COLOR-CODED
Weights are color-coded to International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) standards for easy identification of how much weight is on the bar. -
MAX DURABILITY
Steel center inserts and extra thick 5kg plates provide maximum durability. Plates are factory-tested to withstand more than 12,000 drops from a height of 8 feet. -
VERSATILITY
Bumpers are excellent for Olympic weightlifting and cross-training/HIIT-style workouts, where dropping the barbell from overhead or shoulder height is common, but they're also useful for powerlifting.

Bumper plates are manufactured to withstand drops onto the floor, which is desirable for Olympic weightlifting (snatch, clean and jerk, hang cleans), where you often drop the plates onto the ground. Iron plates are better for lifts that do not involve the weights hitting the ground (such as bench press, squats, and curls), because they can cause damage to the floor, the barbell, and to the plates themselves.
When bumper plates arrive, unpack, and let them air out for a few days to allow any odor, however faint, to air out.
To extend their life span, try to drop plates as close to straight down as possible. If your bar collars get loose during a workout, try to retighten them so your plates always land straight up and down. This will lessen the sideways force on the bumper plate insert. Also, flooring with some type of give (like heavy-duty rubber mats or a weightlifting platform) will help absorb some of the impact from dropping the plates.
We do not recommend this, because iron and bumper plates can have slightly different diameters, meaning all the force from dropping the weights goes into the larger plate, causing those plates and your barbell to wear more quickly. It is best to keep all plates on your bar of the same type.
Yes, the 5kg plates come with a 6-month warranty for both home and commercial use. The 10, 15, 20, and 25kg plates come with a 3-year warranty for home use and a 1-year warranty for commercial use.
Please note, though, that the warranty is void if the bumper plates are mixed with Hi-Temp Bumper Plates. Hi-Temps have a smaller diameter than regular plates, which means a bar loaded with a mix of REP's bumper plates and Hi-Temps will result in the bumper plates taking all of the load, causing them to degrade faster.

- Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoGood Looking Strong Plates
The bumper plate set and the change plate set we ordered at the same time let our gym accommodate Olympic lifters. (Everyone else thinks in pounds thanks to our failure to switch to the metric system in the 1970's.) They are all good looking plates, seem extremely strong, and don't bounce much. They are a little thicker than others I've seen, but in the long run I believe this will provide better durability.
