Rotating bars[1] are thin platforms in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. They are found only in Tick Tock Clock, where many are fastened to the walls near the player character's starting position. Eight Red Coins are scattered among the rotating bars, making them necessary to navigate for the mission Stop Time for Red Coins. Five more rotating bars can be found near the end of the path that must be taken for the mission Stomp on the Thwomp: Three of them lead to a mesh platform with a yellow block, and two of them break up the long bending platform a little farther up the clock.

Rotating bars are among the many platforms within Tick Tock Clock that rotate, turning clockwise. This makes them difficult to navigate without falling off. However, the clock face used to access Tick Tock Clock has moving hands that inform the speed of platforms when the player character enters the face. If the minute hand is near "12" when the player character enters the course, the rotating bars are motionless and parallel with the floor.
