Rubber Covered Metal Weight Plates - Series 9030/3-9035/3 Rubber Plate

RUBBER COATED WEIGHT PLATES – SYMMETRICAL GRIP The new Sidea Rubber Plates introduce a premium high-density rubber coating characterized by a silky finish obtained through microsandblasting. This sets a new benchmark for the price-to-quality ratio in this disc category. The surface yield is clean and homogeneous, reaching a quality close to Polyurethane (PU) finishes while maintaining a more accessible price point. Handling is extremely comfortable, an advantage particularly evident in heavier weights (15, 20, 25 kg), especially during loading onto barbells and plate-loaded machines. The symmetrical grips and rounded edges further improve ergonomics, making the plate usable individually for one- or two-handed exercises, such as: Halos (rotations around the head) Weighted Crunches Woodchoppers (diagonal twists) Goblet Squats Lunges (with plate at chest or overhead) Calf Raises Overhead Walking Lunges Squat to Press Beyond high quality and density, the rubber coating stands out for its thick shoulder, designed to offer a wide and protected contact point. This shape ensures a soft and highly absorbent resting surface, keeping the internal cast iron structure well-protected from impacts and abrasions. The 9030/3–9036/3 Rubber Plates are not suitable for dropping and must not be dropped uncontrollably from height. However, they can be used for deadlifts, provided these are performed in a highly controlled manner on adequately rubberized surfaces or, preferably, on Sidea Drop Mats 0404. The construction combining high-density rubber and a cast iron core results in a noticeably thinner disc. This saves significant space on barbell sleeves and machine pins, allowing for increased load capacity. The central hole features a rounded stainless steel ring, designed to guarantee fluid and immediate insertion on both Ø 50 mm barbells and machine loading pins. Its rounded shape also allows it to be used as an additional grip point, avoiding the typically sharp edges of machine-worked rings. See also PU Plates with Grips code 9030-9036.
