What Kettlebell Weights Do We Carry?
Pound bells run from 5 lb to 80 lb, and kilogram bells from 4 kg to 48 kg.
| Line | Weights | Build |

Check whether a bell is sized in pounds or kilograms before you order, because a 20 kg bell weighs more than twice a 20 lb bell.

Think in pounds but want a kilogram bell? TAG's powder-coated cast iron kettlebell is marked in both kg and lb.
Which Finish and Handle Suit You?
Match the finish to your floor and the handle to your grip:
- ✅ Pounds or kilograms, to match your program
- ✅ A lighter bell for presses, a heavier one for swings
- ✅ A coating or rubber base for finished floors
- ✅ A handle wide enough for two hands on swings
- ✅ A weight range that leaves room to move up
- ✅ A rack or shelf for every bell you own
Coated bells suit finished floors and shared rooms. Body-Solid's KBZ bells wrap one-piece cast iron in a color-coded rubber coating and add an industrial chrome handle.
Body-Solid's KBZ product data sheet lists the full size range and construction.
Cast iron bells grow in size and handle width as weight rises, while competition-style bells keep one size. Our cast iron vs competition kettlebells guide explains how each feels in your hands.
One Bell, a Pair, a Set or an Adjustable?
One bell is enough to start learning swings, and a matched pair opens up double-bell work.
| Choice | One bell | Pair or set | Adjustable bell |
|---|---|---|---|
| Suits | Learning swings and goblet squats | Double-bell work and progression | One bell in a small space |
| Weights | One size | Several sizes; see each set page | 8 to 40 lb in six settings |
| Space | Corner or shelf | Plan a rack | 8.8″ L x 7″ W x 12.5″ H |
| Watch for | Outgrowing one weight | Floor space for several bells | Stops at 40 lb, residential use |
The BowFlex SelectTech 840 turns a dial to pick one of six loads, and BowFlex lists a 2-year parts warranty.

Where Do Racks and Facility Orders Live?
A rack keeps bells off the floor and in weight order. TAG Fitness's 2-tier kettlebell rack lists a 40″ x 22″ x 26″ footprint, a 14 gauge 2x4 oval steel tube frame and 7 gauge steel shelves.

Kettlebell Questions
How to choose the right weight for a kettlebell?
Match the bell to the lift: presses and get-ups take a lighter bell than swings and cleans. If you land between two sizes, round down.
What are some common kettlebell exercises?
Swings, goblet squats, Turkish get-ups, presses, cleans and carries cover most programs. The weight hangs below the handle, so the bell moves differently from a dumbbell.
What muscles are worked by a kettlebell?
It depends on the lift. Swings and cleans work the glutes, hamstrings, back and core, goblet squats add the quads, and presses load the shoulders and triceps.
Are kettlebells or dumbbells better?
Neither wins every time. Kettlebells suit swings, cleans, get-ups and carries, while fixed and adjustable dumbbells suit curls, rows and presses. Many home gyms keep both.
