Titan's KG Technique Weight Plates offer a great option for any lifter looking for an affordable and durable way to safely gain better control when performing Olympic lifts. This set of plates is built from a cast iron core and coated with a protective, durable powder-coat finish that ensures a long life of usage. The plates have an exclusive 4 hole design which offers improved grip, allowing the lifter to effectively and safely load the bar and unload it with ease. They feature a raised 60mm diameter system that makes positioning the exact weight easier, plus the thin profile of the plates allows for the use of smaller diameter collars. The weight plates are also color-coded to quickly distinguish between weight increments, with the labeled range starting at 2.5 kg (5lb) and increasing up to 25 kg (55lb). The plates have a cast in-centre hole that allows precision load placement on the bar and makes loading the bar a breeze. This set of plates is the perfect tool for any lifter looking to build muscle, strength, and power with Olympic weightlifting and for a great price.
