45 lb Bumper Plates45 lb Bumper Plates 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, resulting in a much thinner profile that allows for more plates to fit on the bar. Other brands claim to have equivalent rubber hardness, but their 10 lb and 15 lb bumper plates often "waffle" easily when dropped. Additionally, they offer minimal or no posted warranty on their bumper plates and state that their plates are not made for dropping. Vulcan Bumper Plates are made to be dropped! The typical bumper plate has a thin pressed steel insert that can detach over time with repeated drops. Our inserts are forged solid steel and anchored into the plate. We were the first to introduce this technology in 2011, and to this day, we have replaced fewer than two dozen bumper plates out of thousands of tons sold. One noticeable feature of our bumper plates is how snugly they fit together on the bar, along with the dead blow/low bounce effect they exhibit when dropped. This creates a distinct sound compared to the clanking and basketball-like rebounding typical of lesser brands.45 lb Bumper Plates Specifications: Diameter: Made to IWF (International Weightlifting Federation) standard: 450 mm (17.7 inches); Material: Solid rubber bumper plates made from virgin rubber (not recycled); Bounce: Low bounce for safety; Platform Use: Safe for platform use; Testing: Tested to withstand 30,000 drops from a height of 9 feet without deformation or damage; Shore Durometer: A rating of 88.7 - 89.1.

Bought another pair of 45 lb. black bumper plates and couldn't be happier. They are low-bounce, low-odor, and super durable. I will continue to come back for more.

I have been shopping for a great set of Bumper plates with realistic pricing. Ordered 270lbs of Bumper plates and could not be more pleased with what I received. Customer service Britney and Greta were outstanding with their communication and friendliness. Highly recommend their products.

So far so good. I don't have anything bad to say about the 45lbs plates. They do as expected and hold up well. Will be buying more in the future. Packaging was great. Box didn't break at all.
