Overview
Specification-based profile. We have not tested this product hands-on and do not give it a review score. How we research.
Gym Gear says these bumpers are designed to handle consistent dropping, with a rubber coating and a stainless steel centre, and should be used only on a quality lifting platform. Its thickness table gives 25, 47, 62, 72 and 82 mm for the 5 to 25 kg plates, so this 5 kg plate is 25 mm.
No diameter or weight tolerance is published: the spec sheet's 47 cm length and width are not labelled as a diameter. The maker does not say whether a variant is one plate or a pair.
