The knurling and overall quality is ok, but I prefer the straight handle over the bulged handles on my more expensive DBs. They’re better in general, and will accept a fat grip.

Got these for my Y1 Yoke. What an awesome set of safeties for a very reasonable price. The hitch pins are only ok, and I’m sure they want you to update to Fringe’s magpins. The lining is awesome and well constructed. The liner for the uprights is tight and well fitting.

I expected these to wear down or get looser over time, but they haven’t. They do slide a little during cleans and deadlifts, but nothing unexpected. Only problem is that I have two pairs, and they are not exactly consistent as far as tightness.

Only deducting because I prefer a uniformly fat grip rather than the bulge style. They still work well on DBs and can slide over a spreader bar to make a nice lat pull down.

Another piece that I always planned on upgrading, but it just does the job so well. Great for landmine rows. You can also slip fat grips over the handles rather than using D rings. If it were a little longer, it would be better

Bought the multi-pack from Amazon expecting to upgrade in a few months. Surprisingly, these have held up well. Used multiple times a week for warmups, and still going strong.

Picked these up for next to nothing, and they’re one of my favorite sets of 45s. The hubs are decently sized, outer lip is easy to grip. These are definitely worth it for $1 / lb

No complaints. I use them for my flip down safeties and they are secure, but easy to move. I can’t picture an easier way to secure them.
