SQMIZE® PREMIUM BISON Hybrid Barbell Manufacturer Edition FX Gold 

A statement of German craftsmanship. 

The SQMIZE® PREMIUM BISON Hybrid Barbell Manufacturer Edition FX Gold is more than just a training device—it is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. An expression of individuality and aesthetics. Manufactured in small batches and with the highest precision, its appearance exudes an extraordinary presence. Elegant Cerakote® FX Gold and Hard Chrome come together here in perfect harmony. The “GOLD” coating unfolds its breathtaking interplay of deep colors and iridescent metallic effects through a sophisticated “wet-on-wet” process. 

Exclusivity meets high-end performance 

This unique hybrid bar is a symbiosis of power, precision, and aesthetics. At its heart is a special alloy steel with a tensile strength of 213,000 PSI and a static load limit of 680 kg (1,500 lbs), designed for extreme durability and maximum stress. 

The 25 mm Olympic barbell has a balanced knurling that guarantees a secure and comfortable grip during fast, explosive lifts such as cleans and snatches. The special bearing system, consisting of a careful combination of 4 ball bearings, 4 needle bearings, and 2 bronze bearings, ensures optimal, even spin. With dual markings for IWF and IPF, the bar is ideal for a variety of grip positions in weightlifting and powerlifting. 

Craftsmanship in detail 

This barbell owes its unique appearance to the elaborate pre-treatment and the original Cerakote coating, a ceramic coating from the USA. The ceramic film is wafer-thin and ensures high grip and optimal protection. Each of these exclusive hybrid bars is produced in the Hamburg area. Carefully pre-treated, coated, assembled, and personally tested once again before shipping.
