230 lb Bumper Plate Set230 lb Bumper Plate Set Vulcan Bumper Plates Sets are built to endure the rigors of Olympic Weightlifting. Unlike lower priced brands, our Bumper Plates are made of a harder and denser rubber compound. As a result, our Bumper Plates have a much thinner profile and more plates can be fit on the bar . Others claim to have equivalent rubber hardness, but their 10 lb and 15 lb bumper plates "waffle" easily when dropped. The typical Bumper Plate has a thin pressed steel insert which will come out over time with repeated droppings. Our inserts are forged solid steel and anchored into the plate. We were the first to introduce this technology in 2010 and to this day we still have gyms using the original Vulcan Bumper plates from our first batch. One of the things you will immediately notice when lifting our bumper plates is how snugly they fit together on the bar as well as the dead blow/low bounce effect they exhibit when dropped. It's a very noticeable sound compared to the clanking rattling noise and basketball-like rebounding you will experience with lesser brands.

After months of searching for some bumpers, I finally decided on the Vulcan 230lb Set and couldnt be happier. The have very little bounce, so that your bar doesnt go off on its own. The packaging they were delivered in was great. Overall I am very happy and definitely will be purchasing more when needed.
