Product Description

Deceptively Simple Grip Training

Featuring the same over-sized 1.9” outside diameter as the standard Rogue Axle, the Stubby Axle is two feet shorter (5’ vs. 7’)—with 8” of loadable sleeve length and a condensed 43” between the collars. This creates a challenging, change-of-pace fat bar, and another excellent option for building better wrist and grip strength without deviating much from your regular lifting regimen.

Rogue Stubby Axle

Deceptively Simple Grip Training

Featuring the same over-sized 1.9” outside diameter as the standard Rogue Axle, the Stubby Axle is two feet shorter (5’ vs. 7’)—with 8” of loadable sleeve length and a condensed 43” between the collars. This creates a challenging, change-of-pace fat bar, and another excellent option for building better wrist and grip strength without deviating much from your regular lifting regimen.

The Rogue Stubby Axle has been battle tested in competition at The CrossFit Games, and includes our signature black powder coat finish for a firm, comfortable grip.

IMPORTANT: Some standard barbell collars may not work on this specialty bar. We recommend using Axle Collars with this barbell.

Another great piece of gear from Rogue + a caveat-
Received my Stubby Axle bar today and it's exactly what I wanted/needed. I would give (5) stars if it weren't for shipping damage to the flanges that others have called out... Seems like it would be really easy to add some type of layer of extra cardboard for protection. Love it anyway-

Bar
Great bar, it has a slightly different feel, and I can feel my grip getting stronger due to the thicker width of the bar.

Love it but beat up from shipping
Love the stubby and its thick diameter but it was pretty beat up and scratched when I recieved it. Rogue sticker was not center and not straight at all as well. Besides some cosmetic issues, this is a fantastic piece of equipment to add to the gym.

Great axle, poor packaging
It’s a great axle. Like others have said it was poorly packed. Rogue hasn’t fixed this known problem.

Not the quality I expected from Rogue
I have purchased multiple barbells from Rogue over time and never had one arrived damaged. Today the box came clearly warn down and the barbell itself is damaged, I'm not sure if they sent me one that was damaged but I was under the impression they had pretty good quality control.

$25 for shipping and my bar was damaged
My fat bar arrived in a box that was pretty beat up, but to be fair to the delivery service, there was zero packaging inside the box, just the bar!! When you pay $25 for shipping, there should be some packaging in the box to protect the product. Not impressed at all. My normal collars and spring clips do not fit this bar, and I’m trying to find them anywhere else but Rogue so I don’t have to pay for shipping for my products to possibly be damaged.

Shipping Price Not worth it
I've accepted that when you live on the west coast of the US, if you purchase from Rouge you will pay to have things shipped to you. I just received this bar and it was damaged due to not being packed properly. I'm not very happy with this.
