350 lb Bumper Plate Set Reviews

350 lb Bumper Plate SetBumper Plate Set Vulcan Bumper Plates are built to endure the rigors of Olympic Weightlifting and crossfit workouts. 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 have gyms still using our first release of bumper plates. 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.Bumper Plate Set Specifications: Made to IWF (International Weightlifting Federation) Standard: diameter 450mm (17.7165 inch); Solid Rubber Bumper Plates: made from virgin rubber, not recycled rubber; Low bounce: for safety; Safe for platform use; Vulcan Bumper Plates: have been tested to 30,000 drops from a height of 9 feet without any deformation of the insert or damage to the rubber surface.; Shore Durometer A: 88.7 - 89.1.

The 350lb bumper plate set and Olympic bar are exactly what I ordered and are being put to good use. I do wish I paid more attention to the specific plate design. No hand hole grips. My faux pa for not paying more attention.

I was never a believer of bumper plates because I never used them. After the great reviews I went with Vulcan Strength Training Systems black bumpers. I weighed each plate on the scale I weigh myself on. Maybe not the most accurate, but was good enough for me. The plates are pretty damn accurate. Most were spot on while a few were just a few tenths above stated weight. Definitely my go-to. They fit my bar extremely well. I'm giving them two thumbs up or 5 stars, whichever you like better. Awesome product and awesome customer service.

The only problem I had was one of the plates was a bit too snug due to the steel insert, but they sent a new plate without issue just a few days later. That should tell you that these plates don't have any wiggle room, which is great, it'll keep your bar and plates in better condition longer. The dead bounce really is a dead bounce. There's not much bounce to these at all. The bar doesn't roll around on the mat before a pull like some other plates cause either. I can't account for the durability since I've only had them a few weeks but so far so good. They seem very sturdy and durable so we'll see. I'll update if anything about them change.
