Golfers have
been waiting for years to see a
tangible difference in steel
shaft design, so FST proudly
introduces the KB Series steel
shafts — an all-new premium line
of steel shafts engineered by
industry-acclaimed steel shaft
designer Kim Braly and featuring
advanced Moment of Inertia
technology.
“Shaft
performance is critical in
placing the clubhead in the
correct position at impact, but
most steel shafts on the market
today fail to reach the level of
performance and feel necessary
to respond effectively in the
players’ hands, especially just
prior to impact,” says Braly,
whose steel shafts designs are
currently being played by many
of the Top 10 players in the
world. “The KB steel shafts use
an intelligent design to upgrade
the performance with MOI
technology and a proportional
reduction in mass and radius
during the step progression.”
The new KB
Series steel shafts are unlike
anything on the market today.
FST researched a wide variety of
tubular structures that endure
large stresses or loads and
applied a revolutionary new
approach with MOI analysis. KB
steel shafts also incorporate
FST’s high-quality precision
manufacturing processes, such
as:
• Exclusive
‘Oil-Quench’ tempering method
which produces shafts that are
arrow-straight from butt to tip.
• Tapered tip construction to
provide a solid metal-to-metal
bond in the hosel and
tour-proven feel at impact.
• Higher-than-traditional center
of gravity construction to allow
for more mass in the club head.
• Matching shaft weight and
frequency to the strictest
tolerances to ensure peak
playing performance and
guaranteed repeatability.
FST remains
exclusively dedicated to the
design and development of
high-quality steel golf shafts,
and KB technology will
re-introduce true performance
benefits of playing steel to
golfers around the world.
