York (#32122) 6' Black Oxide Olympic Bar

If your space is limited or you'd prefer a setup that feels focused and manageable, the York 6′ Black Oxide Olympic Bar may be exactly what you’re looking for. With its shorter length and sturdy feel, this bar brings reliable handling and a purposeful grip that simplifies transitions and helps you maintain confidence from your first lift to your last.

Key Features — What You’ll Appreciate

• Rugged North American Steel with Black Oxide Finish Crafted with sturdy, USA-made steel (min. 100,000 PSI tensile strength), the black oxide coating stands out visually and offers a purposefully textured grip that feels secure under your hands.
• Hard Chrome Split-Sleeve “Bolt-Less” Design The sleeves use a smarter split design that keeps them tight and avoids those annoying loose ends over time—so your focus stays on the lift, not readjustment.
• Compact 6' Length Ideal for Smaller Spaces At 6 feet long, this bar is easier to store and move around—making it a great fit for home gyms, tightly spaced studios, or youth training setups.
• Grip & Rotating Sleeves Engineered for Comfort and Function The 30 mm shaft sits comfortably in hand, and sleeves rotate smoothly on bushings for hassle-free plate loading.
• 52″ Grip Span and 8.25″ Sleeves for Balanced Lifting Provides ample space for a natural grip and accommodates enough plates, yet stays compact overall.
• Commercial-Grade Build—Versatile and Dependable Built for various settings—home, school, or studio—this bar brings reliability and a feel of intention to each lift.

User Interface & Experience

Pick it up and it just feels right—not too long, not too heavy, yet solid and confident. The textured black oxide grip invites a steady hold, the sleeves rotate without fuss during plate changes, and the shorter design makes switching exercises feel fluid, not forced.
