Six weights shown. Choose individual pairs or a set to suit your training.
Why all black.
One finishSix weights, one black finish. For lifters who want a clean, unified look across the whole kit, or who load by label and feel rather than IWF convention. Every increment has a rubberized matte-black finish for added grip and quieter handling.
Small plates. Every dimension.
Compare plate size and the space each one takes on your sleeve before choosing your pair.

Individual weights are sold as pairs: two plates of the selected weight. Thickness is measured per plate.
PRs live in the last 2.5 kg.
Most lifts don’t stall because you stopped trying — they stall because your smallest plate forces a jump your body isn’t ready for. Change plates shrink the jump. Add 1 kg to the bar instead of 5, keep the reps clean, and keep progressing week after week.
Small jumps, honest reps.
Smaller increments give you more control over loading. With increments from 0.5 kg per plate, you choose exactly how much harder next session gets — on the bar, the bell, or the vest.
- Overhead press & bench — where 2.5 kg total is a real jump
- Curls, raises & isolation work — progress without breaking form
- Weighted calisthenics — fine-tune vest and belt loads
Quiet on the bar, kind to the floor.
Bare metal fractionals clank, chip, and skate across sleeves. These are fully rubberized: the rubber coating adds grip, reduces loading noise, and helps cushion contact with your gear.
- No metal-on-metal — loads without the clang
- Rubber coating — helps cushion contact with your gear
- Matte black finish — one color across every increment
The 50 mm hole is the point.
These aren’t barbell-only plates. The standard 50 mm Olympic bore means the same pair moves between your barbell, your AdaptaBELL, your EZ-VEST, and your kettlebell handle — one set of fractionals for every plate-loaded tool you own.
Same goal. Very different jump.
Pressing 40 kg? Your next available bar weight is 45 kg — a 12.5% jump in one session. On an overhead press, that’s often weeks of failed attempts before it moves.
The same lift moves 40 → 41 → 42 kg — a smaller 2.5% step. Five 1 kg steps take you from 40 to 45 kg, so you can build the load as your strength improves.
One set of plates. Every tool.
Barbells
Slides onto any 50 mm Olympic sleeve, snug against your main plates.
AdaptaBELL

EZ-VEST
Fine-tune weighted walks, push-ups, and pull-ups in smaller increments.
Kettlebell
Turn one adjustable bell into a full rack of in-between weights.
