Powerlifting contests are always done using the metric size plates, yet most commercial gyms use "pound" plates that are usually low quality, meaning inaccurate weights.. Average gym weights are plus/minus 3%. So that 600 squat you want could be anything from 582 to 618. Nearly 40lbs range! Unacceptable.
When you are training for a contest, you want to know that your training weights are EXACTLY what you want them to be, not plus or minus.... anything!
StrongArm plates are not on the IPF approved list (not yet at least), but only because we did not want to pay the enormous fees the IPF wants for this. They ARE made to IPF specifications for calibrated weight, dimensions and colors. Most US Federations do not require them to be on the IPF list for competitions, but if yours does, they are perfectly acceptable in the warmup room, and home or commercial gyms. You can be assured they are every bit as precise and accurate as the plates you will see on the contest platform. You are just paying considerably less for them!
Our plates are in use at AAU and USPA National meets, and other feds.

Are they ACCURATE?
YES! We took a random set to a certified testing center to have them checked, all plates were within the allowable tolerance.
Here is a summary chart, the actual document are linked below it.
