The aggressive 1.5 mm full-length knurling provides secure control on the back, while additional orientation rings help lifters position the bar consistently at every rep. Like every bar in the Riot range, it was designed in-house, including the wide, sword-and-torch-inspired sleeve collar shared with the Deadlift Bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e35 mm Squat Bar With Bronze Bushings And Hard Chrome Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHard chrome covers both the shaft and sleeves. The thin, dense coating follows the profile of the aggressive knurl closely, preserving a clear, secure grip while helping protect the steel against rust and abrasion during repeated heavy training. The same bright hard chrome finish is used on the sleeves throughout the Riot range. Calibrated competition bars in stainless steel, nickel and black chrome are separate models within the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach sleeve runs on a solid graphite-infused bronze bushing. Graphite particles embedded directly in the bronze create a permanent, self-lubricating bearing surface. Because the lubricant is held within the metal, it cannot dry out or wash away and does not require routine re-greasing over the working life of the squat bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with needle bearings, the bronze bushings rotate more slowly and with greater resistance. This produces calm, controlled sleeve rotation and helps limit plate swing and over-rotation during the descent and ascent of a heavy back squat. Less movement at the sleeves means less instability across the upper back under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Shaft Stiffness Controls Whip And Oscillation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 35 mm shaft is the thickest in the Riot range and is designed to minimise whip under heavy loads. Because resistance to bending increases sharply with shaft diameter, the additional 6 mm compared with a standard power bar makes this squat bar significantly stiffer. During a heavy back squat, the shaft remains stable across the shoulders throughout the descent and ascent, with minimal bounce, lag or oscillation. This controlled behaviour keeps the focus on the lift when stability is the priority. The Deadlift Bar uses a thinner shaft to produce the flex required for heavy pulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Riot bar uses the same identification system. The product name, weight and shaft diameter are laser-engraved on the inside face of the Sleeve Collar, keeping the specifications visible whether the bar is hung, stacked or stored collar-first in a rack. The end cap repeats the key details for quick identification. On this 25 kg squat bar, the cap is colour-coded red and displays the weight clearly, making it easy to select the correct bar.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Strength Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58829195149696,"sku":"BAR-RIOT-SQUAT-35MM-FULL","price":379.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/0222\/5661\/files\/BAR-RIOT-SQUAT-35MM-FULL-00.jpg?v=1788251236"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/0222\/5661\/collections\/Unbenannt-1_786x786_7f2f934d-6fba-46fb-8657-749f7eab964a.webp?v=1789988463","url":"https:\/\/www.strengthshop.co.uk\/collections\/speciality-bars.oembed","provider":"Strength Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
