help Rogue Competition Plates FAQ
What is the diameter of the center hole on Rogue Competition Plates?
They feature a standard 50.4 millimeter center hole designed to perfectly fit a 50mm Olympic barbell sleeve. The center ring is made of high-quality steel, contrasting with the solid rubber construction of standard training bumper plates.
Are Rogue Competition Plates color-coded by weight?
Yes, they follow the strict color-coding standards set by the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF). For example, the 25kg plates are red, the 20kg plates are blue, and the 15kg plates are yellow.
Can I drop Rogue Competition Plates from overhead like regular bumpers?
While they are highly durable and designed for Olympic lifting, competition plates are generally not meant to be repeatedly dropped from overhead like training bumpers. Doing so can eventually damage the precise steel center ring, so they are best used for meticulous, competition-standard lifting.
What is the exact diameter of the 25kg Rogue Competition Plate?
The largest plates in the set, like the 25kg red plate, have a standardized 450 millimeter outer diameter. This precise diameter is required by the IWF so the barbell sits at the exact right height off the floor during deadlifts and cleans.
