Product details

The cornerstone to any weightlifting program, Hitechplates arrived in the marketplace and made an impact to the weightlifting community. For a decade, they have proven rugged and reliable.

Hitechplates are patented light-weight plates made from a composite material of recycled plastic. The material makes them very light while being identical in shape to Olympic-sized plated. This allows the teaching of technique without the added weight. The material also makes them extremely durable, surviving thousands of drops if used correctly. There is no need to clean or paint Hitechplates - they arrive with a chalky and one piece construction.

The recycled plastic used in Hitechplates are made in America, which reduces the Earth's landfills, transforming waste into STRENGTH, while reducing costs.

Hitechplates are not only for weightlifters, they enhance the movement of ALL athletes.

NOTE*** Hitechplates are designed to be used for technique training only, and should NOT be used along with fractional/change plates, steel plates or larger bumper plates. This can accelerate wear and cause structural damage to the plate. 5KG, 10LB, and 15LB 450MM diameter discs are considered technique discs and should be limited to use with 5KG and 10KG training bars for technique training only. Dropping these plates with heavy bars (15KG, 20KG, T-Grip Bars, ETC.) will damage these and will not be covered under warranty.

Respect your safety and equipment. Weights should never be dropped and will prevent damage to flooring and/or the plates.
