Rogue Euro 28MM Olympic Weightlifting Bar
Certified By The International Weightlifting Federation

For the athlete who refuses anything but the best, this is your next Olympic barbell. The IWF-certified Rogue Euro 28MM Oly WL Bar is machined and assembled in Columbus, Ohio, using only top-tier European steel (215,000 PSI), with 10 sets of quality needle bearings, friction welded sleeves, and a center knurl. A unique Cerakote shaft finish (in our Rogue High Gloss Clear) offers great corrosion resistance and a sleek look. Our latest design also now includes Rogue and IWF branding on both the shaft and the endcaps.

Before leaving the factory, each Euro Olympic Bar goes through our Rogue Work Hardening process, ensuring a minimum durability rating of F6-R on the F-Scale. Rigorous testing follows to guarantee absolute precision—from exact weight and straightness to the consistency of the bar’s whip and spin. No other Olympic barbell in the Rogue fleet, or in the industry, can call itself an upgrade over this one.

KEY FEATURES OF THE ROGUE EURO 28MM OLY WL BAR

IWF Certification
1

IWF Certification

The Rogue Euro 28MM Olympic Weightlifting Bar has been recognized at the highest levels of competition through its IWF certification. In the strength world, IWF approval is like the equivalent of a restaurant getting its Michelin stars, so we’re proud to include a new IWF Cerakote logo on the shaft of the latest Euro Bar, along with additional IWF branding on the endcaps.


EU Steel
2

EU Steel

At a minimum tensile strength of 215,000 PSI, the Euro Olympic Weightlifting Bar is among the strongest in the Rogue arsenal, but that’s not the only reason we chose this ultra-durable steel. Over years of testing, many weightlifters have found that the raw materials used in EU steel also help produce a greater whip during snatches and cleans. Each shaft is ground and polished prior to machining (to ensure a smooth finish), and individually tested and straightened to within 0.015” (0.38MM).

Friction Welded Sleeves + Needle Bearings
3

Friction Welded Sleeves + Needle Bearings

Using a process from the worlds of aviation and automotive manufacturing, the chrome sleeves on the EU Olympic Weightlifting Bar are friction welded—creating a superior, forged-quality bond. This method is more precise than most joining techniques and helps prevent any changes in the integrity of the sleeve. Combined with 10 sets of top-quality needle bearings, the result is a barbell with a smooth, consistent, quieter spin.

Cerakote Shaft Finish
4

Cerakote Shaft Finish

This version of the Euro Bar is distinct for its use of Cerakote, a ceramic-based coating commonly trusted by firearm manufacturers for its remarkable durability in thin applications. This unique finish can deliver superb abrasion/wear/corrosion resistance over time—100X that of standard black zinc—and it’s utilized here in our Rogue High Gloss Clear, with the Rogue logo branded to the right of the center knurl and the IWF logo to the left. The sleeves still have their original chrome finish.

Precision Machining
5

Precision Machining

Every EU Oly Bar is machined in Columbus, Ohio, on new US-built Haas machines, and includes both Olympic knurl marks and a center knurl for extra “stick.” The knurling itself features a full, uniform pattern with a medium intensity that won’t shred up your hands. Rather than relying on visibility alone, each bar is also manually tested to ensure the actual “feel” is up to Rogue standards.

A New Addition to Your Rogue Arsenal
6

A New Addition to Your Rogue Arsenal

As the leading manufacturer of strength and conditioning equipment, Rogue offers a full collection of premium Olympic bearing bars and related gear. This includes the original Rogue Olympic WL Bar, the Cerakote Oly WL Bar, the Stainless Oly WL Bar, the Rogue Pyrros Bar, and the Russian Bar. You can also complement your new barbell with quality plates, collars, and equipment storage systems.

F SCALE™

The F Scale™ is a durability scale for barbells based on functional testing at stresses similar to what barbells experience when being dropped from overhead. Bars that have been treated with Rogue Work Hardening (RWH™) are designated by having an R in their F Rating™. For more information on F Scale™ click here.

OXIDATION RATE

The resistance of a barbell to oxidation depends on the type of steel and the coating. Barbells at the lower end of the spectrum will require more care and maintenance to preserve their appearance than barbells at the upper end of the spectrum.

*Warranty against bending does not cover any bar which has been damaged due to negligent or faulty use, alteration, maintenance, storage or handling by the user. Negligent or faulty use includes abusive dropping of the bar (i.e., dropping the bar on a box, bench, spotter arms or pins in a power rack, excessive dropping with insufficient or damaged bumpers, or excessive dropping with iron plates, and similar usage). Any specific issues regarding a Rogue product with which a customer is not satisfied will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. We have found that most problems with bars we replace are related to abusive use rather than manufacturing or materials issues.

Goodness Gracious
I bought this as an adjunct to my standard bar that is more in the mold of power bar than advertised. The day it came in wanted to try it out so began doing some clean and jerks just to get a feel for it. Night and day difference. Felt like I finally had the right tool for the job. Incredible bar.

One of the best barbells i own
Great OLY bar. It's not as whippy as Eleiko WL bars, but it has sharper / better (in my opinion) knurling and it spins forever. Would buy again.

Awesome bar!
When I initially purchased this barbell, I was a bit hesitant because of the price. after having it for a few months now, I have to say it had been one of the best purchases I have made for my home gym. I use it for all sorts of workouts other than Olympic lifting and it holds true. Pricey, but worth it!

Great Bar for Athletes
This is the first bar I bought. I am a big fan of the naturally fast spin, strong knurling, and consistent whip. My only complaint is the weakness of the coating and the initial aggressiveness of the center knurl. The coating is not the best and the bar began to rust a little despite having it for almost just a year. The center knurl should be replaced with a ghost center. Overall, great bar!

Absolutely Brilliant Barbell
Perfect WL Barbell. Absolutely Gorgeous. I'll start with the single 'con', which is that the sleeves themselves are slightly thicker than other barbells, only noticeable if you have bumpers with metal insides in a small garage gym. Loud scraping noise. (Basically turn the volume of putting plates onto the bar up to 11) This barbell has a dark silver cerakote finish, and is absolutely stunning. I look forward to using it every session. The spin is spot on, less free rotation than the standard WL bar but smoother, which makes it feel well built. The center knurling is softer (less aggressive) than the outer grip knurling, so won't be an issue unless you have protruding collar bones. The grip knurling is brilliant, not painful, and I find less need for chalk with this bar. Whip is great on contact and in dipping motions. Rogue and IWF logos look dope, and obviously the quality lives up to those accreditations. As you'd expect with cerakote finishes, this bar is needing less maintenance which is great. I brush the knurling every session and wipe down the bar some 3-in-1 oil lightly every other week for my own piece of mind. Something I regretted not doing with my old Rogue WL bar. I would 10/10 recommend this beauty!

Fantastic bar
Purchased this bar the day that the gyms started to shut for lockdown; being used to training on great equipment for powerlifting, I expected the same standard for my switch to weightlifting and I haven't been disappointed at all There is great whip for the classic lifts, but not enough on movements such as squats or pulls to make you feel unsteady during the lift - a really good balance The knurling is sharp but forgiving. I am very prone to tearing calluses but haven't had any issues using this bar. The IWF branding is a nice aesthetic touch to an overall great bar, I'd definitely recommend to other home gym starters
