The Ohio Bar – Black Zinc is a high-quality, multi-purpose barbell made by Rogue in Columbus, Ohio. It’s designed to perform well across a wide range of strength training disciplines—powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, CrossFit, etc. The shaft is made from high-grade U.S. steel with about 190,000 PSI tensile strength. It features Rogue’s dual knurl marks, which means it has markings for both powerlifting and Olympic lifting, but it does not have a centre knurl, making certain positions such as front rack or cleans more comfortable. The shaft is finished in black zinc coating, while the sleeves are bright zinc, giving a striking look and helping with corrosion resistance. Bronze bushings ensure a reliable spin, and the sleeves are loaded with plates using approximately 16.40 inches of space. Built tough, the bar has an F-Scale rating of F8-R, indicating high durability under repeated loads/drops.
