Overview
Butterfly lists the Fan Zhendong Super ALC as an offensive shakehand blade with 5-ply + 2 Super ALC construction, 12.1 reaction, 10.1 vibration, an 89 g average weight, and a 157 x 150 mm head. Its product page identifies Super Arylate-Carbon as the material used in the blade.
Construction and context
Butterfly's blade chart abbreviates the material as SALC (Super ALC), while the product page uses Super Arylate-Carbon. These are manufacturer construction labels. This directory does not treat them as independent evidence of a particular feel, speed, stability, or result in play.
Who it may suit
This record can help a shopper check the stated model, head dimensions, thickness, average weight, handle dimensions, construction label, and Butterfly catalogue fields against another exact blade record. Those fields do not establish individual fit or suitability.
Specifications in context
- 5-ply + 2 Super ALC
- This is Butterfly's published construction label for this model; it identifies the stated material configuration without independently testing its effect in play.
- 12.1 reaction and 10.1 vibration
- Butterfly publishes these as blade property values. Use them as manufacturer catalogue fields rather than cross-brand laboratory measurements.
Tradeoffs and caveats
- Butterfly lists 89 g as an average weight; an individual blade need not weigh exactly that amount.
- FL and ST handle options have different published dimensions, so verify the selected configuration before purchase.
- Reaction and vibration are Butterfly catalogue property values, not independent test scores, review ratings, or a guarantee of feel.
