CAP Barbell 2インチ オリンピックグリップウェイトプレート 5ポンド 4枚セット 5ポンド 4枚セット 5ポンド 4枚セット ブラック (OPHWIS-005)

These barbell plates are very high-quality iron, and you can really feel the difference compared to typical commercial gym plates — in a good way. Solid, durable, and well-finished. Highly recommended.

Excellent

I bought these in 2023 and put them on my bar once and never again. The hole in these weights was like very sharp 36 grit sandpaper. I have a very nice and expensive bar and didnt want to grind down the surface of my bar with these. Over the next almost 2 years I used them for other things occasionally like on my plate load cable set up. These are typically half a pound or more over weight( check my pictures the green one on the right was within 3 grams of its stated weight). They have lots of sharp edges and some are very sandy. The paint is decent , probably their best feature, but they stick on that label (that is huge and doesnt want to come off) and the sandy ones look bad anyway. For the last year they were serving as counter weight on my leg curl machine. I recently wanted some small calibrated weights which are ridiculously expensive (nearly $20 a pound plus shipping)! I decided to fix the hole in these and weigh them to see if they would work for what I wanted in conjunction with the .25 to 2.5 lb set I recently bought here on amazon to creep some sticking weights up. After I ground the hole smooth I deburred them as they needed it. That was not enough to bring them to their proper weight so I decided to drill holes in them to get the weight correct. I would have rather thinned them out on a lathe but I dont have access to one right now. I used a triple beam scale and drilled till they were within 10 grams (.02lbs) of their stated weight. All went well until the ugliest 5 ( I did the 5's first) ate the step bit I was using. The 2 1/2's were a major pain I went through 2 carbide bits getting though them. Since I breached the paint and finally scraped off that big white label! I painted them Olympic committee coloring ( I know I used the kg color on the 5's as I had a can of red and no blue). I am happily using them now but I spent about $20 plus my time to refurbish them to be what I wanted. All in all, I dont recommend these unless you get them super cheap and you are ok with the bad features.

Perfect

It's great.
