Technical Specifications

Who Are These Competition Collars For?

These competition collars suit competitive weightlifters and powerlifters who train and compete under IWF or IPF rules, as well as gyms and competition venues that need certified equipment. The 2.5kg weight per competition collar is standard for official competition — total bar weight calculations must account for this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do competition collars weigh 2.5kg each?
IWF and IPF rules standardise collar weight at 2.5kg per collar so all athletes compete with the same total bar weight. This weight is factored into the official bar total in competition.

Are these competition collars sold as a pair?
Yes. These competition collars are sold as a pair — one for each side of the barbell.
