Magnetic Hex Weights (2.5 lb. Set) : Weight Plates : Sports & Outdoors Review: Strong magnet, attaches and detaches easily but does not move during use. - A little expensive but, these have been a great addition to my home gym and proven themselves to be worth the investment. They attach firmly to my dumbbells and do not move easily. The 2.5lbs helps to make the jump in weight easier than a full 5lb jump. As stated in the description, the will not attach to rubber coated weights. If you have uncoated dumbbells I highly recommend purchasing these magnetic weights. Review: Perfect for use with Powerblock Pro and straight bar - I hesitated to buy these at first because of the high price point, but I could not be happier with the product and the value. Absolutely worth the price. “Feels” like a very high quality product, too. I use them with a Powerblock Pro set and they work so perfectly it’s like they’re made for it specifically. Allows you to get those 12.5 lb / 22.5 / 32.5 / etc increments that the set can’t do. Simple to add / remove. So quick that it doesn’t disrupt the workout at all. Just the right amount of magnetism that they’re easy to remove, but you don’t worry about them falling off, either. And they work great with the Powerblock straight bar if you have that, too. Just add them right to the flat part of the handles where the weight chart is displayed. And again, this allows you to fill the holes of 45 lb / 65 / 85 that the bar can’t do on its own. Perfection! ## Features - Includes (2) Hex Shaped Magnetic Add-On Weights, 1.25 lbs each (2.5 lb total for pair) - Microloading with PlateMate is the safe, scientific way to build strength at beginning, intermediate and advanced exercise levels. - Attached to each end of a dumbbell, the 1.25 lb Hex allows for 2.5 lb increments eliminating the need to buy every other pair of dumbbells. Which also saves you space. - These patented design magnetic add-on weights attach quickly and easily to ends of any iron dumbbells, cast iron plates, and stack weight machine plates. Dumbbell NOT Included. - Will not magnetically stick properly to surfaces coated with rubber, urethane, neoprene, vinyl. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00078BOC8 | | Best Sellers Rank | #44,311 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #176 in Exercise & Fitness Dumbbells | | Brand | PlateMate | | Brand Name | PlateMate | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 322 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00766580101109 | | Handle Diameter | 1.25 inch | | Handle Material | Rubber | | Item Dimensions L x W | 4"L x 4"W | | Manufacturer | Power Systems | | Material | Metal | | Number of Pieces | 2 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Invisible, No-Roll Head | | Product Dimensions | 4"L x 4"W | | Special Feature | Invisible, No-Roll Head | | Style | 1.25 lbs | | Target Use Body Part | Arm, Shoulder | | UPC | 766580101109 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PlateMate - **Color:** Black - **Material:** Metal - **Product Dimensions:** 4"L x 4"W - **Special Feature:** Invisible, No-Roll Head ## Images ![- Microload Pair Magnetic Weights - Choose Between 1.25 lbs or 2.5 lbs Hex - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71PmIP-5qhL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: i have vinyl dumbells, would these stick to those?** A: Hi, No- they will not stick to vinyl dumbbells. Thank you, **Q: Will these two magnets stick to each other? I wanna use them for a flag weigh.** A: They will. **Q: Will this work with nuo flexbell adjustable dumbells ?** A: Magnets are what makes them stick. The magnets are quite strong. See if a magnet will stick to your dumbbells. If yes, then these will work. **Q: Will these fit on the outside of pro-style Dumbbells?** A: If you have pro-style dumbbells (with the bolt protruding at the end), you will want to purchase the PlateMate Donut units. There is not enough "flat" surface area on traditional "pro-style" dumbbells for the hex units to fit properly. As mentioned by the other answers, these units will only stick to metal and will not work properly on your dumbbells if they are rubber encased. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Strong magnet, attaches and detaches easily but does not move during use. *by F***V on February 2, 2026* A little expensive but, these have been a great addition to my home gym and proven themselves to be worth the investment.

Perfection! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super Strong Magnet *by C***K on December 9, 2025* Love these plate mates! We use them on our Nuobell adjustable dumbbells because the dumbbells go up in 5lb increments so with these we can go up in 2.5 lb increments.
