KeppiFitness Barbell Clips OPENCOLLAR

Very convenient when doing weight progressions on your lifts. You can slide an additional plate on the bar without having to slide the collar off of the bar. You do have to remove the collar, but by taking it straight out after unlocking the clips. It is a minor difference, but after a heavy set of deadlifts, minor improvements seem to be magnified. Tough to beat the price.

The Keppifitness barbell clips are an easy item to recommend. The clips work really well for compound barbell movements and even work on axle bar/SSB Yoke sleeves. The built in magnets are a nice touch and give the clips a premium feel for not a premium price.

Love these collars for deadlifts. Can load the bar without having to lay the collar on the floor every time.

Pretty much all positives on these collars. The are super convenient to use. They are very fast to install and remove. They seem to hold tight and I really have found no negatives with using them.

Great collars. Fast and easy to use. Very secure. They were on sale so I got 2 sets.

These collars are great at doing their job. They keep my bumpers in place every time. Great price and no complaints here.

A blatant eleiko öppen collar knock off, but it truly matches the same built quality and slight design modification to avoid a lawsuit for 1/3 of the price, a great buy, I own 2 sets.

Out of the box these are stellar. They remind me of someone else’s “öppen” collars, but theirs has "Golden Arcs" and buns with no seeds, selling the "Big Mick" instead of the Big Mac. Or something like that. You get the picture. I do find that it’s only necessary to close one handle on the collar instead of both for a snug fit. I wonder if over time this design will loosen like Elei… er McDonald’s.

Most used collars due to ease of use, accessibility (magnetic), and strength. You can choose to lock in 1 or both latches depending on the lift. Plus they don’t scratch the bar if you care about that stuff. The only time I use other collars is when I need them thinner on my short bar. These are on the thicker side. Anything this good and cheap that is available on Amazon is a huge win in my books, assuming you have Prime.

For the value, these are great collars. I like the open functionality because you can put a weight on and then remove the collar. Additionally, I typically only close one side of the collar unless I need it to be really tight for something like deadlifts. However, when both sides are closed, it isn't the easiest to loosen the collar. For that reason, the performance gets a ding. I would also like a better magnet. Otherwise, I prefer these over my Bells of Steel magnetic collars.
