If you lift at home and need a full loadable set, this 80kg tri-grip set runs from 1.25kg micro plates up to 20kg discs, matched across both sides for balanced loading on an Olympic bar. The 50mm holes fit standard Olympic sleeves, and the triple-handle cut-outs make each plate easy to carry and load one-handed.

It suits a lifter who wants commercial-grade plates that are kind to floors and equipment, since each plate is encased in heavy-duty rubber over inner steel rings. The spread of pairs, including four 1.25kg plates, gives you small jumps for progressive overload as you get stronger.

Is this olympic plate set right for you?

This olympic plate set is right for you if:

  • You load an Olympic bar with 50mm sleeves and want a full 80kg spread across six pairs
  • You lift at home or in a commercial gym and want rubber-encased plates that protect your floors and equipment
  • You like the tri-grip design for carrying and loading plates one-handed
  • You want a commercial-grade set with integrated steel rings for a secure fit on the bar

Look at another option if:

  • You do Olympic lifts or drop the bar from height: these are rubber-coated plates, not bumpers, so you need a true bumper set
  • You only train with lighter dumbbells or bodyweight and rarely load a barbell
  • You have a standard 25mm bar and need plates to match that hole diameter instead
  • You want to start small and add weight gradually, so a smaller set suits you better for now

Adela's Take

What stands out is the tri-grip shape: those three cutouts let you deadlift, curl or press without a bar, so these plates double as handled weights when you need them.

With 2.5kg and 1.25kg pairs in the set, you can add as little as 2.5kg to the bar at a time. The rubber encasing is the real win: it protects your floors and equipment.

Commercial-Grade Rubber-Encased Build

Each plate is encased in heavy-duty rubber over inner steel rings, built to a commercial grade so it stands up to daily loading in a busy home or commercial gym.

The rubber coating cushions the impact when you set the bar down and keeps the finish on your floor intact.

  • Commercial grade construction
  • Encased in heavy-duty rubber with inner steel rings
  • 12 Months parts replacement warranty

What this means for you: Built to take repeated loading while protecting your floors, walls and equipment.

Tri-Grip Handle Design

The three cut-out grips let you carry, load and change plates one-handed without fumbling a 20kg disc onto your foot.

In practice, the Tri-Grip shape makes moving plates around the rack far easier than a flat disc.

  • Tri-Grip handle design
  • Three ergonomic grip cut-outs per plate
  • Easier one-handed carrying and loading

What this means for you: Handling and swapping plates mid-session is quick and secure.

50mm Olympic Bar Compatibility

The 50mm centre hole fits standard Olympic bar sleeves, so these plates slide straight onto any Olympic bar with 50mm sleeves.

  • 50mm hole diameter
  • Fits Olympic sized bar sleeves
  • Works with any standard Olympic bar

What this means for you: No adapters needed if your setup already runs Olympic bars.

Complete 80kg Plate Set with Pairs

The set totals 80kg across matched pairs, so you can balance both ends of the bar and build weight in small, even steps as you progress.

The spread of denominations means you can make jumps as small as 2.5kg on the bar.

  • Total weight: 80kg
  • 2 x 20kg, 2 x 10kg, 2 x 5kg, 2 x 2.5kg, 4 x 1.25kg
  • Smallest loaded increment: 2.5kg per bar (1.25kg per side)

What this means for you: Enough range to load your main lifts and still fine-tune progression week to week.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the 80kg set?

You get a full spread: 2 x 20kg, 2 x 10kg, 2 x 5kg, 2 x 2.5kg and 4 x 1.25kg, totalling 80kg. That mix lets you load a bar in small jumps, which matters when you're adding 1.25kg a side to keep progressing. It's enough plate to build real strength on compound lifts for most home lifters.

Will these plates fit my Olympic barbell?

Yes. The hole diameter is 50mm, so they slide onto any standard Olympic sized bar sleeve. If your bar has 50mm sleeves, these are a match. They won't fit a standard 25mm bar, so check your bar's sleeve diameter before ordering if you're unsure which one you have.

Can I drop these plates?

No. These are rubber-coated plates, not bumpers, so they aren't built to be dropped from height. The heavy-duty rubber over inner steel rings protects your floor, walls and equipment when you set the bar down or knock a plate. Lower the bar under control, and put a rubber gym mat underneath, especially on concrete or upstairs.

Why the tri-grip design?

The three cut-out handles make the plates far easier to carry and load, which you'll appreciate every time you shift a 20kg plate across the room. Tri-grip also makes them simpler to grab for plate-loaded exercises. In my experience it's a small detail that saves your fingers and your back over years of training.

How much space do I need to store them?

A weight tree or plate rack keeps the set tidy and off the floor, which I'd strongly recommend over stacking them. Rubber-encased plates are thicker than bare iron of the same weight, so leave a little extra room on the sleeve. Plan for a storage spot before the set arrives so you're not tripping over plates.

What warranty do these plates come with?

They 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. Keep your order details handy so we can process any claim quickly.

What happens if a plate arrives damaged?

Take photos before unpacking fully and send them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We'll lodge the freight claim and organise a replacement plate, and stay across it until you're sorted. You don't deal with the courier or manufacturer directly, that's our job.
