These are fine collars for things like a lat pulldown or machine where you are just trying to keep the weights in place and there's no gravity pulling the the plates. But for a barbell or dumbbells, these are terrible because they will slowly slide causing movement in the plates during the exercise. Overall these aren't used anymore, they are old school and were popular in the 90s when we didn't have nice collars like we do today.

York Barbell Spring Collars – Chrome are not great. They will do the job but in my opinion there are way better options.

With so many other great collars and designs out there why are these still being used ? Not good at anything and if they are tight enough to work well I've had clients have issues putting them on and off

From the variety of spring clips out there, I liked these the best since they had the black plastic ends, making placement and removal easier. I never really use these any longer since I have a multitude of other collars that I purchased over the years that are so much more secure.

I might be the only person who thinks these are actually great. Simple, affordable, and effective, especially on the ribbed sleeves of my Texas All American Bar. They slide on easily, lock the plates securely, and come off fast between sets. The solid metal construction and easy gripping action(no wise cracks please) make them a dependable, no-frills option for any home gym.
