Cast Iron Weight Training Disc Weight 1 kg 28 mm

Why choose cast iron instead of plastic or vinyl bumper weights?

- Cast iron is a dense material that is more compact than vinyl, which means you can add more discs to the bar (up to 32 kg on one dumbbell bar)

- Cast iron lasts a lifetime, unlike plastic or vinyl, which can wear out within a year.

- Cast iron is less affected by temperature changes so you can use it in a range of conditions.

Why should you use cast iron weights?

- Cast iron better withstands shocks, drops and crushing (5 times better) than vinyl.

- Cast iron has a textured surface for excellent grip even when your hands are damp, unlike plastic, which can be slippery.



Choosing our cast iron weights means you can work out confidently and efficiently.

Use disc collars to train safely

It is essential to have a disc collar to secure weights on your bars or dumbbells. It prevents the weight from slipping during your exercises.

Our Smart Disc Collars are sold in pairs, since you need 2 for one bar, or 4 if you train with 2 dumbbells (ref: 8574652).

Keep your cast iron plates for longer by storing them correctly

Cast iron weight training disc plates will virtually last forever if they're kept far from moisture.

Store them in a dry place.

Dust them with a damp cloth from time to time.

Store them on your storage rack (ref: 8788246), a wall rack for plates (ref: 8796727) or on the bottom of a piece of furniture.

Our coach gives you some ideas for using your cast iron weights

If you have a dumbbell bar, you can do a standing press with one or two dumbbells.



Shoulder and triceps exercise:

- Standing press, 4×8 to 10 reps



At the end of your sets, try to have a 2 rep margin. Increase the number of reps and load as you improve.
