  • Publication number: 20090180918
    Abstract: A titanium-aluminum-tin alloy applied to a golf club head includes 89 wt % to 95 wt % titanium (Ti), 3.5 wt % to 6.5 wt % aluminum (Al), and 1.5 wt % to 3.5 wt % tin (Sn), and minor elements such as niobium (Nb), vanadium (V), molybdenum (Mo), zirconium (Zr), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), silicon (Si), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N) may be selectively added into the titanium-aluminum-tin alloy, so as to form a material with a high elongation from 11% to 15% and a tensile strength from 700 Mpa to 950 Mpa, which can be applied to a main body and a hitting surface of a golf club head, thereby achieving a golf club head product with good hitting sense, desirable damping capability, expected golf-controlling capability and a customized feature of an adjustable angle at a club portion, together with the internal structural designs of the main body, weighting structure, and rib design.

  • Publication number: 20090181794
    Abstract: A titanium-aluminum alloy applied to a golf club head includes 88 wt % to 92 wt % titanium (Ti) and 7.5 wt % to 10 wt % aluminum (Al), and an elongation of the titanium-aluminum alloy is from 8% to 16%. Minor elements such as niobium (Nb), vanadium (V), molybdenum (Mo), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), silicon (Si), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N) may be selectively added into the titanium-aluminum alloy, so as to form a high extensibility material with a tensile strength from 650 Mpa to 950 Mpa, which can be applied to a main body. A golf club head combining a high-stiffness hitting surface, which is made of 6Al-4V—Ti titanium alloy or ? alloy, can achieve a golf club head product with good hitting sense, desirable damping capability, expected golf-controlling capability, and a customized feature of an adjustable angle at a club portion.

  • Publication number: 20090111604
    Abstract: A golf club head is provided. The golf club head comprises a main body and a club portion. The main body has a first junction surface, and the main body is made of a first material. The club portion has a second junction surface, the second junction surface is used to be jointed with the first junction surface, and the club portion is made of a second material. The second material and the first material are substantially different materials. As compared with the first material, the second material has a higher ductility, so after the main body and the club portion are jointed, the club portion has the function of adjusting the angle, the golf club head has a preferred damping effect and a high coefficient of rebound, so as to solve the problem that the integrally-formed main body and the club portion of the conventional golf club head must be manufactured with plenty of expensive material, and to reduce the manufacturing cost.
