Vulcan
Bumper Plates are built to endure the rigors of Olympic Weightlifting and
CrossFit® workouts. Unlike other brands, our Bumper Plates are made of a harder
and denser rubber compound. As a result, our Bumper Plates have a much thinner
profile and more plates can be fit on the bar.
Others
claim to have equivalent rubber hardness, but their 10lb and 15lb bumper plates
"waffle" easily when dropped. The typical Bumper Plate has a thin
pressed steel insert which will come out over time with repeated droppings. Our
inserts are forged solid steel and anchored into the plate. We were the first
to introduce this technology in 2011.
One of
the things you will immediately notice when lifting our bumper plates is the
dead blow/low bounce effect they exhibit when dropped. It's very noticeable
compared to the clanking rattling noise and basketball-like rebounding you will
experience with lesser quality brands.
