Carbonex series rackets has stiff and powerful box construction for high power and consistent control that has made Carbonex Rackets the long-time favorites of hard hitters. Carbonex series rackets are famed for durability and low-torque performance springing from the strong box-like cross section and patented Yonex Built-in T-Joint, which functions to provides a consistently stable hitting surface for power and control. The Yonex patented Built-in T-joint transmits the full energy from the shaft to the frame then to the shuttlecock.

The patented construction results in more power and more accuracy smash after smash.
