What is the bar made from?

It's wood with a grooved plastic covering which helps keep soft/slippery garments from sliding off.

I believe the slidebar itself is metal. The end pieces are heavy plastic that mount with steel screws and anchors. Note, this is NOT a safety bar, and should not be used as such.

I don't have one to look at but I believe it is alcohol based. I am not sure, sorry.

Because it is? It's a quality bar. I wouldn't worry about it. If it has any issues, you'll see them on the first use

The ends are capped. It's a very solid bar, and probably about the best you're going to get for this price range. My spring collars didn't fit it though, so I ended up buying some lock-jaw collars that, for the moment, seem good. If you ever outgrow this bar (doubtful) in the future, then you could check out bars from rogue fitness. They carry plenty of quality power and Olympic bars. This bar is probably all you'll ever need though.

Yes. The bar is wood but it has a small dowel in one end that has a spring. It is easy to load but holds firmly.

Actually, I just bought a replacement bar from Amazon, it was a WORX bar. As this bar was listed as discontinued by WORX, I was thrilled to have found one.

The bars are plastic, reasonably sturdy. I have set them up inside my house, and they hold up well. I have not used them outdoors yet, as there is too much mud in the yard from "you know who". Have to see how they hold up outside.

the jail bars are made of metal covered in plastic. They do not make a sound. My 3 cats love it.

The bars are plastic but quite durable. I had one get a little loose, but tucked a tiny bit of paper into the hole it slips into and it's held in there perfectly for a year!

This bar IS hollow. It is chrome plated steel with a knurled grip. Shipping weight is always more than product weight and may be rounded up.

The 4 bars are all the same length, around 16" long. There were no plastic parts that I can remember.

In the product description it says, "Made from type 430, 16 ga. stainless steel, these bars are twice as thick and will give you many years of reliable service."

It's made of plastic. It works well for beer and wine but not sure about chemicals.

It's pretty pliable metal, you remove the nut and bolt, wrap it around the bar, then reattach. Really simple!!

I just checked the packaging on a new bar of "Original." It does not state where it is made.

Made out of aluminum. Be careful, it comes apart after a couple of uses! I returned mind.
