I need something more than my cheap bar that came with my power rack since it looked like it was at about 90% or more of what it could take without permanent damage. I racked it after a squat and it was bent pretty good for a few seconds and I'm sure anymore weight would have ruined it.

    We use to have some 55 lb. bars that were rated for a 1000 lb.limit. I haven't seen any in a while though. They were pretty good, they weren't so springy if you know what I mean.
