how thick is the bar?

Comfortable human grip. Similar to a dumbell bar. I did not measure mine, but my thumb and forefinger can touch. The foamaterial is quite squishy, bit it is easy to hold and grips well.

Depending on the weight of the bar, the diameters range from 1.5-2 inches, roughly the same as an empty paper towel roll.

It's just as thick as the bars used in gyms such as Lucille Roberts and New York Sports Club. I really can not tell the difference between the bar and the bars used at those gyms.

It's 1/8" thick. My door will not close with it up there but I don't really care. It doesn't lay flat.

Each bar is 5 feet. I have bought cheaper versions before and they always collapse after a while. This one has held up and it is pretty sturdy. I'd recommend.

To the outside edge ... 3 1/2"To the inside edge of the bar 2 1/2" I was concerned it might come out "too far" when I opened it but actually it has proven to be just right. The hardware pretty well adjusts to fit any area you might need to place the bar (in my case vertical placement).

It's about 1/16" thick. There are little nubs that stick out about 1/8. It is working well for me. It is somewhat flexible but seems to come back to flat.

At least four inches. Too thick for me. I just could not get used to it. I have a friend who loves hers.. Go figure!

2" standard Olympic bar. Little snug but graphite or grease took care of it for me.

I just measured it and it is 1/4 " thick which I think is quite adequate. Also, I find the legs very sturdy. I'm very happy with my cocktail table. Just have the glass cleaner handy.

Ok; answering my own question but posting as a response to another... 3/8" thick.

It's about 1/2 - 3/4" thick. Easily bendable. I love it. Hung a furniture rug from it for sound proofing a corner audio set up.

I would say about 2 inches but it doesn't take away from the length of the bar. It is still the length it says.

I would assume less than half an inch (very small space between bars). At most, possibly 1/2 an inch.

I'm not sure of the thickness..maybe 3/4 to an 1 inch. We've had it over the year at our office and it gets used daily. Been very happy with it's ruggedness and play. The bar protectors are very useful as well.

Its a very nice bar. I have just average hand size. I cant say the exact diameter but it feels just slightly larger than the other Olympic bar I have. I really like it. Hope this helps. I just lift in my basement by the way so I'm not in a gym setting. Perfect for me.

about 1/8th inch, kinda thin but after you put it together it gets stronger

Yes, make sure the gauge of the bar is thick enough if not solid and properly secured.
