There are a few obvious pieces to add to your arsenal when building your ideal home gym setup. A quality barbell, a good number of weight plates, and a bench or power rack to support your heavy lifts are all necessary. However, barbell collars are another must-have for creating a training environment that is safe, efficient, and ready for those PRs ahead. In this blog post, we'll go over the Bells of Steel Magnetic Clamp Collars and why you should have them in your home gym!
The Magnetic Clamp Collars are designed to complement Olympic barbells perfectly, as it has a sleeve diameter of 1.98 inches. Specialty sleeves like those on our Arch Nemesis Bar & Lever Arms are NOT compatible since they have a smaller 1.89″ diameter. These collars are made of plastic with an innovative rubberized interior. These collars protect your barbell from visible scratches and damage, ensuring your equipment remains in top condition. The rubberized interior provides a gentle yet firm grip on the barbell, effectively preventing slippage while preserving the bar's surface integrity. It doesn't only protect your bar but also protects you! 💪
The magnets on both sides provide convenience and flexibility during your workouts. The magnetic feature lets you position them anywhere on your rack and easily attach and detach them. It makes no difference which way you position them; the magnets will keep the collars in place, providing a hassle-free experience. Magnetic Clamp Collars have an easy-to-use clamp mechanism that makes securing and releasing them a breeze. Slip them on and off your barbell easily, saving you time and energy to put towards your workout.
Don't let the slim design fool you; these collars have more than enough locking power to keep your weights securely in place, ensuring a safe and efficient workout. They also save space when using bumper plates or loading up an Open Trap Bar. Now that we know the Magnetic Clamp Collars' features let's look at what benefits they can bring to your fitness routine.
