2. Shaft (golf) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(golf)

   The shaft is roughly .58 inch/14.7 millimeters in diameter near the grip and between 35 and 48 inches/89–115 cm in length. Shafts weigh between 45 and 150 grams depending on the material and length. Graphite shafts are woven from carbon fiber and are generally lighter in weight than steel shafts. Graphite shafts became popular among amateurs ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golf_club

   A golf club is a club used to hit a golf ball in a game of golf.Each club is composed of a shaft with a grip and a club head. Woods are mainly used for long-distance fairway or tee shots; irons, the most versatile class, are used for a variety of shots; hybrids that combine design elements of woods and irons are becoming increasingly popular; putters are used mainly on the green to roll the ...

   Later, as more malleable iron became widely used for shorter-range clubs, an even wider variety of clubs became available. Many of the clubs manufactured between 1901 and 1935 came from Scotland, [2] but more and more started coming from larger US manufacturers. These early clubs had hickory shafts and wrapped leather grips. To secure the joins ...

   A 4-wood is sometimes seen instead of a 3-wood (to fine-tune range differences between a player's driver and fairway wood), while a 5-wood is a common addition to the 3-wood for players who prefer fairway woods to long irons for play through the green. 7-woods are rarer in men's clubs but more common in ladies' and seniors' sets, again as a ...

   During a fire the graphite intumesces (expands and chars) to resist fire penetration and prevent the spread of fumes. A typical start expansion temperature (SET) is between 150 and 300 °C. Graphite's specific gravity is 2.3, which makes it less dense than diamond. Graphite is slightly more reactive than diamond.

7. Mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes - Wikipedia

   The surface wettability of CNT is of importance for its applications in various settings. Although the intrinsic contact angle of graphite is around 90°, the contact angles of most as-synthesized CNT arrays are over 160°, exhibiting a superhydrophobic property.
