Product Information
Full details
Designed for strength training enthusiasts and home gym users, the B&Q 17.5kg Rubber Hex Dumbbells offer a robust solution for building muscle through resistance training, presses, and rows. These dumbbells feature a durable cast iron core with a protective rubber coating to dampen noise and prevent floor damage, though their fixed 17.5kg weight makes them best suited for those who have already established a consistent strength training foundation.

FAQs
Are these sold as a pair?
Yes, this product is provided as a pair of two 17.5kg dumbbells.
Can these be used outdoors?
While durable, the rubber and metal components may degrade if exposed to rain or extreme humidity; indoor use is recommended.
Is the handle diameter standard?
The handles are designed to be ergonomic, offering a secure grip for most hand sizes during standard resistance movements.
Do I need a storage rack?
While not required due to the anti-roll hex design, a rack can help keep your workout area organized and improve accessibility.
How do I clean the rubber coating?
Wipe the rubber heads with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.
Troubleshooting
Handles feel slippery during workouts
Ensure the handle is wiped clean of sweat and use gym-grade chalk if further grip assistance is required.
Weights leaving marks on light-colored flooring
Place the dumbbells on a heavy-duty rubber gym mat rather than directly on delicate flooring surfaces.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable rubber coating reduces noise and surface damage
- Anti-roll hex design improves safety in workout areas

- Suitable for both home and commercial training environments
Cons

- Requires significant storage space due to weight
- Not suitable for beginners who cannot safely lift 17.5kg
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply remove the packaging and place the dumbbells in your dedicated workout area on a flat, stable surface. Because of the rubber coating, you can store them directly on most gym mats or rubber flooring. To maintain the life of your dumbbells, periodically wipe down the handles with a dry cloth to remove sweat and oils that might cause corrosion on the chrome. If the rubber casing becomes dusty or scuffed, use a damp cloth with mild soap to restore the finish. Avoid dropping the weights repeatedly on concrete, as this can eventually compromise the rubber bond over time.
