Bodytone Olympic Polyurethane Plate 50 mm — 2.5 kg

In brief — Bodytone Olympic Polyurethane Plate 50 mm: weight 2.5 kg, brand Bodytone, distributed by Light In Fitness, price 17.00 € excl. VAT.

The Bodytone olympic polyurethane plate, 50 mm bore and 2.5 kg, is the adjustment increment of a professional weights floor — the plate members handle most often when fine-tuning a barbell or a plate-loaded machine. Sold per unit at 17 EUR excluding VAT, with full sets quoted on request.

Why polyurethane for a commercial floor

Polyurethane is denser than rubber, which changes three things in daily use:

• Thinner profile at equal weight — more plates fit on the same barbell sleeve
• No odour — unlike rubber, PU releases no smell, a real point in enclosed strength zones
• Durable finish — the surface resists scuffing and keeps its appearance through years of loading and re-racking

That combination is why polyurethane is the premium plate standard in commercial strength rooms, with rubber remaining the economical alternative.

The 2.5 kg increment in a complete inventory

The 2.5 kg plate is the workhorse of progression: it moves a barbell in 5 kg total steps and lets members load machines precisely between larger jumps. In a complete Bodytone plate inventory it sits alongside the neighbouring 1.25 kg and 5 kg increments, and a full run is typically ordered in multiples per barbell station.

Frequently asked questions

What is this plate used for?

It is the adjustment increment for olympic barbells and plate-loaded machines — the most frequently handled plate on a strength floor, used to progress loads in small steps.

Polyurethane or rubber: what is the difference?

Polyurethane is denser: at equal weight the plate is thinner, odour-free and more wear-resistant. It is the premium coating for professional facilities; rubber remains the budget option.
