Iomic has made a major break through in the golf grip industry designing the top performing golf grips in golf. Iomic grips are technically proven and one of the top golf grips on the PGA tour and is one of the fastest growing golf companies in the world. Iomic grips models such as the Sticky, X Evolution, X Grip, and a complete line of putters with a wide range of attractive colors.

The best thing with Iomic grips you will get 3 times the life of the grips than any other golf grip on the market due to the patent process. In the past, most golf grips were made out of rubber, which was not resistant to ultraviolet rays. Those grips would soon begin to crack, and would not be of use within a short amount of time. So, to make the rubber last longer, they would add carbon, which would make the grip more resistant to ultraviolet. But similar to pencil lead, carbon's color is black; therefore the only color available was black.

Recently, other companies have produced colored grips like ours. They are using a material called ABR. (Thermoplastic Rubber). We also thought about using ABR, however during testing ABR showed problems with adhesiveness and was slippery when wet. We therefore abandoned it use. IOMIC decided rubber was an unacceptable material and looked for something totally new and more resistant to ultraviolet rays.

We considered silicon, which had the softness that was ideal for grips but it had a high adhesion factor which a grip can not have. We then tried elastomers. There are over 30 different elastomers. By repeated testing of different combinations, we chose a combination of 5 elastomers for the IOMIC grip. We then added different materials for water-resistance, just the right amount of adhesiveness and friction-resistance. Elastomer's natural color is white, so we can manufacture IOMIC grips in any color.

The manufacturing method for the IOMIC grip is different from the rubber grip. It is called "injection manufacturing." This method produces the product by injecting it into a die at high temperatures (200 degrees Celsius). This produces a product with little weight variation (Error within ±0.5g). In contrast the rubber grip has a high weight unevenness and its surface needs to be scraped after being removed from the die. The product from the injection method has no need to be scraped.

Looking at a rubber grip through a microscope, there are innumerable air holes like a sponge. When looking at the IOMIC grip, its shape is similar to a tightly wrung out sponge. As a result, its friction-resistance-ratio and water-suction ability are high.

The shaft maker tries to make a shaft that suppresses torque and twists. However, a grip with torque reduces the effectiveness of a shaft with little torque.

Normally a soft grip would have a large amount of torque. IOMIC has been successful in making a grip with less torque but still soft. IOMIC grips have a surface design that reduces torque. Also because of the material IOMIC grips are made of, they are made in a depth of 0.3mm as opposed to rubber at a depth of 0.5mm. This reduction in depth helps to reduce torque. The IOMIC X-GRIP is used by many top amateur and professional players. We proudly take that as evidence that our grip can support the 50 m/s head speed that these player reach.
