ADVANCED COMPOSITES IN SPORTING GOODS
MAKO composite materials excel in the sporting goods industry due to their advanced material properties that meet the rigorous demands across a wide range of sports disciplines. With an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, MAKO carbon fiber prepregs enable the production of lightweight yet highly durable sports equipment, enhancing both performance and longevity. This is crucial for sports like cycling, where reduced weight and increased strength translate to better speed and endurance. For team sports like hockey and football, MAKO's highly toughened resins are used in helmets and protective gear, providing athletes with reliable protection without sacrificing mobility. MAKO adhesive films and pastes comply with stringent industry standards, ensuring that sports equipment meets safety and performance requirements. This reliability makes MAKO materials a top choice for manufacturers aiming to deliver high-quality, durable, and high-performance sports equipment across various disciplines, including composite bike frames, graphite golf shafts, carbon fiber pickleball paddles and hockey sticks, fiberglass pole vaults and more.
Applications
- Composite Bicycles: Our carbon fiber prepregs are used in the fabrication of lightweight and strong bicycle frames. MAKO toughened resins and Vibration Reduction films eliminate road harshness and resulting fatigue, allowing riders to go faster and further than ever before.
- Golf Clubs: MAKO prepregs contribute to the development of high-performance golf shafts, allowing for custom flex profiles and rapid cure for mass production. MAKO adhesive pastes can permanently bond the club head to shaft. MAKO Vibration Reduction films can improve the feel of your next generation of clubs to make your line stand apart from the rest.
- Protective Gear: For contact sports such as football, hockey, and lacrosse, MAKO prepregs and adhesive films are utilized in helmets, pads, and other protective gear. Their impact resistance and durability provide athletes with reliable protection while maintaining comfort and mobility.
- Fishing: Fishing rods benefit from MAKO carbon fiber prepregs due to their tailored response to flex, which is crucial for casting and reeling in fish. These properties provide anglers with better control and responsiveness.
- Skiing and Snowboarding: MAKO prepregs and PTM&W laminating resins are used in the construction of skis and snowboards, where their high resistance to wear and impact ensures durability and performance on rugged terrain. They also contribute to the lightweight nature of the equipment, improving maneuverability.
- Pole Vaults: MAKO prepregs are used in the fabrication of high-performance pole vaults for track and field athletes. Utilizing unique fabric architecture and proprietary resins selected for high flexural strength and longevity, MAKO can help your athletes reach higher and more consistent results in competition.
