Why the Keystone Bar?

  • Heat-treated AISI/SAE steel with 205,000 PSI tensile strength (166,750 PSI yield) offers ideal whip and resilience for Olympic lifts.
  • Precision straightened within ±0.5 mm for consistent performance under load.
  • 28 mm grip diameter (20 kg) with dual IWF/powerlifting knurling, no center knurl — ideal for snatch, clean & jerk, and CrossFit®.
  • Needle-bearing sleeves (4 bearings + brass bushing) provide smooth, fast rotation and reduce wrist strain.
  • Hard chrome finish resists rust and wear for long-lasting durability.
  • Dual snap‑ring retention ensures sleeve stability during heavy lifts.

Designed by Champions

This bar was developed over three years in collaboration with elite lifters and coaches:

  • Russell McDonald – Team USA Master Class Olympic Weightlifting Champion
  • Jon Zajac – Nationally ranked Olympic weightlifter
  • Tim Steel – Certified coach and professional gym owner

The result is a bar that feels like a premium $800+ model — but priced under $300.
