Overview
Specification-based profile. We have not tested this product hands-on and do not give it a review score. How we research.
A triceps bar puts two parallel handles inside a frame, so you hold it with a neutral grip for triceps extensions, hammer curls and front raises. BodyMax's chrome version weighs 9.5 kg and has 25 mm grips and 49.5 mm Olympic sleeves.
Its load figure is not settled: the spec table gives 115 kg and the description's 'Maximum Weight' is 80 kg. Plan around the lower figure until BodyMax resolves it. Fitshop's 'Part A, B and C' measurements have no key, so no length is recorded.

Before ordering
- 9 October 2026: Amazon UK B000LB31EU?th=1&psc=1 showed an Add to Basket featured offer sold by Fitshop UK (only 2 left in stock). No import or Global Store offer; checkout not tested.
- Identity: Amazon's model and part number are WTBC0020, matching Fitshop's SKU. The barcodes differ (Amazon GTIN 05060125402962, Fitshop 5056359105649), the same pattern as the shrug trap bar and batch 35's 6 ft bar; an open operator decision.
- Listing image rule check, 9 October 2026: the single gallery image is product-only; the listing has no A+ or brand panels.
