Color Coded Olympic Bumper Plates

Bumper plates, also known as just "bumpers," are Olympic-sized weight plates constructed of thick, dense rubber. These plates are designed to allow a loaded bar to be safely dropped without risking damage to the lifting platform, the plates themselves, or the floor. The BalanceFrom Colored Olympic Bumper Plates are available in a variety of weights: 10 Pounds, 15 Pounds, 25 Pounds, 35 Pounds, 45 Pounds, and 55 Pounds. They are sold in pairs.

It's important to note that the 10-pound plates are not intended to be used alone. In order to maintain a consistent diameter across all plate sizes, the 10-pound plates are designed to be thinner. Using these lightweight plates on their own could result in bending, which would ultimately damage the plates.

The high-density rubber construction of these bumper plates, combined with their solid stainless steel inserts, allows them to withstand repeated drops with minimal bounce. This not only protects the floors, but also helps preserve the integrity of the bars being used.

For easy identification, the bumper plates are color-coded based on their weight. Additionally, the weight is clearly labeled on each plate in both pounds and kilograms. Each plate has a 2-inch inner ring diameter, allowing them to be used with any Olympic barbell, dumbbell bar, or sled with a 2-inch diameter.

The premium-quality rubber used in the construction of these bumper plates ensures long-lasting durability and performance. The consistent 17.75-inch total diameter across all plate sizes allows for seamless and efficient workouts, as the user can easily transition between different weight increments.

In summary, the BalanceFrom Colored Olympic Bumper Plates offer a reliable and versatile solution for strength training and weightlifting. Their high-density rubber construction, solid stainless steel inserts, and consistent diameter make them suitable for a wide range of fitness activities, from CrossFit and powerlifting to home gym setups. The color-coded design and weight labeling in both pounds and kilograms provide clear visual cues, enhancing the user's workout experience. By carefully considering the limitations of the 10-pound plates, users can ensure the long-term integrity of their equipment and maintain a safe and effective training regimen.
