Professional Deadlift Barbell-Black Oxide

If you're looking for the top deadlift bar with the big whip, it's the LOEFT Deadlift Barbell. Our Deadlifting bar features a thin flexible 27mm shaft with a sharp, deep, and aggressive knurling made from a durable steel to maximize whip. We were looking for the right balance between bar flex with a bar under load, and the ability to return to straight without a permanent bend for a lifetime of proper usage. All with the intent of allowing the athlete to lift more weight from the floor.

What Bar Should I Use For Deadlift?

The LOEFT Deadlift Bar is a specialty barbell which is designed to help the athlete lift more weight from the floor. By making the shaft thinner 27mm, and the 92in barbell a little longer than P86B powerlifting bars, this barbell allows slack to be pulled from the bar before the plates are lifted off the ground. This allows for the lifter to exert a little less energy and go through a slightly shorter range of motion as compared to a stiffer barbell.

What is the difference between a multipurpose barbell and a deadlift bar?

A deadlift bar is made to flex with a thinner shaft and a longer overall length, which should only be used for deadlifting. Squatting or bench pressing heavy weight on a deadlift bar would see the weight flex up and down tremendously which could negatively affect the athletes balance and centering due to the fact that the bar will be flexing under the load of the weights.

Is a Deadlift Bar Worth It?

This all depends on how badly you want the weight to move. If you are trying to seek out pulling every last gram of weight, then a Deadlift Bar is worth its cost. Maybe you just want to try somthing different to spice up your training.
