ROGUE 45LB OHIO POWER BAR - AGGRO

The AGGRO™ variations of our 45LB Ohio Power Bar are designed for lifters who want an even more aggressive knurl than the standard model. There are two options to choose from (2x AGGRO and 3x AGGRO), each utilizing advanced precision tooling to re-create the geometry of the original knurl pattern with added depth and more prominent peaks:

Loading

*WARNING: The 3x AGGRO is our most aggressive knurl to date, and one of the sharpest and least forgiving on the market. Anyone unsure of their tolerance level should avoid this option. Returns will NOT be accepted on the basis of any pain or discomfort caused by the knurling itself.

Both AGGRO Power Bars are manufactured in Columbus, Ohio, utilizing the same steel we developed for the world famous Elephant Bar, and featuring the same 200,000 PSI tensile strength shaft as the standard Ohio Power Bar. The design also includes quality bronze bushings, 16.25” of loadable sleeve length, and Cerakote branding on each side of the center knurl. By using stainless steel for the shaft and sleeves, we’re able to give the customer the true, uncompromised feel of the extra aggressive knurl, while also adding the benefits of superior oxidation resistance.

A Note on Bar Cleaning: Rogue recommends using a synthetic bristle brush, NOT a steel brush, to clean a stainless steel shaft. Using steel on stainless steel can contaminate the stainless steel and cause rusting. See more tips here: Bar Care & Maintenance.

AGGRO KNURLING
1

AGGRO KNURLING

With these AGGRO variations, we’ve been able to increase the depth and coarseness of the Ohio Power Bar knurling without sacrificing the knurl geometry that we are known for. Our tooling has been specially designed so that we can have an extremely repeatable knurl with a more aggressive feel that looks as good as it grips. Available in your choice of two designs: 2x AGGRO or 3x AGGRO. Be Advised: The 3x is NOT intended for anyone unsure about their preferences or pain threshold; be sure to reference the comparison photos to get a sense of the extreme difference in the knurl of these bars vs. the standard version. (All bars include a center knurl).

STAINLESS STEEL
2

STAINLESS STEEL

No finish offers better oxidation resistance than stainless steel. By leaving the shaft and sleeves of the AGGRO bars uncoated, we’re also able to give the athlete the true feel of the extra aggressive knurl. As noted, we recommend using a synthetic bristle brush, NOT a steel brush, to clean a stainless steel shaft.

200,000 PSI TENSILE STRENGTH
3

200,000 PSI TENSILE STRENGTH

The AGGRO Ohio Power Bar’s 29MM diameter stainless steel shaft has a tensile strength of 200,000 PSI, delivering superior rigidity and virtually zero whip/flex. Machined and assembled in Columbus, Ohio, the bar also features a snap-ring design and quality bronze bushings for a smooth, consistent feel.

CERAKOTE BRANDING
4

CERAKOTE BRANDING

We’ve included Cerakote branding on each side of the center knurl in a unique “photonegative” stencil style, with black Cerakote bringing out designs from the stainless steel. The Rogue logo is featured on one side, while the other introduces the AGGRO Monster, with his number of teeth indicating the aggressiveness of the knurl (2 teeth for 2x, 3 teeth for 3x).

LIFETIME WARRANTY
5

LIFETIME WARRANTY

The quality construction of the AGGRO Ohio Power Bar is backed by Rogue’s Lifetime Warranty against bending. This is a barbell equipped for high intensity, everyday use. Please Note: The warranty does not cover damage due to negligent or faulty use, alteration, maintenance, storage or handling by the user, 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.
Returns will NOT be accepted on the basis of an AGGRO bar’s knurling feeling more aggressive than the customer expected.

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.

If you're thinking about it buy it!
This is the nicest barbell I have put my hands on. I got the aggro 2x and the knurling is perfect. It's aggressive but not to the point it is painful. It sticks perfectly in your hands. The stainless is awesome. The sleeves are smooth and don't have deep machine marks which I prefer for ease of loading the bar. The stainless is awesome. I have used several rogue bars and own 3 now and this is the nicest bar I have put in my hands. Love this thing. I get excited to use it.

Worth Every Penny
I have been lifting for almost 50 years now, and this is unquestionably the best bar I have ever used. It's my third Rogue barbell, not counting specialty bars (one Ohio bar, one Ohio deadlift bar, and this one), and I am totally enthralled with it. The grip is insanely good. It is rough like a very rough sandpaper, but I loved it on deadlifts this morning, and I cannot wait to bench and squat with it next week. Very glad that I did not get the standard power bar, and especially glad that I did not go with the Aggro 3X. This one will do quite enough to toughen up my hands. Delivery was on time. Packaging was intact, and the bar was easy to remove if you use the right tools and take your time. And, the bar is beautiful. Love it. Highly recommended.

I love love LOVE this bar! 3XAGGRO is perfect.
I absolutely love this bar! I have the Rogue 2.0 and while it's a great bar, I needed more aggressive knurling to do an overhand grip on deadlifts. DO NOT be afraid of the 3XAGGRO...it's perfect! I'm so glad I didn't compromise with the 2X. I owned a Texas Power Bar before and the knurling is similar to that (maybe a bit more aggressive). But it's not the hand shredder that everyone says it is. I LOVE the stainless steel and build quality of the bar as well. I arrived in perfect condition and the bar was straight as an arrow. Oh, and I was also very worried about the weight being different from my Rogue 2.0 so I weighed them both multiple times. Each time I weighed them both bars came in at EXACTLY 44.4 lbs. I was very surprised that they were a dead on match. Hats off to Rogue for manufacturing to such exacting tolerances. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than others but I see this is a "buy it for life" bar. I can't see ever needing to replace it.

Bought 4 AGGRO bars.
I just bought 4 of these AGGRO barbells. 2 of the 2X and 2 of the 3X. These are awesome bars-! All 4 arrived in great condition. Great knurling on all, and no sleeve play either. These are for my large home gym. I tried to get them to throw in a free t-shirt, but they said “no”, so that was the only downside. Very happy in Michigan.

Do your research
Bar performance is solid. If you are looking for a perfect unblemished bar you will never find it. Mine even has a hairline visible in and through the reverse image cerakote finish proving it appeared while manufacturing but I’m not complaining and understand this is going to happen. I spent 500 not 5000. The shipping tube end cap was gone I mean not even present when delivered and the tube was split in the center and taped over by the shipping company. When delivered across my porch it gave the illusion that my bar was bent in half because of the damage to the tube and how warped the bar looked hanging off my steps , but this was just an optical illusion and bar survived. Otherwise I’m not complaining I’m just reporting my experience. I believe this is the last bar I will ever own. Grip has bite to it but not too abrasive. I got the Aggro 2X. It is perfect knurling. I think only a very elite group would ever want to seriously consider the 3X. It’s probably not for you and definitely more of a novelty purchase. But do your research. Maybe the hybrid OPB is better for you. Or a SS OPB. This one is my personal preference.

Excellent as expected.
Love this bar. It took a few uses to adjust to the knurling (bought the 2x aggro). The bar is exactly what I expected.
