20kg 7ft Olympic Barbell (500lb Capacity) 2.2m Chrome Bar for Squats, Deadlifts & Bench Press | Australia
The 20kg 7ft Olympic barbell is the foundation piece of equipment in almost every serious home gym, PT studio and commercial facility across Australia. Rated to 226kg (500lb), fitted with bronze bushing sleeves for smooth rotation, and finished with medium-depth dual-mark knurling, this bar is built to handle the major compound lifts, including deadlifts, squats, bench press, overhead press, cleans and rows.
At 2.2m in length with universal 50mm Olympic sleeves, it is compatible with all standard bumper and iron plates and fits every squat rack and power rack on the market. Whether you are setting up a garage gym or fitting out a commercial training floor, this is one of the more versatile 20kg Olympic barbells available in Australia.

Built For Serious Strength Training
Why The Bronze Bushings Matter
Standard barbells typically use fixed sleeves that do not rotate, which puts extra torque through your wrists during dynamic lifts like cleans and snatches. This 20kg Olympic barbell uses bronze bushing sleeves, allowing the sleeve to spin independently of the shaft as the plates rotate. That means smoother bar path, less wrist strain, and a bar that is genuinely suited to Olympic lifting, not just static pressing and pulling movements.

BeginnersStarting a structured barbell program, since 20kg is the universal standard weight to train with
This bar is probably not the right fit if you already own a full set of 25mm standard plates, since they will not fit the 50mm Olympic sleeves. It is also not the best starting point if you specifically need a lightweight technique bar under 20kg, or if you are after a complete rack and bar package rather than a standalone barbell.
- 226kg (500lb) rated capacity suits both home and commercial use
- Bronze bushing sleeves give a smooth, controlled spin under load
- No centre knurl makes front squats and cleans more comfortable
- Universal 50mm sleeves fit all standard Olympic plates
- Chrome finish resists corrosion in humid Australian conditions
- Plates and collars are sold separately and add to the total setup cost
- At 20kg, it is heavier than technique bars used for absolute beginners or younger lifters
- Chrome sleeves should be wiped down after humid or sweaty sessions to prevent surface rust over time
- At 2.2m long, it needs adequate wall or rack clearance to store safely
