New Purchase: PXG Gen5 P Irons w/KBS 130X Shafts -- What Tip Size?


Recommended Posts

I'm going to reshaft these to graphite.  Just wondering if anyone has experience with knowing what type of shafts PXG uses?  Do they use .370 or .355 as part of standard builds?  I understand that either size can be used, I'm hoping to sell the shafts, thus the question.

Pxg uses .370 and a priority ferrule. 

 

Thanks for the info.  What is a "priority" ferrule?  Is that an autocorrect for collared?

Hard to tell from their site but it appears the stock shaft in irons is .370, but there are both .370 and .355 options in the drop down.  When looking at the KBS Tour, they list taper as the option.  If these were originally  made by PXG then at least some evidence they are taper.  Curious about your findings once you take them apart.

Ping and PXG have "universal" hosels. They are designed to take both tip sizes. The ferrule fits and centers the shaft in the hosel.

The clubs arrive tomorrow.  Bought from PXG Express.  No info on the shafts other than KBC Tour 130 X flex.

 

I'll pull the shafts and measure then. 

 

Just to be clear, I know how to build the clubs.  My question relates to wondering what kind of shafts PXG uses.

I would just call PXG and ask them.  They use both taper and parallel shafts for their builds.  I have a set of factory installed dynamic gold 105 shafts in my irons and they are taper.

 

Delivery was pushed back to tomorrow.  I'll pull the shafts then and measure.  Hope they are taper.

Taper tip.

 

Interestingly, I didn't find any sort of adapter cup for the shaft tip, or a shim.  PXG just slammed the taper shaft into the parallel hosel, using a collared ferrule and lots of glue.
