What is a one-piece hockey stick?

<< Back

A one-piece hockey stick is a type of hockey stick that is made from a single piece of material, typically carbon fiber or fiberglass. It is designed to provide a consistent and durable feel throughout the stick, as well as improved performance and accuracy. The one-piece construction also makes the stick lighter and more responsive than traditional two-piece sticks. While these sticks may be more expensive than their two-piece counterparts, they are often preferred by professional and high-level players due to their superior performance and durability.
 

Here are some more information you need to understand before starting to customize your hockey stick.

Traditional two-piece hockey stick construction requires you to make sure the inside dimensions of the shaft match with the outside dimensions of the blade insert part. Here you can check our hockey shaft information, which is suitable for standard senior blades on the market.

Fused two-piece hockey stick construction involves fusing the stick at the factory, so there is no need to consider the side issue, but bad fused two-piece technology can lead to a strange stick profile, like the left stick in the photo.

Some other stick factories have changed to one-piece construction in recent years.

Spear one-piece is a widely used technology, like Sherwood. And you may also hear about true one-piece construction (also known as genuine one-piece construction), which is found on top-end sticks.

There are some advantages to true one-piece construction.
1) the appearance will be better, as it will be made from a single complete carbon fiber cloth; 2) stable quality, making it easy for workers to produce; and 3) better laminate design for engineers, as they do not need to consider the strength of the joint part.

However, there are some drawbacks, such as high production costs and lower output.

With years of development, technologies have become stable for most standard factories, and more and more high-quality stick models are appearing on the market.
