Keep your workout space safe and organised with our range of weight plate storage and barbell storage. These are a great way to keep your gear off the ground and stored away safely.
Standard or Olympic?
Weight plates come in two basic sizes – standard weight and Olympic-style (including bumper) They’re both useful for different types of exercises.
Olympic weight plates are usually preferred by people lifting heavier weights. The barbells used are stronger, have rotating shafts, and in most cases cost more than a regular barbell. NC Fitness Olympic weight plates are a rubber-coated plate with Ezi grip holes, and have a 51mm centre hole diameter so they will fit nearly all Olympic barbells.
Olympic weight plates are designed to be repeatedly dropped onto a lifting platform. These are great for people who are performing Crossfit exercises. As they are made from solid rubber, they do cost a little more.
Change plates or fractional plates are mini Olympic weight plates. They are made in smaller sizes ranging in weight fractions from 0.25kg to 5kg.
