Open Hex Trap Bar 26kg

GravoMax Open Hex Trap Bar

The GravoMax Open Hex Trap Bar delivers the strength and stability of a traditional trap bar, but with more room to move.
First, the rear-open frame reduces interference with your legs and hips.
Then, because you can step through the open end, it becomes easier to train carries, lunges, and step-ups with a more natural movement path.
Finally, the one-piece welded build and 50mm Olympic sleeves keep loading stable for heavy lifting.

Why choose an open hex bar?

A closed hex bar can limit footwork and bump into your body during step-through movements.
However, an open hex bar removes the back frame.
As a result, you can step in and out smoothly and keep your stride clean.
For many lifters, that means better alignment, better comfort, and more exercise options beyond deadlifts.

What can you do with it?

• Trap bar deadlifts: stable pulling with a balanced center of load
• Farmer carries: step-through turns without frame interference
• Walking lunges: more clearance for stride and knee travel
• Step-ups: cleaner foot placement and smoother transitions
• Accessory pulls: controlled tempo training and variation work

Key features

• Open frame design: rear gap improves freedom of movement for lunges, carries, and step-through work
• Precision welded structure: durable joints for stable lifting under heavy loads
• One-piece integrated sleeves: fully welded sleeves keep plate loading stable and balanced
• Dual knurled handles: both handle heights feature 0.4mm knurling for a confident grip
• Premium black finish: electrostatic powder coat helps resist wear, chips, and sweat

How to use

1. Load plates evenly on both sleeves and secure with collars.
2. Choose your handle height (higher for easier starts, lower for longer range).
3. Step into the open frame, brace, and keep shoulders stacked over the handles.
4. Lift smoothly, then control the return to keep tension consistent.

💡 Tip: For lunges and carries, use the open end to step through and keep your stride natural.
