Joe,

This weight looks like original equipment the threaded thumb screw is knurled just like the other screws on the key.  The weight and screw are both chromed.  If some one, other than Vibroplex, made them they did a good job.

I have see weights like that, but did not measure them. Whether they are 
original Vibroplex or someone else made them,
I won't even venture a guess. ☺
