Every step there, nothing to reorder
Eighteen plates, every weight in a pair – from the 0.25 up to the 25. That lets you load cleanly and symmetrically, and with a 20 kg barbell you reach 179 kg. It covers the biggest part of what happens daily in a powerlifting setup: squat, bench, deadlift, plus the small jumps that progression really hangs on. Half a kilo more than last week is no longer an estimate, it is a loading plan.
Steel, calibrated, colour coded throughout
Calibrated means this on these powerlifting plates: after production each one is weighed individually and brought into line with fine weights on the back – powder coating included, which otherwise likes to sneak in a few extra grams. Every plate ends up inside the IPF rule of 0.25 percent or 10 grams of the face value – on the 20 that is 50 grams. At the core sits solid steel instead of cast iron, so the plates build flatter and take more punishment than cast. The colour code runs through the whole set: silver for the three fine plates, black for the 2.5, white for the 5 – and going up, green, yellow, blue through to the red of the 25.

Customer reviews
Most setups don't fall down at the heavy end, but at the fine end. You have 20s and 25s on the shelf but no 1.25s – so you jump from 140 to 145 and wonder why it isn't working. This set closes exactly those gaps, from the bottom to the top.
