In the current highly competitive market for fitness equipment, product craftsmanship has become the core competitiveness that enables enterprises to stand firm.Baopeng Factory, with its exquisite craftsmanship throughout the entire production process of dumbbells (steel core), from raw material selection to finished product assembly, demonstrates a level of professionalism far exceeding that of its peers. This commitment delivers high-quality, durable dumbbell products to consumers and sets a new industry benchmark for craftsmanship.

n Anti-Cracking Principle: Baopang’s chamfer disperses stress, increasing the tear resistance of the rubber coating by 300%.
n Sandblasting Key: Using 120-grit silicon carbide (industry commonly uses iron shot), reducing surface roughness → bonding strength ↑45%.
In raw material selection, Baopeng Factory demonstrates extreme rigor. The dumbbell ball heads are made of high-quality 45# steel, which is high in density and long in service life, ensuring durability from the source. Furthermore, Baopeng Factory performs sandblasting treatment on the iron core, effectively removing surface attachments and significantly enhancing the adhesion between the material and the iron core. However, most other factories omit this crucial step, resulting in an insecure bond between the iron core and the material. This leads to the problem of the adhesive layer peeling off and cracking during later use.
For the key component – the handle – the processing technology at Baopeng Factory is even more meticulous and precise.
1. Material: 40Cr alloy steel (Tensile Strength 980MPa) vs Industry 20# steel (450MPa)
2. Knurling: 0.6mm diamond pattern + double spiral groove (Grip strength ↑50%) vs Single-line straight grain
3. Electroplating: Triple-layer composite chrome plating vs Single-layer decorative chrome
4. Salt Spray Test: 72 hours no rust vs Industry 24-hour standard
The handle of the dumbbell is made of 40cr material. After being sawn, processed by a CNC lathe, and given a knurled finish, it will undergo a 72-hour salt spray test to ensure that the handle has excellent rust prevention properties and durability. However, some competing factories only perform simple surface treatments and even omit the salt spray test process, which makes the handle prone to rust in damp and sweaty environments, shortening the product’s service life (greatly affecting the user experience of the dumbbell).
Solving Industry Pain Points
· 32% of the cases, the retaining ring of the dumbbells rotates during use, causing the handle to become loose. This results in a lack of safety during use.
· Baopeng Solution: A 0.3mm deep annular groove machined at the bottom of the retainer ring forms a mechanical interlock with the ball head, ensuring stability during use. However, the retaining rings of many similar factories do not have this special design. After being used for a period of time, problems such as loose gaskets and rotating ball heads may occur, which will affect the user experience of the product.
Baopeng Factory also pursues perfection in the assembly process. The ball head hole data and the dimensions of both ends of the handle are precisely calculated to achieve a “zero-to-zero” tight fit. Additionally, two gaskets are added on each side of the ball head to prevent loosening caused by drops. More importantly, based on the assembled fit between the iron core and the handle, Baopeng Factory performs full welding treatment, creating a dual insurance for tightness. In comparison, many other factories rely on simple assembly without precise dimensional calculations or full welding, leading to potential safety hazards like loose or detached components during use, severely compromising product quality and user safety.
With these numerous advantages in craftsmanship, the dumbbells (steel core) produced by Baopeng Factory not far surpass competing products in quality but have also gained widespread recognition from consumers. In the future, Baopeng Factory will continue to delve into craftsmanship innovation, constantly improving product quality, and injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the fitness equipment industry.
