Rogue Jammer Pull-Up Bar
The Jammer Pull-Up Bar system has a standard 1.125″ diameter pull-up bar that is entirely customizable to meet your preferred look and feel. All bars are available in a smooth or knurled texture and can be chosen in standard textured black, stainless steel, or any Cerakote color coatings. Cerakote is a versatile ceramic-composite coating initially popularized in the firearm industry for its exceptional sturdiness even in thin applications. The knurled bar emphasizes a sleek center part that is 17.4″ wide, with dual knurl marks on each end that meet the spacing on standard Olympic and Powerlifting barbells.
The knurl pattern is sturdy enough for a robust and non-abrasive grip. The Rogue Jammer Pull-Up Bar rises above any door frame on a wood stud wall and lets you combine your fitness lifestyle with your everyday home or work life in a new way. The Jammer Pull-Up Bar system is built in the USA with US steel and uses 0.375″ thick laser-cut steel brackets, 43″ (Stringer) long (8.875” tall) with Rogue branding. The bar extends out 7”, on center, from the mounting surface, while the brackets extend 8.25” after the setup.
