OSO Axle Collars 2.0

Designed exclusively for use with 1.9" OD specialty bars, OSO's Axle Series collars feature the same aircraft-grade aluminum construction and rubberized interior lining as the standard OSO barbell collars. Normally available only in olive green, this Rogue-exclusive version of the OSO Axle Collar comes in red.

What is a Collar?

What barbell collars are

Collars (clips) lock the plates onto a barbell’s sleeves so they can’t slide or rattle off — a safety essential, especially for pressing and Olympic lifts. The common types: cheap spring clips, quick lock-jaw / quick-release collars (the everyday favorite — fast and secure), and competition collars (precision-weighted, 2.5 kg each, for calibrated meets).

What to look for

A secure clamp that won’t creep under drops or high reps, quick on-and-off operation, and a fit for your bar’s sleeve diameter (standard Olympic is 50 mm). For most home gyms, a pair of lock-jaw-style collars is the right balance of speed, grip, and price.
