Machined Olympic Plates

Oldies but goodies, classic, simple, durable and slim. I only have 2 pairs, I only use them for deadlifts but they are good to have as additional weight for heavy deadlifts.

These plates are clean and nice. They could be more accurate, but they work.

I had a pair of 25s and 35s of these during covid and bought them right at the start to get some weights up at a place I was working at away from home. They were fine. Good tolerances, design is cool. But they're not MiUSA and the price is comparable to Strength Co weights, which are MiUSA, so really you're paying for the Rogue name and a little bit of CS on some Chinese plates. For all of that, they're fine. I wouldn't think of buying them now with Strength Cos out there and with Rogue's USA Made plates coming in at a simliar price for a set, no contest. I did sell these for a little bit of a profit when I was able to get a full set of irons that better aligned with what I was looking for in my space, so there is an upside to someone writing Rogue all over something.

I picked these up as my set of plates for my gym. I liked the gray hammertone finish and they were fairly accurate in tolerances. I went with a urethane coated option about a year later. These are a decent value and will last forever.
