The Fringe Sport Color Bumper plates are stylish and built to last. You can drop these weights off a 40-foot roof and they’ll still work like new. We’re not kidding, Fringe Sport literally did this and we’ve posted the video proof.

Vivid colors are just great to look at.

At Garage Gym Products we’re big fans of bumper plates. Most of our readers are working out in a garage or home gym and that means they need to protect their floors. While we always recommend a strong and thick piece of rubber flooring (at least 1/2″), we also love the added protecting bumper plates provide.
The Fringe Sport color bumper plates our a favorite among our team. Not only do they add a splash of color to the gym, but they’re also among the most well-built bumpers on the planet thanks to a unique design that keeps them sturdy for the long haul.
Constructed with virgin rubber, Fringe Sport adds a stainless steel “hooked” insert into each number, ensuring the insert stays well connected with the bumper plates rubber even after thousands of hard drops.
The company’s durometer rating provides for a very low bounce. 10’s and 15’s are rated at 90 sHA; the 25, 35, 45, and 55-pound bumpers are 85 sHA. That means you won’t be chasing your barbell and weights down the street after a hard drop.
Fringe Sport color bumpers are so strong that they offer a 3 Year Warranty on 25’s, 35’s, 45’s and 55’s; 1 Year warranty on 10’s and 15’s. Fringe will even take back your order at no cost if you’re not completely satisfied.
Don’t take our word for how great these bumpers are, we’ve included a stress test video that includes a 40-foot fall with no damage reported!
