Micro Gainz - Multi-color Olympic Size Fractional Weight Plates Set of 10 Plates .25LB-1.25LB w/ Bag

The set includes 10 Multi-Color Olympic size micro plates. These micro plates are designed to provide precise weight increments, allowing for gradual and controlled progression in various lifting disciplines. The comprehensive collection features a variety of weights, each distinguished by a specific color, which aids in quick identification during training sessions.

Specifically, the set contains two green plates, each weighing .25 pounds. These are ideal for the smallest incremental increases, perfect for breaking through plateaus or fine-tuning lifts. Additionally, there are two yellow plates, with each plate weighing .50 pounds, offering another precise option for progressive overload. For slightly heavier adjustments, the set includes two blue plates, each weighing .75 pounds, providing a balanced step up in weight. The collection is further enhanced by two red plates, each weighing 1 pound, which are useful for more significant, yet still controlled, increases. Finally, two black plates, each weighing 1.25 pounds, complete the range of micro plates, offering the largest fractional increment in the set. To ensure convenient transport and organized storage of these precision weights, a Micro Gainz Carrying Bag is also included as part of this complete set. This bag helps keep the plates together and protected, making them easy to take to the gym or store at home.

The item description highlights several key features of these micro plates. They are made from sintered metal, a manufacturing process that results in a dense and durable product, ensuring longevity and consistent performance. The production of these plates takes place in Pennsylvania, USA, reflecting a commitment to domestic manufacturing and quality control. Each plate is engineered for exceptional accuracy, adhering to a strict tolerance of plus or minus 5 grams from its specified weight. This precise calibration is vital for lifters who require exact weight adjustments to optimize their training and achieve specific strength goals.

Furthermore, these micro plates meet the International Powerlifting Federation Guidelines for weight accuracy. This compliance underscores their suitability for serious training, competitive preparation, and any scenario where precise weight measurement is paramount. The design of the plates ensures broad compatibility with standard Olympic weight lifting bars, as they are specifically crafted to fit bars with a 2-inch diameter. This universal fit makes them a versatile addition to most home or commercial gym setups.

Each plate features a high quality multi-color powder coat finish. This durable finish not only provides a distinct and vibrant appearance, making it easy to differentiate between weights at a glance, but also offers a protective layer against wear and tear. All plates in the set maintain a uniform diameter of 3.5 inches. While their diameter remains consistent, their thicknesses vary according to their respective weights. This design consideration ensures that despite their small weight increments, the plates are robust and easy to handle during loading and unloading from the bar. The combination of precise manufacturing, durable materials, and thoughtful design makes these micro plates a valuable tool for any lifter focused on incremental progress.
