Fitvids Cast Iron Swing Weight Plate

Overview

Fitvids' QD740-RW-20-2 is a cast iron weight plate listed at 20 pounds in black, categorized under standard barbell plates.

Cast iron is the traditional plate material, denser than rubber-coated options at the same diameter, so a 20 pound cast iron plate typically sits smaller and takes less rack space than a rubber-coated equivalent. The listing does not specify whether it ships as a single plate or a pair.

Who it's for

Suits home gym owners assembling a cast iron plate set who prioritize rack space over the quieter drop of rubber plates. Not the choice for anyone needing bumper-rated plates for dropping, since cast iron is not built for that.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Cast iron plates transfer noise and shock directly to the bar and floor since there is no rubber buffer, a normal tradeoff for the smaller diameter and lower cost cast iron typically offers over coated plates.
