Our Take
The Tru Grit Cast Iron Kettlebell is a standard single-piece cast iron weight aimed at home gym users and fitness beginners looking for an affordable entry point. At 20kg it suits intermediate-level swings, deadlifts, and carries. It sits firmly in the budget-to-mid-range bracket rather than competing with competition-spec or powder-coated performance bells.
Key Features
Cast iron construction, single-piece moulded body with no weld seams at the handle-bell junction
20kg weight increment, appropriate for intermediate kettlebell movements
Flat base allows stable upright storage without rolling
Handle diameter is moderate, suited to most adult hand sizes for double-handed grip
Surface has a lightly textured finish rather than a smooth polish, offering some chalk grip
Weight is marked clearly on the body for quick identification in a multi-bell rack
Our Verdict
A sensible, no-nonsense option for home gym owners who want a functional 20kg kettlebell without paying a premium. If you train in a garage or shed, apply a light oil to prevent rust. Competitive athletes or anyone wanting a polished finish and consistent sizing across a set should look at powder-coated or competition-grade alternatives.
