FULL DESCRIPTION
TENSEI™ 1K Black is built specifically to suit powerful swings with no sacrifice in feel and responsiveness. TENSEI™ 1K Black utilizes a focused application of 1K carbon fiber, the same high-performance material featured in TENSEI™ 1K Pro White, to increase strength in the handle, drive down torque and provide the signature “1K feel.” TENSEI™ 1K BLACK also utilizes Mitsubishi’s Xlink Tech™ Resin System in the tip section to bolster the shaft’s tip strength and increase the shaft’s durability. Tip stiffness and torque are further controlled through the use of 40-ton carbon fiber in the shaft’s construction. Add the subtle, yet premium matte clear finish and you get a shaft that gives high speed players the low launch, low spin performance with great feel they need with the good looks they desire.

Questions & Answers
Have a Question?
-
Tensei Black 1K vs Diamana BB, what are the main differences?
If your ball flight is currently too high or you're needng a little extra spin, go with the Tensei Black 1K. If you want balanced performance across mid-launch and mid-spin with a smoother feel, Diamana BB. Both are Mitsubishi performance and both are excellent. The Tensei is the more aggressive profile. Most players who know they need low-low end up on the Tensei. Players who want versatility land on the Diamana BB.
-
What's the launch and spin?
Low launch, low spin, 81–106 mph sweet spot. Mitsubishi uses Xlink Tech resin in the tip section for added durability and tip stiffness control. The 1K handle keeps the whole shaft from twisting under an aggressive transition. It rewards players who load the shaft hard — the faster you swing, the more it responds.
-
What makes the Tensei Black 1K different from other low-spin shafts?
The key feature of the Tensei Black 1K is the 1K carbon fiber in the handle section. It's the same material used in the Tensei 1K Pro White, applied specifically to drive down torque and give the butt a distinctive "locked in" feel. It's a low-launch, low-spin shaft for quick tempo swings (with speeds between 81–106 mph), but the feel is unusually smooth for something that aggressive. If you've tried other low-spin options and found them too stiff or boardy, the Tensei Black 1K is worth a look.
