Description

Functional and uncomplicated

Spring Collars are the classic among barbell collars. The principle is simple: squeeze together, slide on, release – the spring holds the plates on the bar. Our Spring Collars have comparatively long lever arms and wide grip surfaces. This makes opening easier than most other spring collars, even with training gloves or pumped forearms. For home gyms and as a backup set, they're a solid, proven solution.

Honest recommendation

Spring Collars do their job – but that's about it. Opening requires more force than Lock-Jaw collars, and during quick weight changes you lose time. For daily box operation or if you change weights frequently, we recommend our Eco Lock-Jaw or Lock-Jaw Pro. But for the home gym, as a backup set, or if you just need an affordable, working collar: Spring Collars do exactly what they're supposed to.

Spring Collars are the budget classic – functional, durable and proven. But if you change weights frequently or train in a box, the upgrade to Lock-Jaw Pro is worth it. The lever mechanism saves time and nerves, especially with pumped forearms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Spring Collars safe?
Yes, as long as they sit properly. The spring presses the collar together and holds the plates on the bar. For dynamic exercises like cleans or snatches, the hold is sufficient – but Lock-Jaw collars sit tighter.
Do they fit my barbell?
If you have an Olympic barbell with 50 mm sleeve: yes. That's the standard for CrossFit, Olympic Lifting and Powerlifting.
Why are they harder to open than Lock-Jaw?
That's due to the spring mechanism – you have to push against the spring resistance. With Lock-Jaw you just flip the lever. Our Spring Collars have longer lever arms than average, which makes opening somewhat easier.
Do they work with dumbbells too?
Yes, as long as the dumbbell has a 50 mm Olympic sleeve.
How many do I get?
One pair – so 2 collars. Ready to use for one barbell.
When should I rather take Lock-Jaw?
If you change weights frequently, do drop sets, or train in a box. The lever mechanism is simply faster and requires less force.

Customer reviews

Spring Collars are like the barbell collars everyone started with. They work, are practically indestructible, and cost almost nothing. But honestly: Once you've used Lock-Jaw, you don't want to go back. For a home gym as a backup set or when budget matters – absolutely okay. For daily use, I'd recommend the Lock-Jaw Pro though.
