Why Choose a Dedicated Squat Bar?
A squat bar goes beyond what's merely sufficient—it's designed to make your heavy lifts more stable, secure and efficient. Here's why investing in a purpose-built squat bar can elevate your training.
Our squat bar features a 32mm shaft diameter paired with aggressive full knurling, providing a larger contact surface across your upper back. This increased grip area minimizes bar slippage and enhances bar control throughout the movement—especially under heavy loads.
Crafted from ultra-stiff, whip-resistant steel, this bar is engineered for maximum stability. Its rigidity even surpasses traditional 29mm power bars, making it ideal for serious strength athletes. The 2400mm total bar length and 425mm loadable sleeves offer ample room for heavier weight plates and smoother racking, reducing distractions and improving overall confidence during lifts.
Built for powerlifters and advanced lifters, the ATE Squat Bar is the ultimate tool for heavy squats, delivering superior balance, bar security and training performance.
The 1.5mm Volcano Knurl with the IPF knurl mark makes the ATE Squat Barbell suitable for all national competitions and training. It comprises the ATE signature bushing system.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a squat bar and how is it different from a normal barbell?
A squat bar is a heavier, stiffer specialty bar made specifically for heavy back squats. The ATE Squat Bar has a thick 32 mm shaft (vs a 28-29 mm standard bar), is fully knurled for a larger grip surface across your upper back, is longer at 2400 mm, and has zero whip - so the load stays rock-stable on your back. It weighs 25 kg rather than 20 kg.
Why does a squat bar have a 32mm shaft and full knurling?
The thicker 32 mm shaft makes the bar stiffer than even a 29 mm power bar, so it doesn't oscillate under heavy loads, and the aggressive full knurling grips your upper back and hands to stop the bar sliding during maximal squats - giving better balance, security and confidence.
Is the ATE Squat Bar good for powerlifting and heavy training?
Yes. It's built for powerlifters and advanced lifters: a 200,000 PSI no-whip bar with a 1.5 mm volcano knurl, IPF-4 knurl marks, a centre knurl and 6 self-lubricating bronze bushings - the ultimate tool for heavy squats, also usable for deadlifts and good mornings.
How much does the squat bar weigh and how long is it?
The ATE Squat Bar weighs 25 kg, is 2400 mm long with 425 mm loadable sleeves, and supports a 2000 lb (about 900 kg) max load - the extra length and sleeve room make racking and heavy plate loading easier.
