Standard Trap Bar

This product is currently discontinued as it was the only specialist bar in our range made for "standard" plates so we've decided to limit custom made bars to OLYMPIC plate loading ends only.

This product is currently unavailable to order.

GymRatZ Standard Trap Bar

GymRatZ Trap Bar Review:

The Gerrard Trap Bar as it was known - was originally invented and patented in a rhomboid (Diamond) shape.

With a few modifications to the shape (primarily adding a couple of extra sides) it doesn't breach the copyright of the original design. This means we are now able to bring this marvelous piece of equipment to you the way it was intended.

The extra 2 sides make the modified Trap Bar more "roomy" giving the user plenty of space to perform deadlifts and shrugs with great ease.
Made in the UK by a top class gym equipment manufacturer, it is fabricated to the highest specification to ensure your pleasure and satisfaction.

Heavy duty Black powder coated finish ensures your Trap Bar remains in perfect condition, and has a long and active life.

Like many things, here at Gym RatZ we strive only to bring you the highest quality goods at the best prices. We don't sell gimmicks, just top quality effective products at the best prices

***Pete's Extra Review***
I have just tried this device in the shop with a customer who was looking for some way of training legs at home without a spotter, and to say he was impressed is an understatement.
If you allow the weighted bar to travel up and down your body in a natural line, with your feet together, the trap bar hits your quads beautifully. Move the bar so you are lifting it with the weight held further forward, (in front of your shins) and you have a killer lower back exercise, equivalent to deadlifts. In fact, after loading the bar up and doing a couple of sets each, my customer walked out with an Olympic Trap Bar in tow.

I guess that says something about it.

NOTE: The Standard Trap Bar is a made-to-order item which has a typical lead time of around 4 weeks or so depending on fabrication workload at time of ordering.

NOTE WELL: There has been a big influx of cheap Chinese imported trap bars in Olympic size. These cheap bars are often made of hollow chromed tube and usually have raised "handles" they are rated as Home or Light Commercial which again means they are NOT suitable for heavy lifting. Our standard trap bars and Olympic trap bars are all made of solid steel, powder coated, MADE IN ENGLAND and ALL rated for full commercial gym use.

We wouldn't put our name to inferior products. Why would you want to train with them?

For use with standard (1") plates only (sold separately).

Made in England for GymRatZ since 1999.

Superb bar. As I opened the packaging it had an immediate look of quality with an excellent black powder coated finish. In my first workout I found it to be excellently weighted & balanced. I bought the Trap Bar for its anatomical benefits & it has been a truly excellent investment compounded by the quality of the bar. I can't rate it 10/10 yet as I have not put a copious amount on it thus far! If you Deadlift, GET ONE!
