Overview
Specification-based profile. We have not tested this product hands-on and do not give it a review score. How we research.
Body Power publishes most of the figures that matter: 28 mm shaft, 41 cm loadable sleeves, 20 kg, 185,000 psi tensile strength and a 700 kg maximum load. Sleeves run on manganese bushings with needle bearings and a lubrication system, with hard chrome sleeves.
The maker calls the knurling dual profile and IWF approved; it does not say whether that means IWF or IPF ring marks, so knurl marks stay unconfirmed. The distance between the sleeves is not published.
