Rubber, by its very nature, is tough and durable. All products made from rubber have a distinct smell, including rubber coated weights. The smell will generally dissipate over time; however, some individuals are more sensitive to the odor.
XMark's 7' 3817-BLACK Olympic bar with brass bushing and a hefty 500 lb weight capacity is built solid. The 28mm black manganese phosphate coating on the shaft of the 3817 bar provides unbeatable hardness and abrasion protection and has a medium knurling. All it takes to protect your investment is a couple of minutes and wiping down your bar regularly with a light coat of a 3-in-1 oil.
