CAP Barbell 25 lb Black Olympic Weight Plate

$1 for 1lb is a good deal. Walmart charges more than $1 for their standard weight plates.

These are iron with a matte black finish painted on.

It''s for olympic weight bars. Olympic weight bars have bearings on the ends that allow the weights to rotate with momentum so you are less jerked by that momentum.

On ebay I found plates for $1 per llb also but you need to buy $150-$300 kits. I like being able to accumulate plates slowly for what I need, and I don''t need 150lbs since an olympic bar alone is 40lbs.

The cheapest would be to find these at a yard sale or a fitness business going out-of-business. But I didn''t have any luck finding either of those things. Olympic plates are much rarer I''ve found.

Hope that helps.

These are well built cast iron weights and this is what matters. I prefer the gold lettering of Gold''s Gym weights, but its no big. The reason I used an asterix is because one side of the weight plate is covered in stickers. They do not simply peel off. The glue has hardened and you will only be able to peel half of the sticker and the gum residue remains where you did manage to tear off the outer paper layer of the sticker. So, I soaked the weights in some detergent solution to break down the glue and then used those plastic scrubbies to get the sticker residue off the weight. You should know that the result of this arduous and completely ridiculous and unnecessary chore is a scratched plate as the scrubbing inevitably removes some of the black paint. It took a long time to do this to 4 weight plates. I imagine most will just leave the stickers on, so expect to do one of these 2 options with these sticker plagued plates.

It is round, black and 25 lbs. Like other people said, the paint job really is silly. Whoever painted the gray lettering smeared gray paint outside of the lettering. Oh well, for the price, you can''t complain.
