will the collars on these come loose at all after frequent use?

I find it very easy to snug the collars after a set. The effort is trivial compared to the exercise you're doing. The best part about these bars is that it's easy to change the weights--no wrench required--and the collars will not slip off during an exercise.

My come loose immediately. But there are lot of thread so the barbells don't come off. But if I curl I have to tighten them in between each set of reps.

Yes the collars do become loose. Usually they become loose after each set. Sometimes you might get lucky and they will stay tight for a couple sets. One should avoid buying these dumbbell bars.

yes I think its a common problem for these type dumbells. never had them fall off during use but I regularly re-tighten them

Yes, they fall off constantly during use. I re-tighten them between every set. I've gone as far as wrapping the threads in tape to give the collars some friction.

It should hold the setting, we were not happy with these collars either. They didn't stimulate the dogs strong enough to keep them in yard. We ordered different collars.

Possibly. I think it's probably just because I have small dogs with small collars. They are beautifully made and if I ever have a larger dog again, I would not hesitate to purchase another of these tags.

I use these collars for my 11lb and 15lb dogs. I have rubber tips on the metal 'prongs' because they are a little too harsh for smaller dogs. I use the vibrate mode mostly, very seldom use the shock. These have been good collars except for the fact that sometimes they don't go off when you push the button. It's a bit difficult to train when your training device doesn't work EVERY time you need it too. But, since I know that this is the case I just check the vibrate right before I put them on them (before I let them out into the yard) and if it doesn't go off when I push the button I just turn off the remote and turn it back on,, this usually works. One thing I will say is they hold a charge for a LONG time! This is a definite positive because I've used a few different types of collars,, i.e. battery, rechargeable etc. and these have been the best at longevity. Hope this helps

Not really. The problem with it is that it doesn't tighten like regular pinch collars.

Buy a stainless tag and secure it on a collar that doesn't hang loosely on the dog's neck. It sounds like the collar you're using is too loose

Paul, I don't know. I can say that I have used this system with same collars for a year and have been very pleased with the performance thus far. Good luck!

The holes on the collar go almost all the way around, so you can tighten it up as much as you need. My dogs are just under 7 lbs and it will work on them.

No. Although I have kept mine on my dog when she was outside in light rain, I try not to. One of our first 2 collars was damaged by a fairly small amount of liquid. (The second one broke when I pulled on it, instead of her collar... oops!)

Hi Greg. They fit my 25 lbs dogs fine. The collars are super long. I had to cut quite a bit off the end because it was hitting my dogs in the face.

They would fit, although you may have to use the current collar. However, I had issues with the collars working reliably after a few weeks. In this regard, you may want to check with your local Petco, or Petsmart.

No they will not, but they do get loose after a few wears. If you wash them they will be back form fitting. They are also long enough for almost anyone's arms

If you were able to get the collar pulled down you will just have to rock it back & forth till it budges. I have had had a stubborn one before and it just took patience on my part.

Hello, I have not had a problem with these collars, I have a 60# lab youngster that has not broken it. I have used these collars for 3 years an have not had any problems with them on any of our dogs. I would highly recommend them to you.

I've only changed them once in 8 months. Really once the parameters are established I think you could take the wire down and collar off and they'd still be afraid to cross the line.

Not at all. I have this for my 200lbs mastiffs and it is loose enough that tj doesn't bother them to wear it casually and I hook it to a leash and it gets right enough while I can still slip it on and off their heads. It can also for my 80lb mastiff mix so it can be adjusted to fit many different sizes. By far the best collar I have ever bought

Not at all, I use these 4-5 times a week at the gym and they are thrown around in my car all the time. I haven't had any trouble with them tangling up, hope this helps!
