About this product
These vintage York Barbell Pancake 10s are a pair of cast iron dumbbells with removable plates, likely from the strongman era. Each dumbbell has a 10 lb plate set, making them suitable for bodybuilding and weight lifting. Made in the United States, these antique weights are priced at $40.00. The model features pancake plates and a classic design, appealing to collectors or those seeking old-school gym equipment.
Our take
As a fan of vintage gym gear, I picked up these York Pancake 10s. They are classic cast iron with a charming patina that says 'old school.' At $40 for the pair, they are a steal for collectors. The plates are removable, so you could potentially swap them, but the threading is old and may not fit modern bars. They work fine as fixed dumbbells for curls or presses. Not for heavy lifting, but perfect for light work or display. Just be aware they're vintage and may have some rust.
