Description
Overview
The Crossbar Fibreglass 4.5m is a standard high jump bar from the Vinex range, made of fibreglass with stable square ends. It is the consumable part of a high jump set up: stands last for years, while bars take the knocks, so schools often keep a spare.
It pairs with the Vinex High Jump Stands Pair for school meets and with the High Jump Stand Competition for club events. Check the bar length your stands are designed to hold before ordering.
Key benefits
- Sits squarely on the stand pegs thanks to stable square ends.
- Springs back after knocks rather than denting, being fibreglass.
- Full 4.5 m length spans standard high jump stands.
- Backed by the store's 12-month guarantee.
Who it's for
This bar suits intermediate and secondary schools running athletics days, and clubs that need a replacement or spare bar for training and competition. It is a full-length bar, so it belongs with full-size stands rather than a junior set.
If you are starting a high jump programme from scratch, look at the wider high jump category, where stands, bars and landing mats can be added to a single quote.
Care, safety and set-up
Store the bar flat or supported along its length, not leaning in a corner, and keep it out of the sun between meets. Replace a bar that has cracked or lost its shape.
Because of its length, the crossbar ships as freight. Freight is quoted after you order, and our team can combine it with stands or mats to keep the cost down.
Frequently asked questions
Does this bar fit my stands?
It is a 4.5 m standard bar with square ends. Check the bar length and end type your stands accept; the Vinex High Jump Stands Pair and High Jump Stand Competition are the matching stands in the range.
Is it sold as a single bar?
Yes, the listing is for one crossbar. Many schools order two so a spare is on hand for athletics day.
How is it delivered?
As a long item it goes by freight, which is quoted after ordering rather than charged at the standard rate. Orders generally dispatch the same or next business day.
