The Falcon Diamond padel racket features a diamond‑shaped head that positions the sweet spot higher on the face, favoring aggressive net play while retaining sufficient power for baseline shots.
Its competitive price results from an optimized layup schedule and automated fiber placement, which reduces material waste without lowering the structural safety factor below 2.5 for typical impact loads.
Overall length measures 455 mm, head width 260 mm, and frame thickness 38 mm, dimensions that conform to International Padel Federation specifications for adult rackets.
Weight typically falls between 340 g and 360 g, with a balance point located 260 mm from the handle end, providing a head‑light feel that improves maneuverability.
The laminate consists of approximately 70 % carbon fiber and 30 % glass fiber, impregnated with a low‑viscosity epoxy resin and cured under vacuum bagging to achieve a flexural modulus of ~45 GPa.
The core is a high‑density EVA foam with a nominal density of 35 kg/m³, selected for its energy return ratio of 0.55 and vibration damping characteristics.
Unidirectional carbon fiber tapes are wrapped around the frame and over‑molded with a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) edge guard, increasing edge impact resistance by roughly 30 % compared with unprotected carbon edges.
Automated fiber placement ensures fiber orientation tolerance within ±2°, keeping internal void content below 0.5 % as measured by ultrasonic C‑scan.
| Parameter | Typical Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Weight | 340–360 g | Depends on layup thickness |
| Balance Point | 260 mm from handle | Head‑light configuration |
| Swing Weight | ≈250 kg·cm² | Measured with RAE protocol |
| Flexural Stiffness | 45 GPa (modulus) | Three‑point bend test |
| Surface Roughness (Ra) | 12 µm | Polyurethane coating for spin |
| Core Density | 35 kg/m³ | EVA foam |
Clubs and academies benefit from the diamond shape’s elevated sweet spot, which supports volley‑heavy tactics common in doubles play.
Recreational facilities select this model for its balanced weight distribution, reducing player fatigue during extended sessions.
The racket’s durability under repeated high‑impact ball strikes makes it suitable for training environments where rackets experience frequent clashing with walls or nets.
Each unit undergoes coordinate‑measuring machine verification of length, width, and thickness, with tolerances held to ±0.5 mm.
Weight is checked on a calibrated scale; any piece outside the 340–360 g range is diverted for rework.
Flexural stiffness is confirmed via three‑point bend testing, and impact resistance is evaluated using a standardized ball‑drop test at 30 J.
Ultrasonic C‑scan inspections detect internal voids or delaminations; acceptance criterion is <0.5 % void area per laminated panel.
