Olympic weight plate collar TKO 143SCO-CM clamp collar for 2.5 kg plates

TKO 143SCO-CM Olympic clamp collar is a compact fastening device designed to secure 2.5 kg plates on standard Olympic bars. The clamp-style collar provides a quick-release mechanism and firm clamping force to minimise plate movement during lifts. Constructed for repeated on/off use, it is suitable for strength training, weightlifting and CrossFit settings where fast plate changes and reliable hold are required.

Advantages

The clamp collar delivers a secure, low-profile fit that reduces axial play of plates on the sleeve and improves stability during dynamic movements. Its quick-release lever enables fast installation and removal without tools, saving time between sets. The design emphasises consistent holding force and ease of handling, making it a practical choice for frequent gym use and home training environments.

Suitable for

• Securing 2.5 kg Olympic plates on standard 50 mm sleeves
• Strength training and weightlifting sessions
• CrossFit and circuit workouts requiring fast plate changes
• Home gym setups with frequent bar loading and unloading

Key specifications

• Compatibility: clamp collar for Olympic bar sleeves (designed for standard 50 mm sleeve diameter)
• Function: quick-release clamp mechanism for fast on/off operation
• Suitable plate size: optimised for secure holding of 2.5 kg plates
• Form factor: compact, low-profile collar to minimise interference with lifting technique
• Material and finish: durable construction intended for repeated use (material details unspecified)

How to use

Place the clamp collar onto the bar sleeve after loading the 2.5 kg plates, align the clamp over the sleeve and engage the quick-release lever until the collar is firmly seated. Ensure the collar sits flush against the outer face of the plate and check that there is no axial play before starting lifts. To remove, open the lever and slide the collar off the sleeve. Regular visual checks and simple functional tests before each session help verify the collar remains tight and effective.

Usage recommendations

Use the clamp collar on bars and sleeves that match the collar's intended diameter. Verify the lever is fully engaged before performing dynamic or overhead movements. Inspect the collar periodically for signs of wear and test its clamping action; replace if holding force diminishes. Avoid forcing the collar onto improperly sized sleeves to prevent damage to the collar or the bar.
