The plates that go with step 2
Switching to the long screws is not enough on its own. Once the capacity is raised to 65 kg per dumbbell, you need something to fill that range, and that is exactly what this set does.
Eight 2 kg plates, that is 16 kg to spread across your two dumbbells. You keep the 2 kg increment progression that makes the range worthwhile, all the way to the top.
Cast iron, and nothing else
These plates are made of cast iron. No plastic shell that cracks, no coating that chips the first time two plates touch.
It is a deliberate choice on an accessory you handle and stack several times per session. Cast iron marks, it does not break.
Locking with no play
The fast screw and the double pin retention lock the stack. That is what counts on explosive movements, where a plate moving in your hand turns a swing into a bad surprise.
Usage and safety tips
- Spread the plates symmetrically across both dumbbells, a 2 kg imbalance is felt immediately.
- Check the tightness and the pins before every set.
- The 65 kg per dumbbell maximum assumes the long screw setup, it is not reachable with the original screws.
- Store the plates on a rack rather than stacked on the floor.
