of the weight plates to unlock multiple options. Simply flip the bar over to choose between the elevated or the middle knurled grips.

10 Year Warranty

Just like all of our products, Barbell Standard stands behind the quality of our Hex Bar. The long-term quality and durability of our equipment is ensured with a 10 year warranty, giving you confidence to focus on safe training.

    The Perfect Hex Bar for Me

    Prior to this purchase, I had used a Hex Bar for years. Before buying one for my home gym, I decided to confirm that my purchase would fit my body. Unlike a barbell, a hex bar grip distance is set. The distance between the handles on the gym bar and my natural grip - measuring palm to palm with my arms hanging down - is just over 20 inches. Most of the quality hex bars I found for sale had wider grips, up to 25 inches. The Hex Bar 2.0 - has 20.25 inches between the handles. And everything about the bar is great: sharp black color, perfect build, and a smaller footprint for my home gym. For me - it's perfect. Picture attached. Thanks Barbell Standard for a great product!

    Excellent bar, you won’t find better for price.

    For the money, you won’t find anything better. Size, knurling, handles are all what you would expect from a high end bar. Construction quality is excellent. You won’t be disappointed with your purchase. Not to mention, Barbell Standard’s customer service is top notch. Quality products at an unbeatable price is why they are my go to for weights and bars.

    Great product. Love the black color and the quality is awesome. I never owned one before but I’ve used them for shoulder shrugs in the past. Looking forward to seeing all the cool exercises I can do with this.
