2 kg cast iron weight plate, compatible with 28mm diameter bars and dumbbells. Sold individually to customize your load according to your goals!
Why should you use cast iron weights?
- Cast iron is more resistant to impacts, drops, and pressure (5 times better) than vinyl.
- Cast iron has a textured surface for excellent grip, even when your hands are wet, unlike plastic, which can be slippery.
Choosing our cast iron weights means you can train with confidence and efficiency.
Our cast iron plates are made from at least 80% recycled cast iron
Since 2018, our teams have gradually integrated recycled materials until we reached the perfect balance. After several years of experimentation, Decathlon is replacing its entire range of cast iron products with recycled cast iron made from at least 80% scrap metal and steel waste - a true achievement for the world of metals! To ensure the quality is the same as classic cast iron, tests are conducted in partner laboratories.

Our coach's advice for using weight training plates
Load a dumbbell with two 2 kg cast iron weights and start a set. Shoulder exercises:
- Military press with dumbbells 3×10 repetitions
Keep a margin of 2 repetitions at the end of each set. Add repetitions as the weeks go by, then add weight and start again with only 10 repetitions. The advantage of these weights is that they allow you to adjust the load based on your needs and the muscle groups you are working.
Add disc collars for your safety
To train safely, weight training plates must stay in place while you exercise. This is where the disc collar comes in! This small accessory secures the weights to your bar or trap. Our Smart Disc collars are sold in pairs (ref: 8574652). Note that their weight limit in a vertical position is 15 kg.
Why choose cast iron instead of plastic or vinyl weights for bumpers?
- Cast iron is a dense material that is more compact than vinyl, which means you can add more discs to the bar (up to 32 kg on a dumbbell bar).
- Cast iron lasts a lifetime, unlike plastic or vinyl, which can wear out within a year.
- Cast iron is less affected by temperature changes, so you can use it in a variety of conditions.
