## Description

Full description not available

## Features

- Includes (2) Donut Shaped Magnetic Add-On Weights, 1.25 lbs each (2.5 lbs total for pair)
- Microloading with PlateMate is the safe, scientific way to build strength at beginning, intermediate and advanced exercise levels.
- Attached to each end of a dumbbell, the 1.25lb donut allows for 2.5lb increments eliminating the need to buy every other pair of dumbbells. Which also saves you space.
- These patented design magnetic add-on weights attach quickly and easily to ends of any iron dumbbells, cast iron plates, and stack weight machine plates. Dumbbell NOT Included.
- These units will not fit around an Olympic Barbell . The hole is only intended to fit around the bolt of a Pro-Style Dumbbell. Will not magnetically stick properly to surfaces coated with rubber, urethane, neoprene, vinyl.
- Ideal for saving money & space. Our 1.25lb Donut allows for the same benefit of owning a full rack of steel dumbbells for half the price.
- Do NOT use donuts on 20lbs dumbbells or smaller. Intended for use with 25 lb dumbbells and higher. It is important to make sure your dumbbells are large enough to fit the 4"x4" magnetic surface area.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will these fit on olympic size barbells?**
A: They will not slide over the end of an olympic barbell, as the inner hole is not quite large enough.  There is, however, another product called "fractional weight plates" that works with Olympic barbells.  They're not magnetic, but the magnetic feature is obviously not needed on an olympic barbell.http://www.amazon.com/CFF-Olympic-Fractional-Weight-Plates/dp/B005P7BPCA

**Q: For Nuobells, can you add these to the 5lb core to get effective 7.5 lbs?  My concern is the nuobell core is plastic, so not sure these would stick?**
A: According to Rogue Fitness, the Nuobells "...uses real, machined steel weight plates..." so, yes, the platemates would work. I use them with IronMaster and they connect to the end plate screws on them quite well (in fact, it's sometimes difficult to pull them off!)

**Q: What is the diameter of the donut 1.25lbs weights?**
A: Dimensions: 4-1/2" (11.43cm) outside diameter, 1-7/8" (4.875cm) inside diameter, 1/2" (1.27cm) thickness

**Q: Will these work with square IronMaster dumbells?**
A: YES! I bought them particularly because I was an IronMaster distributor and wanted something for the "in-between" weights (I couldn't convince them to produce a 1.25lb plate). I use them with my Quick-Locks as well as on the long bars. They are a bit pricey, but I'm considering a 2nd pair. Worth every nickel!

    They work well with metal weights
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2024*

These work perfectly with my Snode AD 80's. They stick well and don't seem to want to fall off. I think these would work well with any metal weights.

    The fit and function is like an Apple Product. Very expensive but it works and it works very well. 2 Pairs / 4 platemates of of 1.25lbs plates (2.5lbs per pair) will run you $100. $100 for 5 pounds total of weights is expensive.Is it worth it? For me yes. Adding micro increments of weight extremely fast and without hassle is very convenient and foolproof. Magnets at times seem too strong but it’s better than not strong enough.Fits well with Ironmasters adjustable dumbells and Kabuki Kyubells. Will stick on anything steel or iron. If there’s a thin coating of urethane, it will probably work as well but I havnt tried.If you think you can DIY your own magnets on micro plates…. Think about how long those adhesive magnets will work time over time again after. Eventually that adhesive will peel off.Just buy once cry once and you’ll have these micro progressive overload plates forever

    Strong Magnet
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2023*

They would sell a ton of these if it sold for about $10 less.  Good quality, good magnetic adhesion, pricing is too high though and never on sale, even on Black Friday.
