Features and Benefits
Natural Texture
Originally made for the automotive industry, e-coating has become increasingly popular due to its great durability and excellent rust resistance. Although it’s applied in a thin layer, the smooth texture still allows the natural grit of the iron underneath to be felt.
Easy to Clean
Thought that glossy e-coat was just pretty to look at? Oh, silly you. Since the coating binds directly to the iron in a smooth layer, it has fewer grooves for chalk, sweat and bacteria to hide. One quick wipe and your plates are squeaky clean.
Perfect Fit
In an act of desperation, lifters often resort to using washers or magnets to create makeshift 0.5 lb plates. Sadly, they either don’t fit on the sleeve of your barbell or they fall off mid-set. With these 0.5lb fractional plates, they’ll actually fit on the sleeve of your Olympic barbell and stay on as they should.
40 Years of Experience
Our e-coat fractional plates are cast in a specialty casting factory with over 40 years of experience, for reliable quality and workmanship that you can trust.

My overall experience was A-One top notch. I had a question before I made my purchase which was quickly answered. When I made my purchase it was easy, delivery communication was good and the produce was exactly as described. I would recommend both Bells of Steel and these fractional plates.
