Why use cast iron weights?

- Cast iron is more resistant to shocks, falls and crushing (5 times more) than vinyl. - Cast iron has a textured surface ensuring excellent grip and traction, even with wet hands, unlike plastic, which is often slippery. Choosing our cast iron weights means choosing efficiency and reliability in your training.

Don't forget the disc stops to practice safely

Consider investing in a pair of disc stops to secure the weights on your bar during exercises. Our Smart Disc Stops are sold in pairs (ref: 8574652) and allow you to practice safely. Just be careful: their weight limit in the vertical position is 15kg.

Our cast iron discs are produced from at least 80% recycled cast iron

Since 2018, our teams have progressively incorporated recycled materials until they achieved the best compromise. After several years of experimentation, Decathlon is replacing its entire range of cast iron products with 80% recycled cast iron made from at least 80% scrap metal and steel waste—a remarkable achievement in the metal industry! To guarantee quality equivalent to conventional cast iron, tests are carried out in partner laboratories.

Why choose a cast iron weight rather than plastic or vinyl?

- Cast iron, due to its density, offers superior compactness to vinyl, which allows for an increase in the number of discs on the bar (up to 32 kg on a dumbbell) - Cast iron can be kept for life, unlike plastic or vinyl ones which can last less than 1 year. - Less affected by temperature variations, cast iron offers constant use in different climatic conditions.

Our tips for storing your cast iron weight plates!

- To store your cast iron weights, you can equip yourself with a wall-mounted disc holder (ref: 8796727) or a storage rack (ref: 8788246) to install indoors (garage for example). - Avoid storing your weights outdoors or in a humid place, as cast iron risks rusting if exposed to humidity. - Dust your discs with a microfiber cloth when they have been stored for a long time.
