Different bars weight different amounts. From ranges of 25lbs-30lbs-40lbs-45lbs and some exceptions can be higher than those ranges as well.

45 pounds

While the standard weight of a bench press bar is 45 pounds, there are options for those who are not able to complete the exercise with the standard bar. Another bar that is commonly seen in fitness gyms is 33 pounds and offers a thinner grip section for those with smaller hands.
