We face a unique challenge here at Fringe Sport because we have to live up to lofty billing that competitors don't - being Texas tough. We take pride in doing so, and we've brought that legendary, bootstrapping resilience to our Savage Bumper plates. Each Bumper Plate has a "hooked" steel insert which increases the durability and longevity of the bumper plate, even the 10's. Savage bumper plates are also made from 100% virgin rubber, which is a dense, low-odor, premium rubber.
The brightly colored tiger stripes are color-coded by weight and have a weight tolerance of +/- 1%, making them extremely weight accurate. The Bumper Plates also feature raised lettering which is more durable than painted or printed markings.
Our newly designed Savage bumper plates have a width of only 2.3", whereas most standard bumper plates have a width of 2.9". This gives the bumper plates a more premium look and allows you to fit more weight on the bar, a win-win.
The thick outer lip provides a wider area to grasp, making it easier to lift and carry the plate. This is especially important for heavier plates where a solid grip is necessary to lift the weight. When a bumper plate is lying flat on the ground, the thick lip offers a point of leverage to lift the edge of the plate. This makes it easier to get fingers or hands underneath and get it off the ground.

RAISED LETTERING
Raised lettering is more durable than painted or printed markings. Over time, painted markings on plates can wear off, making it challenging to identify the weight.
Raised lettering is less prone to this issue, ensuring that you can continue to use your plates effectively for years. It also gives the plates a more polished and professional appearance.
DURABLE HOOKED STEEL INSERTS
The hooked design distributes stress more evenly across the plate, which helps prevent cracking, chipping, or deformation.
Hooked steel inserts often produce less noise and vibration when dropped compared to plates with regular circular inserts. The secure connection between the hook and the rubber dampens the impact and reduces the rattling or clanging noise associated with weightlifting movements.
LOW ODOR
Our Savage Bumper Plates are made from 100% virgin rubber which is sourced from new rubber materials, which means it contains fewer impurities, contaminants, and foreign substances compared to recycled rubber.
These impurities can contribute to the strong rubber smell often associated with recycled rubber bumper plates, but are eliminated with 100% virgin rubber bumper plates.

10 lb Smart Design
Our amazing savage plates are indeed low odor, as they are made the same way the rest of our best on the market plates are made. If you find there is a smell to the plates when they arrive at your house, you can wash them with warm water and dish soap, leave them outside in the sun for 2- 3 days and then you can spray with Armor All or mineral oil (a very light coat) to remove the smell from the plates!
Here's Why People LOVE The Savage Bumper Plates
Designed To Olympic Standards
All Fringe Sport bumper plates are IWF Standard 450mm (17.7") with guaranteed weight accuracy, so you can lift with confidence knowing that your bumper plates will deliver the precise weight you expect, ensuring balanced and safe lifting sessions.
We've designed out 10lb and 15lb bumper plates to be thicker and stronger than other bumper plates on the market, so they will never bend, fold, or crack when you can drop them from the overhead position. This is important because 10’s and 15s are the most vulnerable to excessive bounce or breakage when dropped.

The Savage Difference
Our Savage Bumper Plates have tiger streaks of color throughout them, making them easy to identify. While the color streaks certainly catch your eye, it's easy to forget that they are also super helpful. The color comes in handy both in a crowded gym setting when you gotta get what you need fast and also at home when you're just trying to get a quick workout in and don't have time to double-check the plates you're loading.
The Savage Bumper Plates represent the ideology of never stopping, never giving up, and never backing down. WODs don't just take physical strength, they take MENTAL strength! It's our mission to remind every athlete that it's not about who can lift the most, it's about how far you push yourself outside of your comfort zone.
Our Savage Bumper Plates are covered in almost bombproof rubber that preserves the iron so they will not rust when exposed to wet surroundings.
Why Choose Bumper Plates by Fringe Sport?
If you lift often, you're likely already familiar with bumper plates. If you're not lifting often, bumper plates are great for beginners and experts alike because they protect your barbell if and when the barbell is dropped from any lift. But do you know why bumpers are so much more popular than iron weights? When you compare the two, bumper plates are prized for their quiet nature and lower bounce due to their material. Since they're made of 100% virgin rubber, they're ideal for both home gyms and box gyms as they naturally absorb sound.
With rubber absorbing the sound, you can forget about obnoxious noise waking up your sleeping kids or neighbors, but that's not all our bumper plate rubber does. Our rubber is specifically crafted to create a low bounce when dropped, so you spend less time getting back to the bar and more time making gainz.
