That's interesting that you mention that and I was curious... so I went ahead and measured: the plates are less than 16", closer to 15.5". You're probably right about the quality... I'm not the best one to judge on that. They seem solid enough, but are probably not the best for stacking on a power rack for squats. I'm nowhere near that point to require that kind of quality.

Great deal OP. Lowest price per pound I've seen in COVID times, especially for rubber coated (I know they're not bumpers).

edit: op you might want to add free shipping in the title or in the shipping price if there is one.

Thanks for the great suggestion. My first post of a deal on SD (noob mistake lol). I've now edited the post to indicate that shipping is free.

One thing I'm seeing is the diameter of these plates appear to be 16.5 inches not the standard 18 inches or so, so these make better add on weights if you have standard diameter plates.

Also probably not the best quality plate so better not to drop them

Otherwise weights are weights, these should be ok, go Ham

EDIT...
these are almost certainly rubber coated iron, instead of finished/painted iron.

looks like plastic coated cement/sand...

but description says primary material is metal, and the dimensions are about right for iron.

are these iron shavings in a plastic case?
unfortunately, i couldn't tell you for sure as far as the composition, but they're rubber coated. sorry i couldn't be of much help here

These will be fine for bench presses/squats, but agree with Falcon: don't drop them.

There seem to be like 50 different company names on these types of plates, but I have some 35s from a different company and it feels the same as my Cap rubber-coated plates. Solid clunks, rubber coating. Doesn't feel like a shell or anything weird going on...of course it's a different name brand, but looks exactly like these.

Yeah, rubber-coated plates are good for keeping the noise down, better grip, and offering at least a little protection to the floor or equipment, but they definitely aren't bumper plates. I use them for deadlifts too, but just use padding where the plates hit, and I don't drop the weight from 3 feet high.

Ya, agree with your after some more clicking around.
They're solid iron, with a rubber coating, rather than finished/painted to prevent rust.
