415 lb Bumper Plate and Olympic Bar Set - A

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.
