About this product
This vintage Weider set includes two 5 lb cast iron weight plates, totaling 10 lbs. The plates feature a 1-inch hole and are finished in black. They are standard type plates suitable for barbells or dumbbells. Made in the USA, these plates from the 1970s have a retro appeal. Priced at $23.50 for the pair, they are ideal for collectors or those needing lightweight additions.
Our take
I grabbed these vintage Weider 5 lb plates for a classic iron feel. The cast iron is solid and the black paint has that retro patina. They fit standard 1-inch bars perfectly. At $23.50 for two, it's a fair price for a piece of weightlifting history. However, these are only 5 lbs each, so they're not for heavy lifting—great for accessory work or nostalgia. If you want a matching set, finding more from the same era might be tricky.
