The two I have are single knurl (weightlifting distance between them), 28mm shaft, spin well and came with a bunch of unbranded Ivankos so late 70s early 80s makes sense to me. I've only lifted with one of them a couple times as I have a bunch of other bars but it felt like it had a lot of whip on back squats, maybe because of the smaller diameter. The knurling feels great but I'm not sure what the finish is if there is any at this point.

Rustoleum is exactly what I thought it was, but you're right, it is hard to tell from a pic!
It doesn't necessarily matter a ton whether the plates are M series or not, but M series is a little nicer, and seems to be less common in unbranded plates. I want to say that they started machining surfaces toward the end of the "unbranded era", so it could tell you a little more about how old they are. Dumb.bell probably knows a lot more about them if you're really dying to know more.[]---[] Ivanko Barbell Crew #29 []---[]

Could that mean that the bar and unbranded ivanko 45lbs and 25lb I got, possibly be from the same set? The bar is single, haven't measured the shaft, but the sleeves are rusted to the shaft. I will have to "restore the bar". Any suggestions on how to do so? I used simply green on my york bar, which too alot of the rust off. Should I try to keep the black color on as much as possible or make it my mission to take the rust off regardless of how much bar coloring comes off?

You need a good rack, a bench, and a 300-lb Olympic weight set. Now, what was your question?

You've got hex screws on the donuts and inner collars. Those are clues. The donuts screw onto the bar. You want to use WD-40 to unfreeze the screws and donuts. If the sleeves don't come off, report back and we can help you figure out how to get them off. Post pics in the York thread and don't mess up that bar.

I just got a call from UPS saying that a pallet with 485lbs of rolled rubber flooring will be delivered today. Pictures will have to wait until I recover from moving all the equipment out of the gym, installing floor, putting gym back together. Moving the equipment twice is a workout for this old man!

Thanks! I wish all Rogue's urethane bumpers had that black/grey color scheme. Looks very clean. The higher weights are standard colors (green/yellow/blue/red) with black letters. They're just not as attractive, IMO. I still may pick them up one day..

Update to this earlier post. I finished moving the last of the equipment out of the weight room and removed the carpeting that was in there. UPS delivered the new Regupol rubber flooring about noon and fortunately the driver helped me get it up to the garage. Eight hours or so later there's 240sf of flooring down and ready for equipment. It's finished except for transition trim pieces for two doorways. The walls are a light gray and the floor is black with gray flecks.
