The Cast Iron 1.25kg Weight Plate set includes four units totaling a 5kg load. These standard plates use a 28-30mm hole diameter for compatibility with most home gym rods. Solid iron construction maintains structural integrity during high-volume lifting sessions.
Key Features
- Solid Cast Iron: One-piece metal casting with no internal fillers. These plates won't break or leak during heavy impact.
- Standard Hole Diameter: 28mm to 30mm center opening. Fits standard dumbbell and barbell rods widely used in BD.
- Anti-Rust Finish: Industrial black paint coating across the entire surface. Reduces oxidation from sweat and humidity during storage.
- Rounded Rim Design: Machined edges without sharp protrusions. Prevents floor scratches and hand injuries during weight changes.
- Outer Lip Grip: Raised perimeter edge on both sides. Simplifies picking up flat plates from gym mats or floors.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the hole diameter?
The center hole measures 28mm to 30mm. This size fits standard bars but is too small for 50mm Olympic-sized rods.
Are cast iron weight plates better than PVC?
Cast iron provides higher density and a smaller footprint than PVC. These won't leak sand or crack like plastic-coated weights.
