Composite Techno FireExpress HR:”HOT ROD” has the fastest impact in the series!
Fire Express made its brand debut in 2009. The 10th anniversary shaft is the Fire Express HR, which focuses on distance performance.
When considering the factors for increasing flight distance, the simplest thing is “head speed up”. With the latest design, it suppresses extreme turns of the face and is equipped with a function to increase head speed while maintaining directional stability.
Many players who start using the HR will initially find it a bit too grabby or top-heavy.
This is due to the head running faster than expected. When players are able to handle the speed of the HR, they will be able to achieve distances that were not possible with conventional shafts, making this shaft “challenging”.
The weight range is 40g, 50g, and 60g. The outer layer of the shaft features a new “6AX SOF” (6-axis braided fabric sheet). This reduces deformation in all directions and improves directional stability.
The 40g range is a bold design that uses Toray’s TORAYCA®T1100G high elasticity high strength (high tensile graphite) for more than 80% of the shaft lamination.
A “tungsten powder sheet” is used at the tip of the shaft to reduce the hit and loss that is common with lightweight shafts, while still producing head travel. The low launch angle, which tends to be a problem for golfers with head speeds in the 30’s, is eliminated, allowing for a more relaxed swing.
In addition to the highly elastic sheet of 40t for the 50g range and 50t for the 60g range, “TORAYCA® T1100G” is used for the entire length. The laminated layer with a high elasticity ratio, combined with the 6-axis braided cloth, gives a sharp feeling reminiscent of a sports car that runs agile and light.
The middle section is reinforced with “TORAYCA® T1100G” for the 40g level, and the 50g level and 60g level are 10-axis structures combined with the 6-axis braid of the outer layer using the 4-axis braid. We have succeeded in achieving the tip of the run while stabilizing the swing plane without increasing the rigidity excessively.
As the appearance, the exterior has a red clear finish on the hand and tip. The gold in the middle is the basic color of the Fire Express series. When the shaft is exposed to sunlight on the course, the deep and transparent appearance of the shaft reflects the hexagonal fabric sheet, and the player’s feelings are excitedly heightened as a hot rod.
