Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Impex Fitness has recalled approximately 77,200 OBB-20 Olympic Dumbbell handles sold at Dick's Sporting Goods stores and online from July 2015 through July 2021. The black locking collars included with these chrome dumbbell handles can fail to hold weights securely when the handle is held vertically. Consumers should stop using the handles immediately and contact Impex Fitness for free replacement locking collars.

Risk

The locking collars can slip, causing weight plates to fall off the handle when held perpendicular to the floor, posing an impact injury hazard to the user or bystanders. While four reports of slipping collars have been received, no injuries have been reported to date.
