A standard puck weighs between 5.5-6 ozs. Pucks of different masses are used for younger kids and players who want to practice a harder shot. Pucks can range from 4-10 ozs. Players sometimes pratice stickhandling with a 2lb steel puck to increase their wrist strength.

A puck, when used in ice hockey, is a hard black disk of vulcanized rubber. A standard puck is one inch thick (25.4 mm), three inches in diameter (76.2 mm) and weighs between 5.5 and 6 ounces (156-170 g).Today, pucks are frozen a few hours before the game to further reduce bouncing during play.

Standard 7 oz. They can be lighter or heavier depending on the level of playing or type of practice. Normally your younger kids use 4oz pucks and your adults practice w/ heavier pucks to achieve better skills in stick handling(so when they get the lighter puck, they can move quicker)!
