Additional Details
Continuing to innovate and always providing the customer with premium strength training tools, Black Iron Strength® takes the adjustable barbell to a new pinnacle with the Adjustable Barbells - Poles Apart®. The Adjustable Barbells - Poles Apart® is the only commercial grade adjustable barbells on the market and has four US patents that have been awarded.
There are three issues with other Adjustable Barbells on the market. First of all, other Adjustable Barbells are not commercial grade barbells and are not suitable for commercial use. The Black Iron Strength® Adjustable Barbells are the only true commercial grade adjustable barbells on the market. They are also the only Adjustable Barbells made in the USA. These Barbells are manufactured to the same ‘specs’ as our Black Iron Strength® Solid Steel Conventional Barbells to include one-piece construction in which there are no welds or bolts. This one-piece construction is accomplished through proprietary technology using a 25 ton press-through, making Black Iron Strength® Solid Steel Barbells virtually indestructible. The only difference between the Black Iron Strength® Solid Steel Adjustable Barbells and Black Iron Strength® Solid Steel Conventional Barbells is the Adjustable Barbells have a receiving end on each barbell face, which allows the user to attach add-on weights.
Another issue with other Adjustable Barbells on the market is that the plate adjustments are not totally secure and can easily fall off, especially if the barbells are dropped because the securing mechanisms are weak and can be broken. This is a hazard to the user and a potential lawsuit to a commercial or athletic facility. This is never an issue with Black Iron Strength® Adjustable Barbells because of the Poles Apart® Patented Technology, in which the add-on weights are secured with a dual magnetic system providing 80 lbs. of securing force. Magnetic add-on weights are easily removed by simply rotating the add-on weight clockwise or counter clockwise until the magnets cross on the barbell head. The magnets on the add-on side are mounted in reverse polarity to the magnets on the barbell head. Once these magnets cross, the add-on weight will come off into the user’s hand.
Finally, all of other the Adjustable Barbells on the market do not have the ‘look and feel’ of a traditional barbell. Black Iron Strength® Adjustable Barbells not only have the ‘look and feel’ of traditional barbells, but also, Black Iron Strength® Adjustable Barbells are commercial grade dumbbells and can withstand heavy use to include dropping the dumbbell.
Like all Black Iron Strength® products, our Adjustable Barbells are manufactured in the USA to the tightest standards with the highest quality materials available. The finish on our Adjustable Barbells is a military ‘spec’ hard chrome, which is highly resistant to rust or corrosion. This is the top finish in the world.
With the Black Iron Strength® Adjustable Barbells, the users have the flexibility of 2.5 lb. incremental jumps throughout the entire weight range. This feature makes the set very popular with users who are looking for small incremental changes.
Engraving
Custom engraving is available on the head of the barbells. Personalization makes your barbells stand out and brands your team or facility. Our engraving is precision cut quality. Provide us your logo in a vector file in ‘.ai’ (Adobe Illustrator) or ‘.eps’ (Encapsulated Post Script) and we will do ‘mock up’ drawings of your logo on your dumbbell faces.
Custom Racks
One of the most innovative aspects of the Poles Apart® – Adjustable Barbells is the vertical space efficient design of the rack system, which is 5 feet wide and 3 feet deep. The rack design is vertical instead of horizontal. The vertical design is more cost effective, especially if the user is paying rent by the square foot. Owners do not pay rent for going vertical, but they do pay rent for horizontal racks because the footprint is much larger from side to side. The Black Iron Strength Adjustable Barbells - Poles Apart®have become popular in many elite personal training facilities and home gyms, especially with pro athletes because of its space efficiency and the fact that the user is exercising with commercial grade barbells.
