Olympic Bar SQMIZE® POWER PACK OB86CR-XE Crosslifting®

The SQMIZE® POWER PACK OB86CR-XE Olympic Bar is a solid all-round bar for Crosslifting® – Commercial Grade, robust and consistently based on the Olympic standard in terms of weight and dimensions. It combines smooth hybrid bearing performance with a clean Zinc Matte Gloss coating and a 30 mm shaft that sits reliably in the hands during mixed training.

Core Feature: Hybrid Bearing System with Four Needle Bearings and Two Bronze Bushings

Rotation is provided by a hybrid bearing system consisting of four needle bearings and two self-lubricating bronze bushings. The needle bearings provide the fast, consistent rotation required for dynamic movements, while the bronze bushings deliver smoothness and durability for continuous use. The result is smooth sleeve rotation that performs just as well during functional training as it does during heavy compound exercises.

Alloy Steel with 175,000 PSI Tensile Strength

The OB86CR-XE is made from alloy specialty steel (Alloy Steel) and designed for a tensile strength of 175,000 PSI. Its static load limit is 1,000 lbs (450 kg) – a strong value for a 30 mm training bar and more than enough reserve for ambitious Crosslifting® training in everyday gym use. The OB86CR-XE is designed for controlled lifting and placing of the bar; for dropping, it is better to choose the drop-tested bars from the ELITE CLUB range.

Grip, Knurling and Markings

The shaft has a diameter of 30 mm, giving it a slightly fuller feel in the hand – comfortable for mixed training with high repetition volumes. The knurling is tuned to light sharp: grippy yet gentle on the skin. Centre knurling is omitted. For different grip positions in Weightlifting and Powerlifting, the bar features both IWF and IPF markings (810/910 mm).

Coating

The shaft and barbell sleeves are uniformly finished with a Zinc Matte Gloss coating in Silver Matte, providing solid rust resistance. The bar is secured with high-quality Dual Snap Ring collars featuring an embossed SQMIZE® logo, which securely enclose the sleeves.
