Horizontal Bar, Men

Date	5 – 10 September 1960 — 15:00
Status	Olympic
Location	Terme di Caracalla, Roma
Participants	130 from 28 countries

As with all apparatus formats in 1960, this was a new format, with the all-around competition serving as a qualifying round for the final, with the top six performers advancing to the final round, where they again performed a compulsory and optional exercise to determine final placements. Takashi Ono was the defending gold medalist and again won the gold medal in Rome. His teammate Masao Takemoto won silver after he had won a bronze medal on horizontal bar in Melbourne, while Borys Shakhlin won the bronze medal in Rome. Five of the six finalists were from Japan or the Soviet Union, joined by Yugoslav Miroslav Cerar, who finished in a tie for fifth.
