Just title suggested. I own a DR ss plate. I have been looking for neat way to add some weight to the backplate. Does DSS fit?

If you want to use DSS weight plates you need a DSS backplate.

There are no "standards" for plates, not for shape, slot location, bend angle, bend location, or for holes or hole location.

DSS weight plates are waterjet cut to fit DSS plates exactly, and rely on specific holes in the DSS plate to mount.

Other plates will be the wrong shape, and lack the required mounting holes.
