Sergio Azevedo: Great

Shane: Fast and easy to clamp, but will not hold the weights if you use on a barbell with a tilt. I only have 45 lbs on each side and a slight tilt while lifting off the floor caused the weights to slide right off my 1" barbell.

DavidDavid: Obviously not for dumbells, dont be that guy.

I've been using them for a few days now on my barbell in the garage. I use them for rows, deadlifts, and squats. Works great. I just needed something to keep my different sized plates from wiggling thier way apart when I lift. These work great.

I like the bright colors too, I can't really lose them being bright green.

E. A. Jacques: I bought these for my 1" diameter easy curl bar. I am a little old school and was still using the older style collars with a bolt and t-handle that are slow to get on and off and often work lose. That can be frustrating when you are in then middle of a set and the weights start to separate or clang. I was looking for a set of collars that have and angle bolt, which I also have that work much better but still take time to get on and off, and came across these.

I was a little skeptical since in my experience bar diameters can vary slightly. I did not want to have a collar that was hard to get on and off or where the locking mechanism was real hard to engage. I was surprised at how easy these are to engage and how well they hold. The rubber inside is spongy enough to allow the collar to be sized right so it does not get hung up and yet can compress easily enough to not require a ton of effort and yet still hold very well. They are also very well made. Even though they are light the material used and the build quality are excellent.

I have had a home gym and been working out for over 45+ years so I have seen my way around a lot of gym equipment and have nothing but the...

Amazon Customer: Not saying these aren’t perfect for their use but people with long nails (fake or real) beware when opening and closing these!! They can be stiff and hard to open which has resulted in me bending nails, breaking nails and breaking skin with my nails :(
Just a warning to the people who love their long nails! Love the pink tho.

D: This is definitely nitpicking, but I didn't realize there was an extra step in removing these clips from the bar. There's a little safety you have to press while opening the clip at the same time, which makes it impossible to open with one hand. They're well-made though, so it is what it is.

adam prince: I bought these for my single dumbbell set that uses a threaded collar. Company claims these fit 1" bars including threaded but, some reviews claim the hold on threaded wasn't strong enough, thought I'd try for myself. Reviews were right, heavier weight pushes the collars off. I suspect the threaded bars are slightly smaller. These are wider than the threaded collars so take up more room but, are quick and easy to use. Seam like good construction at a reasonable price and shipped on time unfortunately, I won't be using them when I use heavier weight.

Jason: So much better than wire clips. Easy to use, inexpensive, you can't go wrong with these. I ended up buying 2 sets so I can also use these with barbell handles.

My only complaint is that these use a rubber like material to grip onto the bar; on deadlifts these clamps start to walk out. This is not a big deal though on a barbell. We'll see how well they grip on a dumbbell.
