Quick Summary
The NORTHERN Olympic Cast Iron Weight Plates are a pair of 2” plates for strength training with Olympic-standard bars. They are offered in multiple weight sizes, with clear weight markings and a coated finish.
As a cast iron plate pair, the main buying checks are the selected weight, bar compatibility and whether you want a pair rather than a single plate.

What to Compare Before Buying
- Weight: Choose the plate weight that matches your training progression and the load you want to build.
- Bar compatibility: The 2” centre hole is for Olympic-standard bars, so check that your bar matches this size.
- Quantity: This is a pair, so make sure that suits the amount of weight you need on each side.
- Finish: The coated surface is part of the design, so compare that with your preference for handling and storage.
Who This Product May Suit
These plates suit buyers setting up a strength-training space with Olympic-standard bars and wanting a pair of cast iron plates in a chosen weight. They are relevant for home gyms, commercial gyms and regular lifting setups where weight markings and a 2” centre hole matter.
Choosing the Correct Version
Select the weight that matches your training plan, then check that the bar uses the Olympic-standard 2” fit. Because the plates are sold as a pair, the selected weight and quantity both matter when comparing offers.
Before You Decide
Confirm the chosen weight, the 2” Olympic-style fit and the pair quantity before you pick an offer. If you need a different load, compare the other listed weight sizes rather than assuming the same pair will suit every setup.
