For those who are concerned about the grooves or damaged plates.
First of all... if you use cast iron plates there's nothing to worry about.
If you use rubber plates, just buy a roll of electrical tape and wrap the 2" end pieces.
Smooth as silk afterwards and 100% protection.
Also... if you want to step it up, use a hex key allen wrench, take both ends off and grease the sleeves.
Put it back together and you've got yourself a "top of the line" Olympic bar at a bargain price.
See picture: (everything black has been wrapped with electrical tape)

Comments on Walmart say the barbell is not smooth but grooved and will damage plates overtime. So the pictures are misleading per usual.

Even if you have bumpers, if they have a metal center ring you'll be fine.

Don't know how in the world they can ship that awkward thing out to the boonies where I live for $48 and make a profit. Walmart want's ten bucks if I add dish powder to my order.
Oh well, their problem to figure out how to make a profit now that I've ordered. Replacing my rusty barbell. Finally a 45 pounder and not a temu barbell.
