For a tricep bar, it works. However, the sizing on the plate carrier is machined roughly an eighth inch too small. This causes a rather disconcerting clanging at the top of each triceps extension rep. That's not something you really want to hear A) that close to your ears, and B) when you have a weighted metal object directly over your head.I wish I could give the collars a separate review; if so, I'd give them 0-1 stars. They are terrible - beyond use for more than a paperweight. The anchor bolt hole isn't even drilled straight. Plus the plating made the entry threads unequal - you can't even get the bolt started. In order to even use these, I'm going to have to re-tap the stupid hole. Ridiculous.Note to manufacturer: buy a decent drill press and RE-TAP as the last machining step. Jeez, my 9yo nephew could have made a better collar....
