VMFTS1 inch Barbell Collar Dumbbell Collars Quick Released Barbell Locking Collar Clamps s for Weightlifting Pro Crossfit Training

The bar I have came with the spring clips. After years of use, the clips seem to be harder to use. I wanted to replace them with something else and found these. I am very pleased with the ability to remove/replace them to the bar in order to change the weights.

This product is clearly superior to the screw-on collars usually supplied with lifting bars. They are very easy to use and to exchange during workouts. My only complaint is that they should fit the bar more snugly. This is not a major complaint and I would recommend this product over other clips that I've used.

First off, this seller is great. They ship very fast and pack the items well. Whereas they are fantastic, the product gets 2 stars because it is not safe. When it arrived, I was happy how it fit both my threaded and non-threaded standard bars. I attached them to brand-new threaded dumbbell bars and warmed up with light weights (8.8 lb plates), the weight came off and hit the floor. I thought it was user-error because they appeared so secure, so I carefully reattached everything. Later in the workout, using the same weights for a slow concentrated hammer curl set, the weight fell off again and smashed to the floor. Thank goodness my cats were not around or injured, or my feet or my flooring. It troubled me knowing that just earlier I did skull crushers with them and it didn't happen over my face. I'm lucky. So many bad things could have happened. I simply returned them and was quickly issued a refund. The reason I didn't give the product 1 star is because the problem seems haphazard - some, not all the clamps were bad. Maybe it was a bad batch, who knows. But in the end, safety comes first and in my estimation, this is not a safe product. I don't think its worth the risk and I've been lifting for decades.

These little things are fantastic! No more of those impossible spring-loaded collars that I can hardly move. These are so smooth and easy to put on and take off, and they hold good and tight. Can't say I run across perfect products every day, but these are absolutely flawless,

These little collars/clamps are pretty basic and work as advertised. But considering they're plastic I was wondering if they'd be cheap little things that might only last a few weeks. I was pleasantly surprised to see they've got a little heft to them and they seem pretty rugged. It's only been about 10 days, so durability or longevity is unknown, but I can say that for $8 I'm quite satisfied with the purchase.

I have 8 different standard bars: 4 are 1.00" diameter, 4 are 1.06" diameter.The VMFTS 1" Quick Release Locking Collar Clamps slide on and off the 1.00" bars, but too small for the 1.060" bars.I do not throw or drop the weights, and the clamps are holding for me.I intend to start letting young people use them, to see how well they hold with more exhuberant lifters.If that goes well, I will buy 2 more pair.I would like to find Quick Release Collar Clamps for the 1.06" bars.

They work great, unfortunately, my bars measure in at .950". I was able to glue some 1/16" rubber gasket material to one of the pads in each of my clamps. You can find that stuff in the plumbing section of your local hardware. Works great now, with no fear of dropping a bunch of plates on my face.

work excellently

These collars are made of a very strong plastic, and lock pretty well on a 1-inch spindle style barbell... I've only used them a few times, but I don't get any 'walk out'. My problem is the price... I found a pack of 2 of these here on Amazon for $9.83, with a choice of different colours, too! Shop around on this app first before you buy, because this price is a bit of a rip off, IMHO...

These clamps work well. We have both smooth and threaded barbells and these hold better than spring clamps on the threaded bars. Would recommend.

These collars will hold your plates on but don't expect them to be snug on 1" threaded bars. I'm not too surprised as a threaded bar will have less surface for the collar clamp to make contact. I just don't like spinning, wobbly plates while performing a set. Too distracting. I decided to do a once wrap around on the bar with electrical tape (Hockey/sports tape may work as well). See my picture. The layer of tape makes the bar thicker and the collar clamp more snug. The tape has a second bonus in that the plates aren't so loud when pulling on/off. A plus when you live in an apartment and you're doing early morning workouts.

Great purchase !

Decent but does not cut it for heavier weights. When you have 40-50lbs on each side of the dumbell, the collars can shift quite a bit and require adjustment after every set. A little scary for something you lift over your face.
