Hades Deadlift Bar - 20 KG

Raising the bar. These barbells were over 10 years in the making – the fusion of customer insights, rigorous testing, thousands of reps by different types of athletes, and decades of experience in both lifting and designing quality, innovative gym equipment.

The Hades™ deadlift bar is REP’s top-tier deadlifting-specific barbell. This 20kg (44.1lb) bar features no center knurling and very aggressive, deep, mountain-style knurling to provide maximum grip support for heavy deadlifts. The thinner diameter shaft (27mm vs. 29mm for a standard powerlifting barbell) and longer total length (7.6’ vs. 7.3’) allows for more flex under heavy loads. The added flex in the shaft allows the lifter to pull from a slightly higher position as the weight leaves the ground, which is more optimal, and can contribute to heavier lifts.

• INCREASED FLEX: The thinner shaft diameter and longer length means more flex, leading to a more advantageous pulling position during heavier lifts.
• MORE WEIGHT: The 15.75” loadable sleeve length, longer than most other deadlift bars, means more space for weight plates on the bar.
• DEEP MOUNTAIN KNURLING: Very aggressive, deep, mountain-style knurling ensures the lifter has a secure grip on the bar while deadlifting, and knurl markings help with proper hand placement.
• SMOOTH SLEEVES: Smooth sleeves are easier and quieter to load than ribbed sleeves, and the bronze bushing construction is ideal for slower, strength-focused lifts, like deadlifting.
• HIGH-END TOUCHES: This is a premium barbell with high-end details, like laser etchings of the barbell name and weight; a tribute to Colorado, where REP was founded, on the inside of the sleeves; and metal endcaps featuring unique designs.
• PREMIUM FINISH: The Hades™ deadlift bar is offered in a black Cerakote shaft with Duracoat® sleeves for a distinct, blacked out look.
