Weight Lifting Plates: Home, Schools & Commercial Gyms
At Gtech Fitness®, we offer a good selection of home and gym weight plates from manufacturers such as Body-Solid, TAG Fitness, TKO, Troy VTX, USA Sports, and York Barbell Company. We offer cast iron plates, rubber-coated plates, urethane plates, and solid rubber bumper plates. A few factors separate high-quality weight plates from lower-quality ones. First, the base material of the weightlifting plate is typically cast iron, except for bumper weight plates. Cast iron is the material of choice due to its strength, low cost, and ability to mold and shape into the desired end product easily. York Iso Grip Plates use a steel composite, which is more robust than cast iron, so it holds up better to drops and resists cracking or breaking much better.
Next, the precision of the weight plate comes into play with the overall price. Higher precision plates take added steps to enhance quality, such as machining for smoother surfaces and more precise shaping. They take additional steps to increase the overall weight accuracy of the workout plate to create a lower weight deviation with more precise tolerances. All barbell plates have a weight deviation. Cheap weight plates have higher deviations, while high-quality plates have lower weight deviations. Weight deviation means how close the actual weight is to the stated weight on the plate.
Lastly, the type of weight lifting plate protection plays a crucial role in overall cost. Cast-iron weight plates with black or gray paint finishes are the most affordable. However, they offer the least durable plate protection. Paint can chip or crack in gym settings, exposing the iron to the elements and starting the rusting process. Rubber-coated weight plates are the next step up, offering excellent plate protection and better impact resistance. However, some users do not like the rubber smell associated with them. Urethane weight plates are the industry's most durable, longest-lasting weightlifting plate coating with little to no odor.
