- Overview

Made for more than a decade at the Hi-Temp plant in Tuscumbia, Alabama, these ultra heavy-duty Rogue bumper plates remain the only American-made bumpers on the market. By no coincidence, they also rank among the very best—vouched for by gym owners, competitive weightlifters, and strength training specialists, alike.
Finding a happy medium between the dangerous clang of old-school iron plates and the springy bounce of some imported bumpers, Hi-Temps are built from a nearly indestructible marriage of recycled, vulcanized rubber and a 2" stainless steel insert. Better still, the collar on Hi-Temp bumpers is inset from the plane of the plate, allowing for better protection when multiple plates are on the bar, and reducing the risk of inserts getting impacted or popping out.
These are not your father's dispensable bumper plates. Tough enough to handle the punishment of intense daily use (be it in a high school weight room, an Olympic training center, or your own home gym), your Rogue Hi-Temp bumpers are guaranteed to last for the long haul. Measuring 17.5" in diameter, they're available in weights of 10, 25, 35, and 45 pounds, with five different bumper set packages to choose from.
With Rogue and Hi-Temp, you're buying American, and you're buying the best. Be sure to check out the Reviews sections to see what recent customers had to say about their experience with Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp. And feel free to contact us if you have any questions about your bumper set ordering options.

great plates
Review by JeffMQualityThese things hold up well to lots of outdoor abuse. Even the 10/15# plates are solid if you treat them right. These are a great buy for the money.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGood bumpers except for the 10s
Review by Dallas L.QualityI really like these bumpers, practically indestructible so far, even the 10s. I had two small gripes: the sleeves had a lot of grease on them from the factory that needed to be wiped off, and the weight on the 10s is not very consistent. I got two pairs, and here are their weights: 9.2 lbs,, 10 lbs., 10.2 lbs. and 10.4 lbs. I expected a bit of variance, but not that much. But, overall, for a garage gym, I'm still happy.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempPretty good.
Review by TheDKQualityThese all seem nice and sturdy - except for the 10s which I worry about. All plates were about half a pound light, but most were within 4oz of each other in weight.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGood Bumpers except for the 10s
Review by JPMQualityvery durable bumpers, except for the 10s. I have not put the 10s through a torture test but I doubt that they will survive the drop test. Also one bumper does not slide on to the bar without effort.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempThe better choice
Review by PCCQualityWhen looking for bumpers for a box, spend the little extra for the high quality. My clients and I have throw and dropped the weights without issue. Much better than the HG Rogue Bumpers.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAffordable and Solid
Review by BeiqueQualityThese are perfect bumpers for any garage gym setup. I've tested both the HG bumper plates and these, and ultimately went with a full set of these from a pair of 10s, 15s, 25s, 35s, and 45s. They aren't as shiny as the HG ones, and are actually a bit rough, but they can certainly take a beating without any worry of messing them up. A great American made product!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempCannot beat the value
Review by Eastside GymQualityAmazing, bomb proof, irreplaceable, beautiful, I could go on and on......| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempMust have for Garage Gym
Review by VinhsanityQualityThese bumpers are a must have for you garage gym. They'll take a beating. Upon opening the box, the bumpers were a little odious, but that's expected from rubber bumpers. The odor went away after a few days.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
One reviewer said he got really high bounce from his bumpers, and I've dropped mine from shoulder height, the first bounce was maybe 6-8 inches, but it deadens really fast. I have NO complaints!!Great Product, Better Service
Review by RonQualityProduct only arrived a week ago but looking at the product it is going to last! My experience with customer service was excellent. I experienced a problem with shipping and a warranty issue. Rogue customer service is the best I have ever worked with hands down. If you have a problem they will fix it fast, and correct the first time. Their promptness with contacting me and fixing my problem is the reason I have chosen to write my first review on anything I have ever bought. Whatever fitness item you need, buy Rogue because if their products are like their customer service its going to be impressive! A loyal customer for life.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempFoundation of a Garage Gym
Review by TylerQualityI've been using these things for over 2 years now and they are awesome. Super tough. No way I'm going back to a regular gym with these and my horse-stall mats. It lets me go all out. Clear the area for the bounce though. I've broken a few plastic containers on accident when the bar bounced into them. Extremely happy with this product and it's durability.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAwesome product!
Review by Lewis O.QualityI received my bumpers about a month ago and I have to say that I just love them. These plates are very durable. I will definitely will be ordering more for my gym.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAmerican beauty
Review by IvanQualityThe main reason I got these weights is because they are made in the United States. I did not want to get the HG because they were made in China. I love how Rogue is employing Americans as much as possible and these bumpers are the exact quality that you would expect from an American made product. These will outlast you (just like any other Rogue product) and you will not be disappointed.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempQuality
Review by JeffQualityI'm very happy with the bumper plates that I got from rogue, they work great. The customer service was also excellent!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempQuality
Review by StephanieQualityI had been using these bumpers at my old crossfit gym and saw how much of a beating they could take, so when it was time to buy some for my garage gym I was not hesitant to buy some for myself. I am very pleased with them and extremely impressed by the customer service from rogue.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat product and good customer service
Review by nunezstephQualityI just received my bumpers about one week ago. The crossfit gym I was going to used the same ones and they took quite a beating at the gym. So when it came time to purchase some for my home gym I was not hesitant at all. The quality is excellent and the customer service was amazing. I am very pleased with this company.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempLifelong investment
Review by ChristianQualityI bought these plates after purchasing the gorilla plates. I also own the HG plates and these bumpers are slightly smaller in diameter than the HG plates. So I purchased them so I could use them in combination with the gorrilas and all the plates would be in contact with the ground. They do have more bounce than the HG plates but that is an advance for certain workouts when you want to touch and go. These plates are extremely durable and great for taking the workout outside.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAir Them out First
Review by DealQualityThese are great plates for my Garage Gym. Feels good to be able to drop weights when you get tired without the loud crash of iron. My only suggestion is to let them sit outside for 2 or 3 days to off gas....they make quite an odor when stored inside right out of the box.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat bumpers and extremely durable
Review by Ben PQualityI've had these for around 3 years and they have proven to be excellent. I use them in a home gym, and have even left some of them outside for a year and they still look like they are new. I like the fact that they are made in the USA, are recycled, and have the stainless steel insert. I definitely recommend these as a first set of weights rather than buying iron plates - the extra money is well spent.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat Bumper
Review by Kyle SQualityThese bumpers are perfect for CrossFit and best of all made in the USA!!! Occasionally you will get a 10# plate that cracks, but I have only seen this when its dropped from overhead with a 45# bar.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempLove them
Review by AJQualityI bought these puppies and am now more comfortable lifting heavy without worrying about damage that could be done to my floor, noise, and even injury. Quality is great, customer service was one of the best I've seen! PR's...PR's all around!!!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempVery happy with the plates and the follow up
Review by CurtisQualityI was initially disappointed upon receiving my new bumper plates as they had a cut in them. Rogue Fitness stood behind their products and replaced the defective bumper plate. The new plates are great and without any defects.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempOne of a kind!
Review by Steve BakerQualityThe Hi-Temp bumpers by Rogue are truly one of a kind! These are the crowned jewel of any garage gym. The fact that they are American made sold me to buy them. I can always count on Rogue to make outstanding equipment!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAmazing Product
Review by blessedbybarbellsQualityThese happen to be by far the best bumpers i ever owned if your looking for something to put up with a lot of beating. I use them these at my home gym and use them on my concrete drive. They withstand being dropped from overhead with any destruction. Great job on this one Rogue!!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat Addition to a busy room
Review by Coach EQualityI purchased these bumpers at the end of February this year. Waited to post a review to see how they held up to abuse. I purchased them for my high school weight room, so you know they have had about 5 years worth of abuse in that short amount of time.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
I went with the 10 pound bumpers and the 35 pound bumpers. This configuration gave me the best diversity in the room. They are bullet proof. The kids abuse them daily and so far no problems. Yes they are a little thicker, but we can still get over 315 pounds of bumpers on the rogue bar. Not many people are going to need more than that for over head work in my room. Thank you Rogue for another great product.Use them for what they're for...
Review by RippetoeIsGoodForYouQualityOK, I bought these as a home workout solution set. However, I'm not doing Snatches or Cleans/Jerk yet and so don't drop my weights. Therefore, don't buy these if you primary lifting is squat/Press/DLs - these are not the best weights to buy for that given that they're very thick and you may run out of room on the bar.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
As a product they're pretty rough in regards to fit and finish. The 10lbs plates were warped (concave) and the 35lbs/45lbs had very uneven edges. If you plan on being super rough with your weights then these are good as you can replace easily enough down the line.
I won't be buying more and when I start doing lifts that demand bumbers, I'll save up and go up a step in quality and sell the ones I have.All Around Good Plates
Review by Sean GQualityI bought 350lbs of weight in these so friends and I could do workouts in the garage. A couple of the plates arrived looking like the rubber hadn't been melted all the way on 1/4 - 1//2 the plate, but they haven't flaked or had any problems. Over all these plates have taken a beating and don't look like I use them. I'd buy another set in a second if I could convince the wife.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat quality and price
Review by RerbQualityWhat made me choose these weights over the pendlay bumpers was simply the price, you could get a full set with bar, 2x 10,25,35,45 for cheaper than you could a set of pendlay (minus the 10's set). Also after reading some reviews these seem to be able to stand up to the most abuse. I started using these in my basement on smooth concrete with some matts under, no issues and the bounce is not uncontrollable with the 10s. Then in the garage on some rougher, dirty concrete with no mats and again no issues with bounce. they are holding up really well even after a few months of use, look brand new minus some dirt, and even slide on like they are new as the metal inserts were greased from the factory. Shipping took about a month but was free to northern alberta so cant complain about that. Overall for under 1000$ for a full set plus a few accessories, you just cant beat it. Better than driving to the gym and almost hurting myself with iron weights doing oly lifts, anyday.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempAffordable
Review by RandyQualityCompared to other bumpers on the market these are the best for the price. My only problem has been the insert on one of my 25's came loose after only a few weeks of receiving them. I e-mailed Rogue and was told the warranty does not cover loose inserts. It is not really a complaint, but I would be especially careful with dropping these bumpers.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempExactly what the doctor ordered
Review by Michael PQualityAfter much careful review, reading and video review watching, I chose the Rogue Hi-Temp bumper set with the Rogue Bar. I've been operating with a "box store" iron plate set & bar my whole life and always afraid I'd eventually drop onto myself from overhead or drop onto floor and shatter something. Love the Rogue Hi-temp and the bar, what a great set. Sure, it cost more than the iron set I basically grew up on, but it is an unfair apples and oranges comparison. I got a ton of use of the iron and I'm letting them go either.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
As far as the bounce AND observations on the 10's. Here are my observations after 2 months of workouts 3-4 times per week. The bounce is MUCH less if dropped on stall mats (Big 'R', Spokane, WA just to be specific). Makes sense that the bounce would be higher on concrete, I've seen all the videos. For me, no issues at all and seems completely manageable on the mats. I simply cannot imagine this bouncing into my shins or into my Jeep in the garage. Outside on concrete or uneven surface might likely be a different story, this summer we'll find out for sure - can't wait!
As far as the 10's. I've dropped them plenty. they bend (and bend right back) if: I drop them 'sideways' rather than straight down OR if my spring clamps are 'backwards' and pushing the plate sideways from the start. No issues for me in my garage gym I aim to stay somewhat in control of my drops. I suspect at my current rate they will last longer than I or my kids will eventually use them. The 25's and 45's seem bullet proof, I think I could use one as a spare for my Jeep if push came to shove and I know they will outlive me, says the 43 year old male. Getting younger and better every day. Thank you! ;-)Built like a tank
Review by scottQualityI have had Hi-temps for years now for my olympic lifting training and they are solid and well built. You can fit up to 455 on the bar with these if you use 3 of the 45's and 2 - 35lb iron plates plus spring collars per side. I expect to have these for many years.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempFantastic
Review by acewilliamsQualityGreat quality and great product. Rogue continues to have top of the line stuff. Thanks!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGood quality, but they bounce
Review by joe LQualityI really like them for the durability. I use the 15s for practice a lot and they hold up well for me, getting dropped a lot. But they bounce way higher than my other bumpers. Ends up making me chase them more. Still like them, but be aware that they are more bouncy than some other bumpers, like my yorks and even other rogue bumpers.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempVery Solid
Review by anonymousQualityI have used these 3-4 times for the last year. I have a pair of plates of each of the four weights.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
They are in the same shape as the day I received them, except chalkier. I would buy them again personally, and I would definitely consider these if I was shopping for a business or institution.
The only two issues I have with them are that they are very wide (the set I have takes up nearly the whole bar with a spring clip), and they are just a bit larger (1/8"-1/4") larger in diameter than steel plates, which is a consideration if you want to use them for lifts from the floor.Get them.

Review by Mark M.QualityThe girls have been dropping the 10's for over a year with light snatches, no problems with inserts, or 25's and 45's .| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat Value-just understand limitations
Review by ChrisQualityI'm very happy with these bumpers. Got them for my GG setup and have been very pleased with the value and durability they provide-especially with the Rogue Bar. While trying to practice overhead movements with the 10lbs, they naturally got dropped a few times. The steel insert has come loose somewhat and now sits crooked in the plate. I caught it early on and it still works but is a pain to get on and off the bar. Bottom line: Don't Drop these 10s!!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempPerfect garage gym weights
Review by DeadliftermutQualityMy Rogue Hi-temp plates have been the toughest bumper plates I've ever used. if you want durable bumper plates, and workout with 410 pounds or less, get the Rogue Hi-temp plates. You will not be disappointed.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat, except the 15's
Review by David OQualityThis low review is only related to the 15s. When they first arrived I thought they looked a lot sturdier than my kraiburg 15's however after about 4 months almost all of my hi temp 15s have cracked, many to the point of being unusable now. Really love the durability of the 25's and up but the 15's ended up being poor investment.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGood, but wide
Review by NAMWIZQualityHad a set for about 3 months now. These are good quality, but the 45lb plates are a little wide and hard to grip and load onto a bar.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempBest bumper for Crossfit
Review by Jason KhalipaQualityBy far the best bumper for Crossfit I have found, especially for the price.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempSolid
Review by SpealQualityI bought hitemps right off the bat when first starting in my garage and then moving on to the affiliate. They have lasted longer than so many other brands out there. The steel insert is super solid compared to a lot of the brass that is out there. No doubt one of the most bombproof things I have in my gym. Awesome bang for your buck as well.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempGreat bumper for the price!
Review by ChuckQualityIn my garage I have a set of Hi-Temps, and a set of Kraiburgs. Both of my Kraiburg 10's are splitting and warped. The Hi-Temp 10's have a lot more miles on them, but are in far better condition. The Hi-Temp 15's allow you to drop the weight without damaging the bumpers, or taking dangerous sideways bounces. They are a pretty wide bumper though, and you quickly run out of bar room. I usually use 2x 45's per side as a base, then stack on smaller diameter weight from there.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempDurable and affordable
Review by Tommy H.QualityOur hi-temps have held up very well. We currently have 2 kinds of bumpers, we have hi-temps and I believe the others are from wright rubber. So far I have seen a couple 10's and a 15 lb break that were wright rubber brand. None of our hi-temps have broken. I think they are definitely the most durable which is what you want at your affiliate. I don't like people using only 10's if they are dropping the weight because they will bend and fold over. However, it does happen, and our hi-temps have held up surprisingly well given all the wear and tear.| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-TempLog in to leave a reviewGood bumper for your buck
Review by Chris H.QualityThese are probably the best entry level bumpers on the market. They are larger in width than other higher priced bumpers, such as the Rogue competition and training bumpers, but they cost a fair bit less and get the job done. Their width will limit the amount of weight you can get on the bar - something to think about if you plan on dead-lifting, say, over 315 pounds (You'll only be able to get about three 45 lbs plates, plus a collar, on each end). Otherwise, these bumpers will work well for all your Olympic and power-lifting moves. These are the standard at my gym and a lot of other Crossfit affiliates. Highly recommended!| Review for: Rogue Bumper Plates by Hi-Temp
