The Mitsubishi Diamana GT is one of the 5th generation Diamana models. Mitsubishi Chemical Group is unique among the golf shaft companies, they are vertically integrated. They make all of the critical raw materials that make up the golf shaft including the monomer, acrylic fiber, carbon fiber, resin, and prepreg. Prepreg is the sheets wrapped around mandrels that are the material of the carbon fiber golf shaft. Other golf shaft manufacturers purchase the prepreg used in their shafts. This allows the Mitsubishi Chemical Group to create unique technologies in their golf shaft designs.
Once again, Mitsubishi has reduced resin content in the 5th generation Diamana with a proprietary resin system named Xlink Tech.
