What type of plates can be put on the bar?

I use Olympic plates, cast and bumpers the sleeves are uniform and the plates fit nice, no sloop.

I use rubber bumper plates. The center hole is 2 inches in diameter. Pay close attention to that as many of the plates you'll see are 1 inch and fit smaller bars. The bumper plates also don't change in outside diameter. They're all the same diameter regardles of weight; the only thing that changes is their thickness.

The leg developer will be using the 2" Olympic sized plates. This bench does not come with a bar so that would depend on the user and which bar they purchase.Thank you.

The Hex bar can hold up to 450 lbs of Olympic plates or 540 lbs of the skinnier plates or bumper plates.

Yes, you can use an Olympic bar (72 inch or longer). However, the plate storage pegs on this stand are made for standard weights. The olympic weights will fit on the pegs, just not tightly like olympic weight size pegs.

They accommodate standard plates. I purchased a plastic olympic sleeve and placed over the standard peg for my weights.

The 300lbs is for the total gym itself so nothing fails during use to avoid injury. Bar doesn't have a ton of room on each side for plates. You can fit a decent amount though.

No this plate fits standard Olympic bars. Olympic bars have a diameter of 2 inches.

I'm not sure about that. But, the weight plates wi fit most barbells. You can just go to a sporting goods store and get more plates or a barbell

Well Richard, if your talking standard plates they go up to 25 lbs, and yes that bar can hold them, they can also hold Olympic Plates (all sizes) you just have to get adapter sleeves for the bar and you'll be able to fit them on each end.

The sleeve slides over the ends of a standard weight lifting bar so that you can use Olympic style weight plates. Once you slide it on you must secure it with the screw which is suppose to hold it in place. However, there is no specific location on the standard bar for it to join up with, so you must occasionally tighten the screws to prevent it from sliding off.

This bar has a metal piece that screws on and off to hold weights in place. Hope that helps.

You can use whatever bolts or security arrangement you use for your license plate as it mounts using those same bolts. There's plenty of security bolts for license plates here on Amazon.

We bought the Olympic bar and 300lbs of plates at Sears. So far from what I've seen, any Olympic weight set should work. The holes in the middle of the weights have fit so far from Sears and Sports Authority I think as long as they are Olympic ones.

Sure! Look for "Arca-swiss" compatible plates. There are lots of options out there.

Please look it up, you have folks saying standard plates work on an Olympic bar ....doesn't make sense, there would be no distinction if it didn't matter...

hi, you can use any plates. i used old ones and just opened the small center hole with a drill.

You can mount it directly on the plate, but I don't recommend that method. The free quick release plate will be good enough or you can use your own.
