Eleiko has announced the release of a patent-pending Competition Collar.
The collar is the first to receive certification from all three major strength sports federations: the International Weightlifting Federation, the International Powerlifting Federation and World Para Powerlifting.
The new collar is designed to be easier to handle, minimise interference during lifts, and protect equipment from wear.
The proprietary TPE ring compresses and rotates, securing the connection between the bar flange, plates, and collars to reduce wear and dampen noise. The collar also features a knurled tightening wheel and TPE ring for superior clamping force and an indexed locking lever to minimise interference with lifts and sleeve rotation.
The redesigned locking lever system distributes clamping force evenly across the bar sleeve, to reduce potential wear, while knurling on the lever and tightening wheel, combined with sandblasted grip contours, is designed to offer an improved loading experience.
The CEO of Eleiko, Erik Blomberg, said: “We are pleased to work with the IWF, IPF, and WPPO to create the first certified collar.”
