Our Calibrated Plate Range 

Our stock of calibrated gym equipment features calibrated plate sets, pairs and calibrated competition collars (sold individually).

The weight tolerance and high-quality build of our calibrated plates will elevate your strength training performance with ease.

Our calibrated weight plates are manufactured with precision to ensure their weighting is correct and meets competition standards. Accurate weights are great for monitoring your workout performance or training for weightlifting competitions. No matter your needs, our calibrated plate range is essential for your gym equipment setup.

Here’s what you can expect from our range of calibrated plates.

Pairs of Calibrated Plates

Our calibrated cast iron weight plates are colour-coded according to their mass. International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) colour coding allows for easy identification of your different calibrated disc pairs.

These colour-coded discs are sold in pairs, with weights ranging from 2.5kg to 25kg. If you’re in need of calibrated Olympic plates, this is the range for you. Each calibrated plate is designed with a 2-inch centre hole that is compatible with Olympic barbells.

Calibrated Weight Plate Packages

With our sets of colour-coded calibrated plates, you get the versatility of multiple weights from one convenient purchase. Our sets contain multiple weight plates and a barbell so that you can get to building strength straight away.

A calibrated plate set can increase your training flexibility and help improve your performance in several ways. Each full set contains a variety of weight discs, as well as a power bar with a maximum loading weight of over 908kg. This arms you with everything you need to gain strength and increase the load at your own pace.

Calibrated Change Plates

We stock a selection of lightweight calibrated plates for sale, with pairs ranging from 0.25kg to 1.25kg. The small weight increments of these silver-finished change plates make them vital pieces of weightlifting gear for those focusing on progressive overload. 

Whether you’re a beginner looking to slowly build up to your target load or a professional athlete wanting to smash a personal best, these weights are the perfect addition to your gym equipment collection.

Calibrated Competition Collars

Our calibrated collars prevent your plates from moving or sliding on the barbell when in use. These collars are designed with International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) standards in mind, so you can be sure they are of the highest quality.

Their robust build makes them a great fit for weightlifting competitions. Collars also offer increased stability and security to help boost your performance and give you extra peace of mind during training.

FAQs

Are calibrated plates worth it?

If you’re looking to lift heavy loads or train competitively, calibrated plates are an essential purchase.

If you need calibrated plates for a high-traffic commercial gym, where they might be dropped or used frequently, you should prioritise durability. Rather than buying the cheapest calibrated plates you can find, look for high-quality materials like cast iron to ensure your plates pass the test of time.

The weight accuracy of calibrated plates makes them suitable for use in a variety of strength competitions. They’re also great for meticulously monitoring your strength performance. Calibrated plates feature a thinner profile than standard plates, enabling you to stack more plates onto your bar without compromising on stability.

What’s the difference between calibrated cast iron and steel powerlifting plates?

When it comes to powerlifting equipment, two of the most popular high-quality options for calibrated powerlifting plates are calibrated steel plates and calibrated cast-iron plates. Not only are these ideal for competition training, but they are also great for general strength workouts.

Steel plates offer a reliable combination of accuracy and durability. However, cast-iron plates are also extremely durable and, if calibrated like our range at Factory Weights, can be just as accurate as calibrated steel plates. Cast-iron weight plates are also cheaper than calibrated steel plates, making them the more cost-effective choice.
