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 ...

3. Obsolete golf clubs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsolete_golf_clubs

   These early clubs had hickory shafts and wrapped leather grips. To secure the joins between the shaft and the head of the club, and between the grip and the shaft, whipping of black, waxed linen thread was used. Pre-1900 clubs (smooth-faced gutty era) used seven-ply thread. Clubs from the era 1900 to 1935 required four-ply thread.

4. Graphite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite

   The expanded graphite can be used to make graphite foil or used directly as a "hot top" compound to insulate molten metal in a ladle or red-hot steel ingots and decrease heat loss, or as firestops fitted around a fire door or in sheet metal collars surrounding plastic pipe (during a fire, the graphite expands and chars to resist fire ...

5. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

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

   The following stresses are induced in the shafts. Shear stresses due to the transmission of torque (due to torsional load). Bending stresses (tensile or compressive) due to the forces acting upon the machine elements like gears and pulleys as well as the self weight of the shaft. Stresses due to combined torsional and bending loads.

6. Spur gear - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spur_gear

   Spur gear. Spur gears or straight-cut gears are the simplest type of gear.They consist of a cylinder or disk with teeth projecting radially. Viewing the gear at 90 degrees from the shaft length (side on) the tooth faces are straight and aligned parallel to the axis of rotation.

7. Fishing rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_rod

   Today's most popular rod tends to be graphite for its light weight characteristics and its ability to allow for further and more accurate cast. [8] [9] Graphite rods tend to be more sensitive, allowing the user to feel bites from fish easier. Modern fishing rods retain cork as a common material for grips. Cork is light, durable, and keeps warm.
