About American Barbell
American Barbell began building Gym Equipment in 1978 and our levels of manufacturing and quality have been apparent since day one. Our roots began an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the biggest names in the global fitness industry. Over the last 40 years, we have blazed a trail, creating the most notable innovations and industry firsts. Our list of accomplishments range from creating the first Hard Chrome Olympic Barbell (1998), the first Urethane Bumper Plate (2012), The first Cerakote Olympic Barbell (2016), high-strength and lightweight aluminum cable attachments, custom molded urethane weights and our industry leading, Series-1 Urethane dumbbell with patented Spline technology, to name a few.
