Valor Fitness Olympic Screw Collars

Yes. Because these collars are designed for standard 2-inch Olympic barbell sleeves, they are compatible with any bar that uses that standard size, including straight bars, hex or trap bars, and curl bars.

These T-screw collars offer a much more secure hold than traditional spring clips. While spring clips rely on tension, the T-screw mechanism physically locks the collar against the sleeve, which prevents plates from sliding during heavy or explosive movements like deadlifts.

These are constructed from 12-gauge steel, so they do add a small amount of weight to the bar. While they are not heavy enough to significantly impact your training load, you should account for them if you are tracking your lifts with extreme precision.

The T-screw is designed to tighten firmly against the sleeve, but it is standard practice to be mindful when tightening. If you crank the screw down excessively hard, it can leave minor marks on the chrome finish of your bar over time.

These collars are sold as a pair, so one purchase provides everything you need to secure plates on both sides of a single barbell.
