Our middle-tier bumpers are the Conflict Bumper Weight Plates. These high-visibility plates have vibrant colors to provide instant weight identification. They have low-to-medium shock absorption for predictable control.
The Crumb Bumper Weight Plates are our most economical bumper. They’re made from 100% recycled rubber — resulting in significantly more bounce — but have a thick stainless steel hub with 3 anchor points to improve their lifespan.
The Mighty Grip Weight Plates are our most economical iron plate option. They are cast iron plates with a hammertone finish; a coating that prevents rust and helps to make the plate more aesthetically pleasing. They feature large, ergonomic holes that ease the process of loading and unloading plates on the bar and allow them to be used for a multitude of exercises like farmer’s carries, shrugs, and steering wheels.
The Machined Weight Plates are our middle-tier option. Equipped with the same hammertone finish, these plates have an extra-precise center hole to ensure a snug fit on your bar. Being slightly thinner, they allow for more plates to be loaded on your bar — putting them at a slightly higher price point.
Finally, our 0.5lb Fractional Weight Plate Set allows for better loading on your isolation exercises. Complete with 8 fractional plates weighing 0.5lbs each, you can choose to add 1-4 pounds to the barbell lift of your choice for easier PRs.

Bumper plates are rubber coated, offering better protection to your equipment and flooring than traditional iron plates. This also makes them ideal for Olympic weightlifting, due to frequent drops from hip, shoulder and overhead positions.
Cast iron plates are more affordable due to their no-frills design. They’re also fairly thick, though the large handles make them easy to hold.
Bumper plates are rubber coated, offering better protection to your equipment and flooring than traditional iron plates. This also makes them ideal for Olympic weightlifting, due to frequent drops from hip, shoulder and overhead positions.
Machined iron plates have a precision-cut center hole to ensure a tight fit on your barbell. Also, they’re thinner and more accurate than traditional iron plates.
Both the Mighty Grip Cast Iron Plates and the Machined Iron Weight Plates are intended for powerlifting and general strength training. That said, neither of these plates are appropriate for the Olympic lifts — you’ll definitely want bumper plates for those.
Novices will be fine with cast iron plates. Intermediate and advanced lifters, powerlifters, and those who highly value precision will want to consider upgrading to more accurate weight plates.
