    This kit has been developed to increase the weight range of our adjustable dumbbells. 2 piece plates fit on the inside of the handles against the backing plates. Still enough room for handgrip and is perfectly balanced. Most people rarely use less than 20 lb dumbbells so having a higher weight range that starts at 20 lbs is ideal. Now your 5-75 lb dumbbells can become 20-90 lbs!  Or a 5-45 lbs set can become 20-60 lbs. Or you can even use this to add even more weight to dumbbells and the add on kit. 5-120 lb set can become 20-135! See below for pics and more details.
     

    Description

    Heavy Handle Plate Kit features:
    • New innovative design to add more weight to the Quick-Lock Dumbbells.
    • Kit comes with four 7.5 lb add on plates and hardware.
    • This kit adds 15 lbs to each Quick-Lock Dumbbell handle. Works with all our dumbbell weight sizes.
    • Increases empty handle weight from 5 lbs to 20 lbs to give a new range of weight.
    • Does not add any extra size to the dumbbell, only more weight.
    • Solid cast iron powder coated construction with precision machining.
    • Note: The old Ironmaster Fat grip adapters will not fit with this kit in use but most rubber fat grips are shorter in length and will fit well. Inside grip space with the HH plates installed is about 5.18"

    Expands Load Capacity, Not the Size

    Designed to expand the capacity of your QLDB, these four additional handle plates bolt on the inside of the dumbbells against the backing plates, adding 15lbs to each dumbbell.

    1. Two pieces of 7.5lb-plates fit around the handles on the inside of each dumbbell, resulting in a total of 20lbs starting weight.
    2. Adds 15lbs to each Quick-Lock adjustable dumbbell making your 5-45 lb dumbbell set weigh 20-60 lbs. The 5-75 lb set becomes 20-90 lbs and your 5-120 lbs is amplified to 20-135 lbs.
    3. The new weight range this creates can be perfectly suited for many Ironmaster trainers who rarely go below 20 lbs anyway.
    4. Since these plates are placed on the inside of the dumbbell handles, your dumbbell will not increase in size, only the weight.

    Spacious and Improves Weight Balance

    Despite adding these heavy plates between the two backing plates on your dumbbell handle, there's still enough space on the handle for you to grip comfortably. You can also expect a better weight balance because these plates are placed closer to the dumbbell's center of gravity.

    1. Leaves a 5-inch grip space for holding the dumbbell.
    2. Better weight balance is established as the center becomes heavier.

    Safe, Secure and Well-Crafted

    The heavy handle plates stay in place by means of strong large screws that hold them together around the handles. Manufactured from powder-coated and precision-machined cast iron, you can be sure these plates will last a lifetime.

    1. The plates will not move or get dislodged once they are securely attached to the handles.
    2. The two halves of the plates are securely clamped and tightened around the handles using the two heavy-duty machine bolts and will never move.
    3. The plates are precision-machined from solid cast iron with black powder coating finish.

     

    The 2 piece plates fit on the insides of the dumbbell handles like this. 20 lbs as pictured.

    *The two halves clamp down on the round handle very securely and will not twist or move

    once the two large machine bolts are tightened.*

    5-45 lb dumbbell becomes 20-60 lbs as pictured.

    5-75 lb dumbbell becomes 20-90 lbs as pictured.

    5-120 lb dumbbell becomes 20-135 lbs as pictured.

    Still plenty of grip room with more than 5" space. In fact, the dumbbells become better balanced with the weight closer to the center!

    Note: Fat Grip Adapters won't fit around the handle once the Heavy Handle Plates are attached.

    Better balance
    Ryan (Hercules, CA) | January 16th, 2023
    These are a must if you have the DBs because they greatly improve the balance and feel in addition to upping the total weight.

    There is still plenty of space for your hands, but I would rather have the plates be 5 lbs each so the minimum DB weight is 15 lbs rather then 20 lbs. Gaining that flexibility is more valuable to me because I also have the 120 lb add-on kit.

    Peter (Coon Rapids, MN) | December 12th, 2019
    Very nice, does what it's suppose to. You can actually put both pairs on one dumbbell and it literally becomes the worlds most compact adjustable dumbbell which no other dumbbell can brag about. My 50lb dumbbells don't look like 50lb dumbbells anymore and now there's more range in motion for me.

    Packaging could be better. No styrofoam besides the the cardboard box, mind you it's still securely taped. Just one knick/dent on one of the plates I suppose I could color it in with a Sharpie.

    Looks a bit bare with the plates on. The 7.5lb markings probably should have been on the otherside so that it actually shows? Or at the very least, include a nice IRONMASTER decal/sticker to put on the plate so there's an up-to-date kind of look.

    Functionality, it seems very tight. Doesn't look like it's going to loosen any time soon but only time will tell. Other than that, I can see this product lasting a helluva long time.
