These are the results of the men's horizontal bar competition, one of eight events for male competitors in artistic gymnastics at the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal. The qualification and final rounds took place on July 18th, 20th, and 23rd at the Montreal Forum.

Results

Qualification

Ninety-one gymnasts competed in the compulsory and optional rounds on July 18th and 20th. The six highest scoring gymnasts advanced to the final on July 23rd. Each country was limited to two competitors in the final. Half of the points earned by each gymnast during both the compulsory and optional rounds carried over to the final. This constitutes the "prelim" score.
