Concrete Weight Plate EB FIT 5 kg, 28 mm hole, black

EB FIT concrete weight plate 5 kg with a 28 mm centre hole is a compact, purpose-built weight plate for free-weight strength training. Cast from concrete and finished in black, the plate is intended for use with bars and handles that accept a 28 mm diameter opening. Its 5 kg mass provides a precise incremental load for progressive resistance training in home gyms, garages or studio spaces where heavy-duty metal plates are not required.

Advantages

The plate combines low cost and practical function in a small footprint. Its concrete construction offers a dense, stable weight with a protective black finish that reduces moisture absorption and surface wear. The 28 mm central hole is compatible with many Olympic-style and standard home barbell and dumbbell handles, enabling straightforward loading and combination with other plates. The compact size simplifies storage and transport compared with larger metal plates.

Suitable for

• Progressive strength training with barbells and dumbbells
• Home gym and garage workouts where space is limited
• Adding small, accurate increments to compound lifts (squats, deadlifts, presses, rows)
• Rehabilitation or beginner routines requiring moderate resistance steps

Key specifications

• Weight: 5 kg
• Central hole diameter: 28 mm
• Material: concrete
• Finish: black coating
• Compatibility: bars and handles accepting 28 mm hole

How to use

Place the plate onto a compatible bar or dumbbell handle by sliding the 28 mm opening over the sleeve or shaft until it seats securely. Ensure the plate is centred and stable before performing movements. Use collars or clamps to secure the plate if available; without collars, avoid exercises where plates could slide on the shaft. Combine multiple plates to reach the desired total load and balance loads evenly on both sides of the bar.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the plate for cracks or surface damage before each session. Use with correctly sized bars and secure with collars where possible. Store plates on a rack or flat surface to avoid chipping. Avoid exposure to prolonged moisture and extreme temperatures to preserve the coating and concrete integrity.
