Rogue Curl Bar

Rogue Curl Bar
Rogue’s first-ever Curl Bar is fully machined and assembled in the USA and adapts many of the same properties from our flagship Rogue Ohio Bar—including bronze bushings, a snap ring design, and our trademark Ohio knurl pattern. Many athletes can benefit from this type of specialty camber bar, as the bends in the shaft help limit stress on the wrists and reduce common injury risks. Lifters can also employ a narrow grip with the Rogue Curl Bar for performing tricep extensions and close grip curls.

The first run of the Curl Bar includes a unique E-coat finish with bright zinc sleeves. The 1.96” diameter sleeves are compatible with most standard Olympic plates, but the 31.50″ space between the sleeves means that this bar is NOT designed to be rackable.

KEY FEATURES OF THE ROGUE CURL BAR
Cambered Knurled Barbell

Cambered Knurled Barbell
The curved shaft of the traditional Curl Bar has been trusted by experienced, beginner, and rehabbing athletes for years as a way to reduce strain on the wrists during high-rep workouts. The Rogue Curl Bar updates this premise by incorporating elements from our top in-house Olympic weightlifting bars to create a higher caliber tool. This includes the exclusive non-abrasive knurl pattern from our Ohio Bar—battle tested for years at the highest levels of competition.

E-Coat Finish

E-Coat Finish
The shaft of the Curl Bar is finished with a black “E-coat”—the first bar in the Rogue fleet with this unique finish. E-coating is an electrically-applied paint coating initially developed for the automotive industry due to its superior coverage, adhesion, and corrosion resistance. E-coating creates a super even finish without dripping, pooling or gaps. It’s got cosmetic appeal, but is also consistently tough, uniform, and chip resistant.

Rogue Construction – Made in the USA
The Rogue Curl Bar is one of the few specialty bars of this type to be fully designed, machined, and assembled in the USA. The 28.5MM diameter bar is made from 110,000 PSI tensile strength steel and precision bent to the highest standards. It features bronze bushings, which act as bearing surfaces between the bar sleeves and shaft for a smooth feel. The sleeves (bright zinc in the initial run) are assembled to the shaft using the same snap ring design found in many of our most popular Olympic bars.

The sleeves of the Curl Bar are compatible with most standard Oly plates, including our own Rogue Olympic Plates. You can explore the Rogue catalog for top quality barbell collars and Gym Chalk, as well as our full line of other specialty bars. Many athletes also use the Curl Bar in conjunction with the Rogue Arm Blaster accessory, which can help keep the arms tight against the body—isolating the biceps for greater strength building benefits.

Close Grip Camber

Close Grip Camber
The knurling on the Rogue Curl Bar extends to the inside Close Grip portion of the shaft, providing the additional option of performing challenging tricep extensions, close grip curls, or other movements. Narrow grip barbell curls can help better target the long (outer) head of the biceps muscle.

F SCALE™
The F Scale™ is a durability scale for barbells based on functional testing at stresses similar to what barbells experience when being dropped from overhead. Bars that have been treated with Rogue Work Hardening (RWH™) are designated by having an R in their F Rating™. For more information on F Scale™ click here.

OXIDATION RATE
The resistance of a barbell to oxidation depends on the type of steel and the coating. Barbells at the lower end of the spectrum will require more care and maintenance to preserve their appearance than barbells at the upper end of the spectrum.
