Material Highlights
1. Surface Material
Fiberglass
Fiberglass:A very common paddle surface material.
- excellent control
- relatively affordable
- better ball feel and spin control.
Carbon Fiber
Carbon Fiber: include T300,T700,3K,12K,18K.
- provide stronger hitting power
- precise control
Aramid fiber
Kevlar (Aramid fiber) : high-performance fibers.
- Tensile Strength
- lighter than carbon fiber
- Temperature Resistance

High-Performance Core
2. Core Material
Polypropylene honeycomb
- This is the most common core material, known for being lightweight, durable, and offering excellent elasticity and control.
- It suitable for players of all levels, especially beginners and intermediate players.
Nomex honeycomb
- This material is harder, offering stronger bounce and control, but is relatively lightweight.
- It is typically used in high-end paddles and is suitable for more advanced players. (Low market order volume)
Durable Handle Wrapping
3. Handle Filler
- It is typically made of EVA material pads (cold-pressed paddles), PU foam filling (hot-pressed paddles), or other lightweight materials.
Durable Handle Wrapping
4. Handle Wrapping
- It is then wrapped with a layer of anti-slip grip. The grip material is usually rubber, foam, or synthetic material, providing a comfortable hold and excellent anti-slip performance.
Durable Edge Protection
5. Edge Wrapping
- It is usually wrapped with a protective edge frame material, typically made of TPU strips (TPU strip colors can be customized).
- This edge frame not only provides external protection to prevent edge damage but also helps balance the weight distribution of the paddle.
