If you're kitting out a home or garage gym and want every jump covered, this Cortex set runs 11 pairs from 10 kg to 35 kg in 2.5 kg steps for 495 kg of total load. The hex ends sit flat and won't roll on you mid-session, and the chrome knurled handles give a medium grip you can hold through heavy sets.

It suits a lifter working compound and accessory movements who wants the full progression ready to grab, with the 4-tier steel rack keeping all 11 pairs organised in a 140 cm by 68 cm footprint. Weights are embossed in kg on each head, so you find the right pair at a glance.

Is this dumbbell set right for you?

This dumbbell set is right for you if:

  • You want a full strength range from 10 kg to 35 kg in 2.5 kg jumps, so you can progress without buying new weights
  • You train with a partner or household member and need multiple pairs ready to grab off the rack
  • You lift 3 or more days a week and want hex ends that sit flat for renegade rows and floor presses
  • You have a permanent gym spot for a 495 kg set and want the rack footprint of 140 cm x 68 cm to stay put

Look at another option if:

  • You only need a couple of fixed pairs for light home workouts rather than the full 11-pair range
  • You want a single adjustable dumbbell that swaps weights on one handle to save floor space
  • You lift above 35 kg per hand and need heavier fixed dumbbells to keep progressing
  • You're on a tighter budget and happy to build your range one pair at a time

Adela's Take

What sells me on this set is the 2.5kg jumps across the whole 10 to 35kg range: that lets you progress pressing or rowing without the big strength gaps cheaper sets leave.

The 4-tier rack footprint is 140 by 68cm, so measure before you commit to a corner. The hex ends mean they sit dead still on the floor, which I appreciate during supersets.

Full 10kg to 35kg Range, 11 Pairs in 2.5kg Jumps

You get every pair from 10kg to 35kg in 2.5kg increments, so you can match the load to the lift and add weight in small, sensible steps.

That range covers shoulder presses, rows, lunges, curls and heavy dumbbell work without leaving a gap where you stall.

  • 11 pairs: 10, 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, 32.5 and 35 kg
  • Consistent 2.5 kg jumps between pairs
  • Total set weight: 495 kg (dumbbells only)
  • Weight embossed in kg on each dumbbell for fast selection

What this means for you: One set carries a whole household from lighter accessory work up to heavy pressing and pulling, so nobody trains around a missing weight.

Rubber-Coated Hex Ends with Chrome Knurled Handles

The rubber-coated heads cushion the floor and the dumbbell when you set a heavy pair down, which keeps the noise and the marks down on timber and tiles.

The hexagonal shape stops the dumbbells rolling away the moment you rest them between sets.

  • Rubber coated ends over chrome knurled handles
  • Hexagonal, anti-roll head design
  • Medium knurl grip for a secure hold under load
  • Weight embossed in kg on each end

What this means for you: The anti-roll heads matter most during floor presses and renegade rows, where a round dumbbell drifts and a hex one stays put.

4-Tier Steel Rack, 140 x 68 x 123 cm Footprint

The four-tier tubular steel stand holds all 11 pairs in one organised wall of weight, so the full 495 kg lives in a 140 cm by 68 cm footprint.

At 123 cm tall it sits well under a standard ceiling and keeps the floor clear for lifting.

  • 4 tiers hold all 11 pairs
  • Rack dimensions: 140 cm long x 68 cm wide x 123 cm high
  • Tubular steel construction
  • Keeps 495 kg off the floor and in weight order

What this means for you: Tiered storage lets you read the embossed weights at a glance and lift each pair straight off, which keeps a home session moving.

Medium-Knurl Chrome Handles

The handles use a medium knurl, which gives you enough bite to hold the heavier pairs securely without tearing at your palms on high-rep sets.

  • Chrome knurled handle finish
  • Medium knurl depth for a balanced grip
  • Consistent handle feel across all 11 pairs

What this means for you: The same grip from the 10kg to the 35kg means your hands do not relearn the feel every time you change weight.

Fixed Dumbbells, No Collars, No Plate Swaps

Each weight is a single fixed unit, so you grab, lift and move on rather than loading plates and tightening collars between exercises.

For circuits and supersets, that saved time keeps your heart rate and your momentum up.

  • 11 fixed pairs ready to lift
  • No plates, collars or adjustment mechanism to manage
  • Weight range 10 kg to 35 kg

What this means for you: When you are dropping weight each round through a burnout set, fixed dumbbells make that a two-second change instead of a plate-loading job.

Tubular Steel Rack Built to Hold 495kg

The rack carries the full 495 kg of dumbbells on tubular steel tiers, so it is built for the real load of a complete set rather than a token few pairs.

  • Tubular steel rack frame
  • Holds the full set: 495 kg across 11 pairs
  • Gross shipping weight: 529.5 kg (dumbbells plus rack)
  • 4-tier layout spreads the load

What this means for you: This is a set for a home gym or a studio that sees daily use, not an occasional two-pair starter kit.

Weights Embossed in kg

Every dumbbell has its weight embossed in kg, so you pick the right pair at a glance instead of guessing or lifting to check.

  • Weight marked in kg on each dumbbell
  • Embossed, so it will not rub off with use
  • Metric throughout the set

What this means for you: In a shared household where several people train, clear markings stop the wrong weight ending up back on the wrong tier.

Complete Set, Dumbbells and Rack Together

You get all 11 pairs and the matched 4-tier stand as one set, so there is nothing else to source to have a working dumbbell station.

The rack is sized to the set, which avoids the mismatch of buying a stand that does not fit your weights.

  • 11 pairs plus a 4-tier rack included
  • Rack sized to hold the complete 495 kg set
  • 10 kg to 35 kg range covered

What this means for you: One delivery gives you a finished setup rather than a part-built one waiting on a separate rack order.

12-Month Parts Replacement Warranty

The set is covered by a 12-month parts replacement warranty, handled by us, so a genuine fault is sorted without you chasing anyone.

  • 12 months parts replacement warranty
  • Covers the dumbbells and rack as a set

What this means for you: Buy it, use it hard, and if something genuinely isn't right the 100-day money-back guarantee gives you time to be sure of the decision.

What's in the Box & Setup

What arrives

  • 11 pairs of hexagonal dumbbells (10 kg to 35 kg)
  • 4-tier tubular steel dumbbell rack
  • Assembly hardware and bolts

Setup reality

  1. The rack arrives flat-packed: four shelves and two support columns, joined with 16 M12 bolts, nuts and washers (included). The manual doesn't list tools; a spanner or socket to suit M12 fixings does the job.
  2. Build it on a flat, stable surface, tighten every bolt and check each tier for stability before loading any dumbbells.
  3. The dumbbells arrive finished and ready to use once the rack is built.
  4. The 11 pairs weigh 495 kg on their own, so pick the rack's final spot before you load it, and unload the dumbbells before ever moving it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a 495kg dumbbell set delivered?

The dumbbells ship as one very heavy consignment by freight (about 501kg packed), not a standard parcel, and the rack comes in two separate flat cartons. We'll be in touch to arrange delivery. Have a hand trolley and a second person ready on the day: the heaviest pairs are 35kg each, and you'll build the rack before loading it.

What happens if a dumbbell or the rack arrives damaged?

Take photos before you start loading the rack and send them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We'll lodge the freight claim, organise a replacement dumbbell or rack part, and stay across it until you're sorted. You don't chase the courier or the manufacturer yourself, that's our job.

Do the dumbbells need assembling?

The dumbbells arrive ready to use, no assembly at all. The 4-tier rack is the only thing to put together, from tubular steel sections. Two people make it easier, mostly for lifting the frame upright. Once it's built, load the pairs lightest on top to heaviest on the bottom tier so it stays stable.

How much floor space does the rack need?

The 4-tier stand measures 140cm long, 68cm deep and 123cm tall, so plan for a footprint a bit wider than that to load and unload comfortably from the front. At 123cm high it sits well under any standard ceiling. The real consideration is floor strength: 495kg in one spot is a lot, so a ground floor or slab is ideal.

Who is this set actually built for?

This is a full 10kg to 35kg range in 2.5kg steps, so it suits an established lifter or a shared home or PT gym where people train at different loads. If you're just starting out and only pressing 10 to 15kg, you'll pay for a lot of top-end weight you won't touch yet. Buy this when you want the whole range in one go.

Why hex ends and knurled handles over round dumbbells?

The hexagonal rubber-coated ends stop the dumbbells rolling away when you set them down, which matters for renegade rows, push-ups on the handles and floor presses. The chrome handles have a medium knurl, grippy enough to hold heavy pulls without shredding your palms on higher-rep sets. Weights are embossed in kg on each end, so grabbing the right pair mid-session is quick.

Will the 2.5kg jumps be enough to keep progressing?

For most lifters, yes. The 2.5kg step between each pair is a sensible increment on dumbbell movements, where jumping too far too soon usually wrecks your form. On presses and rows I'd rather see someone earn the next pair than grind a weight they can't control. The 35kg top pair gives plenty of room before you'd need anything heavier.

What warranty comes with the set?

The set is covered by a 12 month parts replacement warranty. If a dumbbell or the rack has a genuine fault in that window, contact us and we'll handle the replacement directly. It's a rubber-and-steel set with no electronics or moving parts, so there's very little to go wrong beyond normal handling.
