The XMARK Competition Powerlifting Plates are meticulously crafted to meet the highest standards of precision and performance for powerlifting. Each plate is machine calibrated to ensure a weight accuracy of ±10 grams, which is equivalent to the weight of two US nickels. This makes them ideal for serious lifters who demand consistency in their training and competition. The plates are designed with a snug 50mm center hole diameter, ensuring a secure fit on any standard barbell sleeve. This precision fit, combined with their uniformly thin profile, allows for more weight to be loaded onto the bar, a crucial advantage for elite and super heavyweight powerlifters.
Key features of these calibrated steel plates include:
• Precision weight accuracy of ±10 grams
• Snug 50mm center hole diameter for secure barbell fit
• Color-coded design with raised, white lettering for easy identification
• Adherence to IPF color and diameter standards, making them competition-ready
• Slim design to maximize load capacity on the barbell
• Durable powder coated steel construction
The color-coding system allows for quick identification of weights. For instance, 25kg plates are red, 20kg plates are blue, 15kg plates are yellow, and 10kg plates are green. The calibration process involves inserting a lead block inside brass plugs into a designated hole on the inside of the plate. This precisely adjusts the weight, ensuring accurate and reliable measurements for fair competition and effective training. Crafted from high-quality steel, these plates offer unmatched durability and longevity, capable of withstanding rigorous training sessions while maintaining their integrity and performance.
It is important to note that these plates should not be dropped intentionally. Dropping this type of plate can damage both the plates and your floors. Powerlifting emphasizes proper technique and controlled lowering of the barbell. These plates are suitable for various powerlifting exercises, including the squat, bench press, and deadlift, and can also be incorporated into overhead presses and barbell rows. While the plates are powder coated, some paint transfer to the barbell may occur due to steel-to-steel contact during loading and unloading; this can be wiped off the bar.
These calibrated steel plates are an excellent choice for competitive lifters needing precise weights for performance and adherence to standards. They are also highly recommended for powerlifting enthusiasts who require durable and accurately calibrated equipment for their training sessions, as well as individuals focused on strength training to enhance muscle growth and power effectively.
