A recently developed application of Thin Ply Technology® is the manufacture of carbon golf shafts (or graphite golf shafts as they’re known in that market). These high performance carbon tubes require accurate fibre placement, and flexibility to modify fibre type (modulus) and orientation, to achieve the range of flex (stiffness), torque, and feel that athletes need. Thin Ply Technology® eliminates the spine which is inevitable with traditional roll-wrapping and ensures a concentric high performance tube with equal stiffness in all directions.
