What Makes It Special
We slimmed our proven American Press Bar by 3 inches and pushed the sleeve stops 2 inches outward. The result is the American Thin Press™ line—built for lifters who want rock-solid bar control and natural angled grips that keep wrists and shoulders happy.
Why Choose the Angled Grip
- Eight Pressing Options – Four widths (7", 16.5", 24", 30") plus forward or reverse angles double your setup choices.
- Natural Wrist Alignment – The angled handles let your elbows and shoulders move pain-free under heavy loads.
- Reverse-Grip Ready – Flip the bar for underhand presses without wrist strain.
- More Range of Motion – Thinner bar lets you sink triceps extensions deeper and clear your face on overhead presses.
- Plays Nice with Modern Racks – Wider rackable zone keeps plates away from 3×3 posts and bench cups.

FAQ
Why isn’t there knurling on the handles?
These bars have a textured powder coat that gives a good grip. Adding knurling would significantly raise the price because we make the bars in small batches. If demand grows, we may add knurling later.
Do the sleeves spin?
No. Spinning sleeves would also raise costs and are unnecessary for the pressing and rowing moves this bar is made for. A solid sleeve keeps the bar strong and the price fair.
How do pre-orders work?
Your card is charged at checkout, saving your spot in line and allowing us to build your bar. You can cancel before the bar ships for a full refund.
