The gold standard (get it?) in both performance and aesthetics, this bar isn’t just a pretty face! Coated with a titanium finish through an advanced titanizing process, The Midas Barbell is super strong and designed to last, while turning heads.
Titanium Coating: The crazy gold finish of the Midas Barbell comes from a premium titanium coating process called Titanizing. Titanizing involves the application of a titanium nitride layer resulting in an exceptionally hard-wearing and corrosion-resistant barbell. The titanizing process significantly enhances the durability and longevity of the bar while also resulting in this stunning gold colour. It will withstand the toughest conditions and workouts while also making you look cool.
Olympic Specifications: Available in both a 15kg (women’s) and 20kg (men’s) option, The Midas Barbell meets full Olympic specifications. Whether you're training for competition or just aiming to set new personal records, this bar has you covered.
High-Quality Needle Bearings: Each sleeve of The Midas Barbell is equipped with four high-quality needle bearings, providing a smooth and reliable spin. Needle bearings are superior for dynamic lifting exercises (like Cleans, Jerks, and Snatches) because they offer minimal friction and enable a more efficient transfer of power compared to bars with bushings.
Precision Crosshatch Knurling: The Midas Barbell is finished with a precision crosshatch machine-knurled knurling to provide the perfect balance of grip and comfort. This type of knurling ensures a secure grip without being too aggressive on the hands and causing calluses and discomfort during high-repetition or heavy lifting sessions.
This bar is built to last even in the varying (but normally humid) weather conditions we have here in New Zealand. Titanium nitride is known for its extreme hardness and ability to resist scratches, wear, and corrosion. The enhanced corrosion resistance of the titanium nitride layer protects the bar from rust and degradation, ensuring that it remains in excellent condition despite high humidity levels. This means your Midas Bar will maintain its shiny gold appearance and superior functionality over time — even with heavy use.
The 15kg and 20kg Midas Barbell is compatible with our entire range of weight plates and barbell collars.
