'''Fire Bars''' (alternaitvely formatted as '''Fire-Bars''' and named '''Fire Traps''' or '''Fire Cogs''') (and sometimes known as '''Podoboo Cogs''') are rotating rods made of [[fireball]]s first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. They are found in numerous titles throughout the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. They are generally found in [[fortress]]es and act as dangerous obstacles that [[Mario]] must avoid in order to reach the goal.
Fire Bars were also given notable appearances in certain [[castle]]s of ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', which depicted them as swinging three-dimensionally. A three-dimensional Fire Bar depicted with eyes also appeared in [[Waluigi Stadium]] and [[Bowser's Castle (course)|Bowser's Castle]] course of ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''.
