ELEIKO SPORT TRAINING RANGE
THE SIMILARITIES Eleiko Sport Training range
vs Eleiko Olympic range:
- The bars are made of the same Swedish
steel quality as the Olympic bars.
- The flexibility of the bar is perfectly balanced
and the durability is unsurpassed.
- The strength rating of the bars is 215 000 PSI.
- All bars are individually tested in accordance with the
Eleiko quality policy and provided with a serial number.
- The discs come fully colored as per the Olympic color
scale.
THE DIFFERENCES Eleiko Sport Training range
vs Eleiko Olympic range:
- The Eleiko Sport Training range is not IWF certified or calibrated and hence it does not comply with IWF
standards for use at international competitions.
- The Eleiko Sport Training Bars have eight precision bearings which guarantee superior sleeve rotation
and durability. The Eleiko Olympic WL bars have ten precision bearings in order to optimise
performance for professional weightlifting with extreme requirements.
- The Eleiko Olympic WL Discs are tested for 5000 drops, the Eleiko Sport Training Discs for 3000.
- Disc hole tolerance: Eleiko Olympic WL Discs: 50,5±0,05 mm vs.disc hole tolerance: Eleiko Sport
Training Discs: 50,4-51,0 mm to enable easier loading.
- The Eleiko Olympic WL Discs have printed features in a contrast color. The Eleiko Sport Training discs
have no such additional color and have a more subtle appearance.
- The Eleiko Sport Training Platform is 2 x 2 meters instead of 3 x 2,5 meters (Eleiko Olympic WL
Training Platform). This allows for more efficient use of space.
