Ghisata 847 Bumper Plate Pair

Ghisata 847 is urethane-coated steel, within 2% — the tolerance that decides whether both ends of a loaded bar actually weigh the same.

Raised lettering on the face is deep enough to read across a room and flat enough to stack tight against the next plate.

The rubber is bonded to a steel insert rather than moulded around bare iron, so the bore stays round after a few hundred drops. Three years of daily use leave it looking used rather than worn out.

Care

Brush the knurl with a nylon brush and wipe the shaft dry after use; chalk plus sweat is what pits a bar.
