I was surprised to learn that 1" barbell bars not necessarily 1" in diameter and there's a good chance that the clamps you order will not only not fit well but can be dangerous. This was the 3rd set of clamps I ordered, and, after 2 complete failures, these work beautifully. Construction seems rugged and durable, and they are easy to put on and adjust. They come with 3 different sizes of inner collars and are easy adjust and fine tune as necessary using built-in threaded bolts.

Product works as described. Affordable, easy on the budget

Finally, 1" collars that really hold. Probably not great for the mechanically challenged.

My first few days using these I was thrilled on how quick they were. The first day I received them there was a little bit of adjusting to get them clamped well on my threaded dumbbells. Most of the exercises those first few days were low weight (lateral raises) or movements in which the bar was horizontal thru the movement (regular curls). Then came hammer curl day. 17.5 lbs dropped off one of the bars on the first rep. The iron almost fell on my foot. I switched to the nut that came with the bar for the rest of the day. I played with the liners and screws on the clamps again and found a slightly tighter fit. The next day I lifted a 45lb dumbbell (20lbs each side) to my shoulder to start an overhead press. The way I lifted it was in a hammer curl movement. IRON WENT FLYING! It took me 5 minutes to find the BRIGHT YELLOW clamp in my garage.For context, my dumbbells/weight setup only allows 22.5lbs to fit on each side of the handle plus the metal nut that came with the bar. These clamps are a lot longer than the metal nut, so even though I left a 5lbs weight off each side of the bar for the hammer curl and 2.5lbs off for the press, the clamps were still hanging off the end. If I had to guess, the chrome on the bar is too smooth and the rubber liners of the clamp are too hard and thin to grip into the threads of the bar. The lowest weight setup I can go and have the clamp have max contact with the bar is 35lbs. I assume that may allow enough friction for the clamp to work. That is now the max weight I (sort of) trust these clamps, but I still avoid any movements that bring the bars vertical. I also find myself reaching for the metal nut by default now. The mental exercise of trying to figure out if this is a moment to use the clamps is just as frustrating as using the nut.I would not buy again. The clamps feel like the material of a kids toy you would find at a dollar store. Also, the benefit is mostly mental. When they work they do save 10-20 seconds per dumbbell when swapping weight, which can add up to a 2-4 minutes per workout session. That time was used to flip thru my phone for a few extra seconds during my wait between sets. That’s it! Four more minutes on my phone.

It works. Just don't unscrew it too far or it pops open. The plastic screw and nut made me wonder if it would last. But it does seem to hold once it is fitted to the bar it goes on.

Bought these to use as a support for my Fish Finders Transducer mount. They work better then expected.

It literally fell apart and the quality seems cheap. Don't waste your money. I was glad someone helped me borrow their clippers at the gym. Otherwise it would have impacted my workout and I wouldn't have been happy at all. So if you buy it, have a spare so you won't miss your workout trying to fix it.
