Records

edit

There are twenty powerlifting events, corresponding to ten weight classes each for men and women. The weight categories were significantly adjusted after the 2012 Games so most of the weights are new for 2016. As a result, no Paralympic record was available for this weight class prior to the competition. The existing world records were as follows.

Record Type Weight Country Venue Date
World record 233 kg[2]   Hany Abdelhady (EGY) Dubai 18 February 2016
