LOADABLE DUMBBELLS
The Loadable Dumbbells, also called adjustable dumbbells or modular dumbbells, represent a practical solution, extremely effective in enabling the widest variability of loads according to the athletes’ needs and to the different exercises. They are available in two versions and are sold individually:
- code 8800/4 – Total length 38 cm, loadable sleeves 10 cm, weight 4 kg
- code 8800/6 – Total length 52 cm, loadable sleeves 17 cm, weight 6 kg
From a constructive point of view, in order to be able to use the same discs used on Olympic barbells (hole diameter 50 mm) with the relative collar locks, the Loadable Dumbbells have been designed just like “mini-barbells”, with rotating loadable sleeves, diameter 50 mm, mounted on 28 mm diameter bars by means of bushings and bearings. The handle, diameter 28 mm, length 15.5 cm, has a medium diamond knurling.
The length of the Dumbbells
The 4 Kg model, code 8800/4, is 38 cm long (like a 24 kg Hex Rubber Dumbbell), is compact and easy to manage. On the other hand, the loadable sleeves of this model are 10 cm long, of which at least 4 cm are occupied by the Collar Locks code 9016/1 (that we recommend with these dumbbells), leaving a loadable space of around 6 cm on each sleeve for the discs.
The 6 Kg model, code 8800/6, is instead 52 cm long, which make it less maneuverable, but is equipped with 17 cm long loadable sleeves, allowing to add more discs to the dumbbell.
It should also be noted that the adaptability of these dumbbells and, above all, the possibility of using different disc locking systems, forces the user to carry out necessary tests and evaluations, based on the load and dynamics of the exercise. Careful prevention of any possible dangerous situation for people and things is recommended.
The Loadable Dumbbells are sold individually, the discs and collar locks are not included.
Recommended discs (50 mm hole diameter):
code 9030-9036 PU Plates with Handles (from 1.25 to 25 Kg)
code 9030/3-9035/3 Rubber Coated Plates with Handles (from 1.25 to 20 Kg)
