SPORTNOW 4 x 5kg Metal Weight Plates (20kg), Grey A91-490V01GY are a compact 20 kg starter set of four 5 kg metal plates with a 1‑inch (2.5 cm) centre bore for standard dumbbells and bars. Baked metal finish resists rust and chipping; clear 5 kg markings and an Ø19 x 3 cm profile make them easy to handle and store. FastDaddyshop consultants recommend them as a practical, space‑saving choice for beginners or as add‑on plates to expand a 1‑inch setup.
The SPORTNOW 4 x 5kg metal weight plates (total 20 kg) are a compact, budget-friendly option for a home gym or garage setup. Made from solid metal with a baked finish, these 5 kg discs resist rust, scratches and chipping while keeping a clear 5 kg marking for quick identification. Each plate is designed for 1-inch (2.5 cm) standard dumbbell and barbell rods — our consultants often recommend these for older standard bars and adjustable dumbbells rather than 50 mm Olympic bars. With an overall diameter of approximately 19 cm and a thickness around 3 cm, the plates are compact enough for curls, presses and rows yet substantial enough to support progressive loading up to 20 kg in total.
From the practical experience of our consultants at FastDaddyshop, these plates work best as part of a standard 1-inch (2.5 cm) loading system — and are ideal for beginners or intermediate users building a customiseable barbell or adjustable dumbbell set. Based on observations from our store managers, if you plan to progress beyond a combined 20 kg load you should consider adding 2.5 kg or 10 kg plates of matching 1-inch bore, or upgrading to 50 mm (2-inch) Olympic-style plates for heavy lifting. A practical caution: although the baked finish improves durability, avoid repeatedly dropping metal plates on hard floors; use a rubber mat or protective flooring to prevent damage to both the plate finish and your surface.
In practice, these SPORTNOW metal barbell plates (also described as standard 1-inch weight plates or 2.5 cm disc plates) offer a straightforward, no-frills solution for home strength training. Based on the experience of FastDaddyshop store managers, pair them with secure collars and a 1-inch bar rated for the intended load, and you have a versatile 20 kg starter set that is easy to store and simple to maintain.
