Xpeed CPU Competition Bumper Plates
Built for serious lifters, the Xpeed CPU Competition Bumper Plates are constructed from high-grade Casted Polyurethane (CPU), providing unparalleled durability, resistance to wear, and a premium look that lasts. Unlike traditional rubber plates, these plates are made entirely of CPU, which offers a harder surface that is highly resistant to scuffs, scratches, and fading. Ideal for commercial gyms or elite home setups, these plates are designed to withstand rigorous, high-volume use.
Featuring a precision-engineered stainless steel insert, these plates provide an expansive surface area that efficiently distributes impact. This ensures enhanced shock absorption and reduces wear on the plate, even with repeated drops, making them perfect for high-intensity lifting and powerlifting PBs. The plates are colour-coded to IWF standards, allowing for easy weight identification in competitive and training environments.
| Plate Thickness | Weight & Colour |
|---|---|
| 5kg | 23mm - Grey |
| 10kg | 30mm - Green |
| 15kg | 42mm - Yellow |
| 20kg | 50mm - Blue |
| 25kg | 63mm - Red |

What's the difference between Training Bumper Plates and Competition Bumper Plates?
The difference between competition bumper plates and training bumper plates lies primarily in their specifications, design, and intended use:
Specifications:
- Competition Bumper Plates: These plates are manufactured to meet the strict standards set by international weightlifting organizations for competitive events. They adhere to specific weight tolerances and dimensions, ensuring consistency and accuracy during competitions.
- Training Bumper Plates: Training plates are designed for everyday use in training environments such as gyms, home setups, or fitness facilities. While they may still meet quality standards, they may have slightly looser weight tolerances compared to competition plates.
Design and Construction:
- Competition Bumper Plates: Competition plates typically feature a thinner profile compared to training plates, allowing for more weight to be loaded onto the barbell. They often have a reinforced steel or stainless steel inner ring to maintain structural integrity during high-impact drops.
- Training Bumper Plates: Training plates may have a thicker profile and a wider colour range for easy identification of different weights. They are also constructed to withstand regular use and abuse in training environments, but may not have the same level of precision engineering as competition plates.
Intended Use:
- Competition Bumper Plates: These plates are specifically designed for use in official weightlifting competitions, where precise weight measurement and consistency are paramount. They are not typically used for general training purposes due to their specialised design and higher cost.
- Training Bumper Plates: Training plates are suitable for a wide range of strength training exercises, including Olympic lifts, powerlifting movements, and general strength training. They are versatile, durable, and well-suited for everyday use by athletes and fitness enthusiasts of all levels.
Price and Availability:
- Competition Bumper Plates: Due to their specialised design and adherence to strict standards, competition plates are often more expensive than training plates. They may also have limited availability, as they are primarily produced for competitive use.
- Training Bumper Plates: Training plates are more readily available and come at a more affordable price point compared to competition plates. They are widely used in gyms and fitness centers worldwide, catering to the needs of athletes and lifters in various training settings.
In summary, while both competition bumper plates and training bumper plates serve the purpose of facilitating weightlifting and strength training, they differ in terms of specifications, design, intended use and price point. Catering to the specific requirements of either your competitive events versus your everyday training environments.
Can bumper plates be used on any barbell?
Bumper plates are designed to be used on 'Olympic' sized barbells, which have a 50mm diameter sleeve diameter. While they can technically fit on other barbells, it's recommended to use them with Olympic bars for optimal performance and safety.
Are bumper plates safe for dropping?
Yes, bumper plates are specifically designed to be dropped from overhead safely. However, proper technique and caution should always be practiced to minimise the risk of injury to yourself and damage to the equipment.
How do I store bumper plates?
Bumper plates should be stored in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Vertical plate storage racks or plate trees are commonly used to keep bumper plates organised and easily accessible.
