10KG Performance Training Bar
OB10-CH-IWF 3
The 10KG Junior Performance Training Bar is of the same precision quality and construction as some of our most elite barbells. This is an excellent tool for the junior or beginning lifter and can be used for a variety of training applications. The distance between the collars is the same as a competition barbell, so there's a smoother transition as the lifter advances. The bar shaft and sleeves are coated in hard chrome for added durability.
The bar shaft is made from precision ground alloy steel. The strength of the shaft is tested with every shipment of raw material to ensure we have a consistent 180,000 PSI tensile strength. This attention to detail also allows for an excellent whip and long-term performance of our bars.
The bar sleeves are precision welded to eliminate failure. Each sleeve is coated with a hard chrome for protection against dropping. Sleeves rotate around high strength composite bushings used in aircraft and automotive industries for smooth rotation.

Fantastic barbell!
Order support was very good and courteous. Shipping and packaging was fast and secure. The bar itself is extremely well-made and I’m very happy with the it. Knurling is just right and the metal fabrication is clean and tight. This a precision tool that I look forward to using for many hours. Well worth the money!
United StatesA Great Training Bar that is well designed.
I received this bar in about 15 days after ordering and have used it since May 2020. I wanted to use the bar before I made a review. It is now August 2, 2020. I have been working out with weights since I was 12 and I am now 68 years old. I also used to own my own 7,200 square foot gym and used various bars by different manufacturers over the last 56 years. The reason I ordered the bar is due to a traumatic head injury I received in 1972 when I was 19 serving in the Marine Corps overseas which through the years has caused other health issues such as severe muscle weakness and dysautonomia. I can’t start my workouts with regular bars that weigh 30 to 45 lbs on many movements like curls and rows. By using this 22 lb bar I am able to start my exercise and slowly add smaller plates for a few sets. The bar is extremely well made. It is perfectly balanced with what I consider a perfect grip on the bar. Not too aggressive and not too light. It is very comfortable and allows you to have a secure and comfortable grip without damaging the palms of your hands. It fits my York power rack perfectly and the sleeves rotate smoothly. The sleeves are very smooth which I like and my 50 year old lighter (2 1/4, 5, and 10 lb) York Olympic plates with 50 ½ mm holes fit beautifully over the 50 mm sleeves. The weld that is part of the sleeve does not get in the way of the plates being flushed against the inside flat surface of the sleeve. I have looked at other similar bars from manufacturers and I could find a bar of this caliber and design anywhere else. Thank you for understanding how a bar should be made. I want you to know American Barbell how much I really appreciate this bar.
United StatesPerfect size for a small home gym
Great barbell! My fiancé and I built a home gym and we had a very small space to fit a squat rack. A full size Olympic bar was out of the question and the shorter bars weren’t short enough. This barbell is perfect for us. It has the right dimensions for our space, is rackable, and can fit more than enough weight with high quality bumpers or iron. Quality is also top notch!
