Q: How much Royal Onyx™ should be used when assembling clubs?
A:

Typically, the amount used will depend on the tightness of the fit between hozel and shaft. Royal Onyx™ should be applied so that both the hozel and shaft are completely covered. Typically, 0.6 to 1.0 grams of adhesive will be required depending on tightness of the fit.

 

Q: How quickly can I play with a club assembled with Royal Onyx™?
A:

Most clubs are playable within 45 minutes from the original application. Again, loose fitting clubs do take longer to bond and may require up to a 6 hour cure.

 

Q: How many clubs should I expect to complete with Royal Onyx™?
A:

Typically, a clubmaker can complete up to 75 clubs per one bottle of Royal Onyx™. The number will vary depending on the tightness of fit between shaft and hozel.

 

Q: How do I remove Royal Onyx™ from skin or club head?
A:

Cured or un-cured Royal Onyx™ can be easily removed with acetone.

 

Q: How easily is the club head removed when it becomes necessary?
A:

Royal Onyx™ holds a strong bond up to 230 degrees F. To remove a club head from the shaft, the hozel must be heated past this temperature. An electric heat gun or propane torch will both work well.

 

Q: Are there any other uses for Royal Onyx™?
A: Yes. Royal Onyx™ will bond any close fitting surface including metal, graphite, plastic, wood, and rubber.
