Frequently Asked Questions

Training plates are made of solid rubber and are ideal for daily workouts. Competition plates feature a large steel hub in the center, offering tighter weight tolerances and a thinner profile for loading more weight on the bar.

While bumper plates are designed to be dropped, we highly recommend using them on rubber flooring or a lifting platform to maximize the lifespan of both the plates and your floor.

Our plates are made from high-quality virgin rubber, which has a much lower odor compared to recycled rubber plates. Any slight scent typically dissipates within a few days of unpacking.

Our standard training bumper plates have a weight tolerance of +/- 1%, ensuring you get an accurate and consistent lift every time.

Our bumper plates are typically sold in pairs for lighter weights and individually for heavier units. Please check the specific SKU selection on the product page.

Bumper Plate Buying Guide

Before purchasing, consider these three critical factors to ensure you get the right equipment for your goals:

  1. Durometer Rating: Look for a rating between 80-90. A higher rating means a "dead blow" (low bounce), which is safer for tight spaces.
  2. Insert Quality: Ensure the center ring is made of stainless steel and is securely anchored. Cheap brass inserts can pop out after repeated drops.
  3. Plate Thickness: Thinner plates allow you to fit more weight on the barbell sleeve. This is crucial if you plan on deadlifting or squatting over 200kg.
Pro Tip: For beginners, we recommend a 100kg set (2x5kg, 2x10kg, 2x15kg, 2x20kg) as a perfect starting point.
