Specs At A Glance

Warranty12-month parts replacement warranty

If you train Olympic lifts or CrossFit and drop the bar from overhead, this 70 kg set gives you 2 x 5 kg, 2 x 10 kg and 2 x 20 kg plates built to take the hit on repeated drops. The dense, thinner profile means you can load more weight on a 50 mm Olympic bar before you run out of sleeve.

It suits a garage or commercial box that needs a full starting load across three pairs, with grooved edges that make the 450 mm plates easier to grip when you are stripping the bar between sets. The steel core and high density rubber are built to IWF standards, backed by a 12-month parts replacement warranty.

Is this bumper plate set right for you?

This bumper plate set is right for you if:

  • You train Olympic lifts or CrossFit and drop loaded bars from overhead or the hip
  • You want a full 70 kg starter set: two each of 5 kg, 10 kg and 20 kg plates
  • You run a 50 mm Olympic bar and want plates built to IWF sizing with a 450 mm diameter
  • You're kitting out a garage, commercial floor or functional gym where plates get dropped regularly

Look at another option if:

  • You only lift lighter and don't need the full 70 kg across six plates
  • You never drop the bar and lift on a solid bench setup, where cast-iron plates do the job
  • You want fine-increment plates like 2.5 kg or fractional changes for slow progression
  • You need a heavier total load now and would rather buy a larger set in one go

Adela's Take

What stands out is the dense, thinner profile: at 450 mm diameter but slimmer than standard, you fit more weight on the bar before plates start crowding the collars on heavy lifts.

At 70 kg total, the set tops out at 35 kg a side, so stronger lifters will want extra 20s. The grooved edges make rushed changeovers between sets genuinely easier.

70kg Bumper Set, Dense, Thin Profile

This 70kg set spans a 5kg to 20kg pair range, so you can scale from technique work to heavier Olympic lifts on one bar. The dense, thinner build packs more weight into less width, which frees up sleeve space when you load multiple plates.

The high density rubber is designed to withstand high-impact lifts and repeated drops.

  • Total set weight: 70 kg
  • Set composition: 2 x 5 kg, 2 x 10 kg, 2 x 20 kg
  • High density rubber with a steel core
  • Scratch-resistant heavy-duty rubber surface
  • Dense, thinner design for more weight per sleeve

What this means for you: A single set that covers warm-up lifts through to loaded Olympic work.

Cortex 70kg Black Series V3 Bumper Plate Set Engineered for Performance feature

Steel Core and 50mm Hole for Olympic Bars

The 50mm hole seats cleanly on a standard Olympic bar sleeve, so plates slide on and off quickly and easily. Grooved edges give your fingers something to grip, which makes loading and stripping a heavy bar faster between sets.

The steel ring core gives a secure fit on the bar and keeps its strength through intense, repeated drops.

  • Hole diameter: 50 mm for Olympic bars
  • Smooth steel ring core for easy loading
  • Grooved edges for improved handling
  • 450 mm plate diameter
Cortex 70kg Black Series V3 Bumper Plate Set Steel Ring Core for Easy Loading/Unloading feature

Built to IWF Standard, 450mm Diameter

These plates are built to IWF standards, with the 450mm diameter that sets correct bar height for cleans, snatches and deadlifts off the floor. Train on a bar that sits where competition plates sit and your pull mechanics stay consistent.

  • Designed to IWF standards
  • 450 mm plate diameter sets standard bar height
  • 50 mm hole diameter
  • Suited to Olympic lifting, functional fitness and CrossFit training

What this means for you: Your setup matches what you lift on in competition, so technique carries over.

All-Black Finish for Home or Commercial Floors

The scratch-resistant black rubber holds its look under heavy use, whether the set lives in a garage gym or a commercial floor. One colour across the set keeps the rack tidy.

  • Scratch-resistant heavy-duty rubber surface
  • Black colour across the full set
  • Rated for gym, commercial or home use
  • 12-month parts replacement warranty

What this means for you: Hard-wearing enough for a shared commercial floor, tidy enough for a home gym.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 70kg set actually include?

You get six plates in three matched pairs: 2 x 5 kg, 2 x 10 kg and 2 x 20 kg, for 70 kg total. All sit on a standard 50 mm Olympic hole, so they slide straight onto any 50 mm Olympic bar. It's a sensible starter spread that covers light accessory work through to heavier compound lifts.

Are these bumper plates okay to drop from overhead?

Yes, that's exactly what they're built for. The high density rubber with a steel core absorbs the impact of a dropped Olympic lift, which is why they suit CrossFit and Olympic lifting. For home use I'd still lay down a lifting platform or rubber matting to look after your floor and keep the bounce predictable.

Will these plates fit my barbell?

If you have an Olympic barbell, yes. The 50 mm hole diameter matches any standard Olympic sleeve, so these load straight on. They won't fit a 25 mm standard bar. The 450 mm diameter is full competition height, so your bar sits at the correct loading position for pulls from the floor.

How much space do I need to store them?

Each plate is 450 mm across, so a basic vertical plate tree or a horizontal storage peg handles the full set in a small footprint. The thinner, dense design means you fit more weight per bar sleeve too. I'd keep them off the floor on a rack, both to protect the rubber and to save your back loading up.

Who is this set best suited to?

Best for serious functional fitness, Olympic lifting and CrossFit training, at home or in a commercial gym. The grooved edges make the plates easier to grip and change, and the dense build handles repeated drops. If you're lifting heavier than 70 kg regularly, treat this as a base set and add more pairs as you progress.

How long is the warranty?

These come with a 12-month parts replacement warranty, handled by us here in Australia. If a plate has a genuine fault within that period, contact our team and we'll sort a replacement. Treated with normal gym use on a suitable surface, a good bumper plate set lasts well beyond the warranty term.

What happens if a plate arrives damaged?

Take photos before and during unpacking and send them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We'll lodge the freight claim and organise a replacement plate for you. You won't need to deal with the courier or chase anyone yourself, that's our job to manage until your set is complete.
