Product Information

Full details

The B&Q 17.5kg Rubber Hex Dumbbell Pair is designed for athletes and fitness enthusiasts looking to build strength through versatile home or commercial gym routines. These dumbbells offer a robust, stable design that facilitates a wide range of compound and isolation movements, though the fixed 17.5kg weight makes them less suitable for beginners who require progressive weight increments during a single session.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these dumbbells sold as a pair?

Yes, this product includes a pair of 17.5kg dumbbells.

Can I use these on hardwood floors?

The rubber coating helps protect surfaces, but we recommend using a rubber gym mat for maximum protection and noise reduction.

Are the handles standard diameter?

The handles feature an ergonomic contour designed for a comfortable, standard grip suitable for most hand sizes.

Is the weight adjustable?

No, these are fixed-weight dumbbells and cannot be adjusted.

Are these suitable for commercial gym use?

Yes, the pinned head construction and high-quality materials are designed to withstand intensive daily use in commercial settings.

Will the rubber coating crack over time?

With proper care and by avoiding heavy impacts on sharp edges, the rubber coating is designed to last through years of regular exercise.

Troubleshooting

Handles feel slippery

Wipe the chrome handles with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove sweat or chalk residue.

Dumbbell rolls during floor exercises

Ensure the dumbbell is placed on a flat, level surface and that the hexagonal face is pressed firmly against the ground.

Rubber smell upon unboxing

Allow the dumbbells to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24-48 hours to dissipate the factory scent.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable cast iron core for long-term use
  • Rubber coating protects floors and reduces noise
  • Hexagonal design eliminates rolling hazards
  • Ergonomic handle provides a secure grip
  • Suitable for both home and commercial environments

Cons

  • Fixed weight lacks flexibility for progressive training
  • Heavy starting weight may be unsuitable for beginners
  • Rubber coating can develop a scent if stored in confined spaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for these dumbbells, as they arrive ready for immediate use. To maintain the rubber exterior, wipe down the heads with a damp cloth after particularly intense workouts to remove perspiration or dust. If you find the handles become slippery due to chalk or debris, a light cleaning with a dry cloth will restore the grip. Store the dumbbells on a flat surface or a dedicated rack to ensure the rubber coating does not compress unevenly over long periods. Keep them away from extreme heat sources to prevent the rubber material from softening or losing its integrity.
