The REP Fitness Helios Squat Bar is a specialty barbell engineered for squats – extremely useful to train for competitions with squat bar set-ups, and for lifters who take leg strength training exercises seriously. At 94.5 inches (7.9 feet) in length, it surpasses the standard 20kg barbell length, allowing weight plates to avoid contact with power rack uprights during racking and unracking. Its 32mm diameter shaft, thicker than the standard 29mm powerlifting barbell, provides added rigidity and minimizes whip/flex under heavy loads, offering a more stable squat experience. Weighing 25kg (55lbs), this squat bar is heavier than a regular 20kg (44.1lbs) barbell, designed to accommodate serious strength training. Featuring a fully knurled shaft with aggressive, deep mountain-style knurling, the Helios Squat Bar ensures a secure grip and proper hand positioning for squats. Available in a black Cerakote shaft with Duracoat™ sleeves, it also offers a sleek, durable finish resistant to wear and corrosion. The smooth sleeves, built with bronze bushing construction, are ideal for slower, strength-focused lifts like squats, and allow for quieter, easier loading. Rated for a staggering 1,500 pounds, this bar has been tested by some of the strongest lifters, making it a reliable tool for pushing squat PRs to new heights.
