The Rogue competition bumpers are on the higher-end level of competition bumper plate in the market. The quality is remarkably robust. They are an IWF standard 450MM in diameter, with chrome-plated steel disc inserts and a 50.40MM collar opening for a firm, solid hold. They have a tight weight tolerance and a thinner profile, so you can add more weight to the bar. If you are into overall fitness, powerlifting, or CrossFit, these Olympic plates are perfect for you.
They are being used by different weightlifting teams inside and outside of competitions and are made to handle any kind of abuse. The Competition Plates have an average measurement of 94 and present a constant dead blow with minimum bounce found in high-end Olympic weightlifting bumpers. You don’t have to worry about spending time chasing your bar around the gym, as they have a minimal bounce. The plates have been furnished with a gloss-matte-gloss textured matte finish and raised lettering for a bolder look and easy identification.
These plates also have a raised rubber surface that is now added to avoid direct metal-on-metal contact between the center discs. A comfortable lip on the side of the plate also makes it simpler to pick up from the rack or off the ground. Rogue Competition Plates come in four vibrant colors: Red – 55LB Blue – 45LB Yellow – 35LB Green – 25LB
