Bodytone Polyurethane Olympic Plate 50 mm — 5 kg

In brief — Bodytone Polyurethane Olympic Plate 50 mm: weight 5 kg, brand Bodytone, distributed by Light In Fitness, price 34.10 € excl. VAT.

The Bodytone polyurethane Olympic plate — 50 mm bore, 5 kg — is the intermediate loading increment for Olympic bars and plate-loaded machines in commercial gyms. Denser and thinner than rubber, polyurethane lets you stack more weight on a single sleeve, releases no odour and keeps its finish through years of daily loading. Sold individually at 34.10 EUR excluding VAT, with volume pricing on quotation.

Polyurethane: the premium coating for commercial floors

In a facility that runs classes and free-weight sessions all day, plates are dropped, rolled and re-racked hundreds of times a week. Polyurethane is the coating specified for that duty cycle. Compared with standard rubber it is significantly denser, so a 5 kg plate is noticeably slimmer at equal weight; it does not give off the rubber smell that lingers in enclosed strength zones; and its surface resists scuffing, so the plate still looks presentable after years on the rack.

• 50 mm bore, compatible with all Olympic bars and plate-loaded machines
• Reduced thickness — more plates fit on each sleeve
• Odour-free, colour-stable polyurethane shell
• Quiet handling that protects flooring and keeps noise down
• Sold individually; full sets configured on quotation

Where the 5 kg increment fits

Five kilograms is the workhorse step between the 2.5 kg micro-load and the 10 kg training plate. It loads warm-up bars, sets the starting resistance on plate-loaded machines and lets coaches build progressive jumps for mixed-level groups. A complete commercial plate park typically pairs this reference with its neighbouring 2.5 kg and 10 kg increments in matching quantities.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

What is this plate intended for?

It is the intermediate load for warm-up bars and plate-loaded machines in commercial strength areas. The 50 mm bore fits any Olympic sleeve, so the same plate serves barbells, loading pins and machine horns.

Polyurethane or rubber — which should a gym choose?

Polyurethane is the premium option: at equal weight the plate is thinner, it carries no odour and it wears far better under daily commercial use. Rubber remains the economical choice for budget-driven projects. Facilities that want their strength zone to look sharp after several seasons generally specify polyurethane.

Can we equip an entire facility on quotation?

Yes. Light In Fitness configures complete plate parks — increments, quantities and storage racks — with quantity discounts. Quotes are free of charge and returned within 24 hours.
