To ensure the Irons maintain their strength and durability, Srixon used Condensed Forging in their ZXi7, ZXi5, and ZXiU Irons. This proprietary technique strengthens specially chosen sections of each Iron to increase their performance. By doing so, the added support allowed engineers to utilize softer, better feeling material in the construction without compromising durability and maintaining a pure feel. Testing showed ZXi7 single-piece body material is 7% softer, while ZXiU and ZXi5 face material is 14% softer than the prior generation of ZX Mk II Irons.
Meanwhile, to maximize softness, each ZXi Iron was carefully tempered inside of a long oven to optimize strength and temperature for Srixon’s softest treatment yet.
Consistency in Every Strike
For ball strikers who value Tour-preferred looks, pro-level feel, and precision workability, the all- new ZXi7 Irons are true players Irons that deliver unparalleled performance from top to bottom.
To help deliver a more stable strike, an expanded PureFrame is forged into the body and placed directly behind the sweet spot to reduce undesired vibrations. With these enhancements, ZXi7 Irons achieve a 9.3% reduction in vibration displacement compared to ZX7 Mk II Irons, translating to a remarkably stable feel at impact.
In the ZXi5, ZXi4, and ZXiU Irons, MainFrame technology is back for a third generation. A variable thickness network of grooves, channels, and notches, MainFrame is milled onto the backside of these Iron faces, helping to maximize flex at impact for more efficient energy transfer into the ball.
The upgraded design features a wider toe-side channel, allowing engineers to reposition up to 2g of mass for a lower CG and more MOI, promoting better ball speed, consistency and forgiveness.
Like past generations, each ZXi Iron was designed with a holistic, family-oriented approach, so models can be blended seamlessly with similar shaping and nearly identical topline thickness to create similar looks at address.
Additional Features & Benefits
– Tour V.T. Sole: Tour V.T. Sole takes turf interaction to a whole new level of detail, with a proprietary combination of sole width, bounces, and notches that encourage cleaner strikes and optimal level of workability to each ZXi Iron model. And for the first time ever, Tour V.T. Sole will be featured on ZXiU Utility Irons for a new dimension of long-game versatility.
– Progressive Grooves: The 3i-7i feature wider grooves, while the 8i-AW have deeper, closer- set grooves to ensure consistent spin across the set. Laser milling between each groove, on every loft, adds bite on every strike.
