BELLINGHAM, Wash. – SteelFiber graphite iron shafts, designed and manufactured by Aerotech Golf, continue to be the No. 1 graphite iron shaft on every major pro golf tour. This week, SteelFiber shafts scored a victory for the Rolex Player of the Year, won the coveted CME Race for the Globe Trophy and captured the 2016 Money Title on the LPGA Tour. During the 2016 season, SteelFiber shafts also delivered 19 wins on pro tours around the world – more wins that any graphite iron shaft in the history of golf.
SteelFiber shafts are well-known for delivering the power of graphite and the stability of steel shafts, and they have racked up impressive statistics that illustrate the game-changing performance benefits of SteelFiber technology. For example, SteelFiber graphite iron shafts led the LPGA Tour in Greens in Regulation (78.6%) and in number of birdies (469).
“We’re excited to be one of the very few shaft manufacturers in the world to have won both FedEx Cup and CME Race for the Globe trophies,” said Aerotech Golf President Chris Hilleary. “SteelFiber shafts have proven themselves on professional tours around the world by providing unique and game-changing performance advantages. Unlike steel shafts which have basically remained unchanged for 80 years, SteelFiber innovative technology delivers stability and increases distance, while at the same time reducing a player’s risk of injury, lessening aggravation of existing injuries and decreasing player fatigue. This unique combination of benefits allows players of all ages and skill levels to play their best for longer periods of time and finish strong.”
SteelFiber shafts provide superior performance through innovative composite engineering that combines a high-modulus graphite core with 59 miles of steel fiber lacing the shaft surface. The shaft’s graphite core provides vibration dampening, increased clubhead speed and maximum distance, while the steel fibers produce optimum weighting for a solid feel at impact and add stability and control for pinpoint accuracy.
In the 2016 season, SteelFiber shafts have delivered 19 wins on pro tours around the world. Players with SteelFiber shafts routinely rank high on the PGA Money List, Official World Golf Rankings and the FedEx Cup Season Points. For example, SteelFiber players ranked No. 2 and No. 3 in the FedEx Cup Season Points and ended overall as No. 3 and No. 5 on the PGA Money List in 2013, and SteelFiber won the FedEx Cup in 2012.
Aerotech Golf shafts are available as custom options with many nationally celebrated golf club manufacturers such as Callaway, Titleist, TaylorMade, Ping, Nike Golf, Bridgestone Golf, Wilson, Cleveland Golf, Miura, Srixon, KZG and Nakashima Golf.
