Weight Stack Adapter Plates - Add More Resistance to Your Weight Machines for Improved Results

I ordered both the 2.5 lb and the 5 lb separately because I needed both. However found out later could have bought them cheaper together as a set. Either way they work perfect for my machine. We'll worth the cost. Free shipping was a big plus.

This product performs as advertised. It fits on weight machines to add a little more weight. It also fits weight stacks from machines manufactured by different companies.

I have the Bells of Steel functional trainer with weight plate stack. These do not go all the way on. The 2.5lb was fine because of the shorter profile. It will slide in further since the bottom of the pulley isn't wide. The 5lb adapter plate is taller and runs into the center of the pulley (pulley is too thick for the opening to go over it), so it hangs precariously over the edge and can fall off. I still give this a 5-star rating because it's a great value and exactly what I needed. They're just not quite as universal as the listing suggests.

Does what I need it to. I have a functional trainer at home and needed something to incrementally add weights since my pulley ration is 1:1. These are great to add extra weight on top of maxing out the weight stack. I purchased 4 of these in total; two 5 lb plates and two 2.5 lb plates. My only complaint is the price. I feel these are way too overpriced for what they are. There are other similar products available for a little bit more and offer something like magnetic properties to allow storing on power racks.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Weight training definitely has its quirks, and there’s an entire industry built around solving them. When you train with dumbbells, you can increase the weight in 5-pound increments. When you train with a barbell, you can use smaller or fractional plates to increase in just about any amount you want. But standard 1-to-1 cable weight stacks usually jump in 10-pound increments. On some machines, it’s 20. That can slow your progress, especially if you’re not quite ready for that next big jump in resistance. Unless you have something like this: the Body-Solid Weight Stack Adapter Plate. It’s very easy to use. You just slide it onto the guide rod and rest it on top of the weight stack. It’s made from solid, durable rubber, so you can quickly remove it with one hand and just drop it out of the way during drop sets without worrying about breaking anything. It takes up almost no storage space. This adapter adds 5 pounds to your stack (mine actually weighs 5.4 pounds), and it’s a great way to make smaller, more manageable progress with your lifts. I’m not sure if it fits all functional trainers, but I use it with a Fringe Sport Dane and it works perfectly. Definitely worthwhile if you use a cable machine and want more control over your weight increments.

Not cheap, but seem well made.

Arrived as expected

A simple way to move slightly 5 pounds up in weight. Works with most weight stacks.

Exelente disco, cabe perfecto en máquinas de peso integrado

My machine has 5kg increments so a 2.5lb and 5lb weight are just right for adding 3 intermediate increments (small weight, large weight, both weights). The actual increments are very slightly different to what you would get with a 1.25kg and 2.5kg weight, but close enough

Purchased two 5lb weight adapters, both fit my muscle IQ rack perfectly. Had an issue with delivery by DPD but fitness superstore we’re very helpful with great communication and sorted the problem pretty quick. Definitely recommend

Perfect to add small increments to your weight stack, good quality, solid build..
