What is the QPQ finish on the sleeves of your Cerakote bars?
The QPQ coating on the sleeves of the Catahoula offers a combination of hardness, corrosion resistance, and smooth finish, making it a great choice for enhancing performance and longevity.

What is meant by the "volcano" knurling pattern?
The volcano is a specific texture or pattern etched onto the surface of the barbell. The medium volcano knurling provides a good compromise between aggressive and mild textures.

Is there an advantage in purchasing a bar with needle bearings?
Bars with needle bearings are noted for their smoother rotation, enhanced performance, durability, reduced maintenance, and high-quality construction.

Is this bar compatible with standard weights?
This bar fits bumper plates and Olympic plates with a 2" insert.

How do I take care of my barbell?
To maintain your barbell's longevity and performance, regularly wipe it down with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to remove sweat, chalk, and debris. This helps prevent rust and keeps the knurling clean.
