Black Series Short Steel - 6.5 Star Difficulty
Choose options
The Black Series is manufactured from Black Mild Steel. Providing a great challenge at a great price, these bars are ideal for volume training. The Black Series provide a similar level bend to the GOG series, but are easier to snap.
Each one of our pieces of short steel is hand cut, deburred and labeled. Deburring leaves a nice safe, smooth finish on the ends of the steel.
This bar is rated at 6.5 Star Difficulty which is ideal for elite level steel bending.
- Bend Difficulty: 6.5/7
- Snap Difficulty: 6.5/7
- Overall Rating: 6.5/7
When bending black mild steel, the outer layer will crumble under the force and let off some 'powder'. There is no harm in this but be sure to bend / snap in a place you don't mind getting a little grubby.
