About the Rubber Hex Dumbbell Pair (0.5kg)
A pair of 0.5kg rubber-coated hex dumbbells with knurled chrome handles. The cast iron head is sealed inside a moulded rubber shell, so the pair is quiet on the floor, safe on timber and tile, and rust-proof in a humid garage. The six-sided head stops the dumbbell rolling and gives a stable base for renegade rows and push-up variations.
The lightest pair in the range, for rehabilitation programs, warm-ups, seniors starting resistance training and Pilates. Physios often prescribe this weight for shoulder and rotator cuff work.
Sold as a pair, 0.5kg per dumbbell, 1.0kg total.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 0.5kg the right weight for me?
Use the 12-rep test: if you can do 12 clean reps of the exercise you do most and the last two are hard, it is right. If you cannot reach 8, go lighter; if 15 are easy, go heavier. Our dumbbell weight guide has a chart by exercise.
Do rubber dumbbells mark floors?
Set down under control, no. Dropped from height onto tile or timber, any dumbbell can mark the floor, so we recommend a rubber mat underneath.
Do they smell?
New rubber has a smell for the first few weeks. Air the pair in shade and it fades.
What is the shipping cost?
Free shipping on orders over $75 to Australia and New Zealand, otherwise $9.95 flat. Orders are processed within 1 to 2 business days and metro deliveries take 3 to 5 business days.
