Frequently Asked Questions
What is the hole size of a 2.5kg weight plate?
The center hole measures between 28mm and 31mm. It fits standard bars but won't fit 50mm Olympic sleeves.
Are cast iron weight plates better than rubber?
Cast iron plates offer a thinner profile than vinyl or rubber-coated versions. This allows more weight on a single dumbbell or barbell.
