Butterfly Rubber Specifications

A table tennis rubber is made from a combination of a top sheet and a sponge (except for Rubbers without sponge).

Top Sheet

The top sheet is the surface on which the ball hits. Therefore, the performance or characteristics of the top sheet has a significant influence on the game. Butterfly rubbers are available in black and red top sheet colours for each rubber. As stated in the ITTF Rules, “The surface of the covering material on a side of the blade, or of a side of the blade if it is left uncovered, shall be matt, black on one side, and of a bright colour clearly distinguishable from black and from the colour of the ball on the other”. This means if black rubber is applied to the forehand side, red rubber must be applied to the backhand side (or vice versa). There is no difference in rubber performance between different top sheet colours.

Sponge

The sponge thickness/hardness varies the performance of the rubber which influences your game.

Sponge Thickness

Each rubber has a lineup of multiple sponge thicknesses. You can choose your sponge thickness depending on the performance you desire.

Sponge Hardness

The hardness of the sponge is measured by Butterfly’s own standard. The higher the value, the harder it is, and the lower the value the softer it is.

Long pimpled rubber

Long pimpled rubber

A long pimpled rubber with unexpected variety of rotations as the pimples easily transform on contact.

High Tension long pimpled rubber

| BLADES

Butterfly Carbon -Fiber Technologies

The regulations of the International Table Tennis Federation state: “At least 85 % of the blade by thickness shall be of natural wood.” In other words, we may adopt any special materials for the remaining 15 % for reinforcement. However, no high-performance rackets will be

produced only by attaching some special materials without analysis; balance is crucial to make the best product. Butterfly will continue to research materials that best suit the techniques of future generations as well as continually improving the quality of the blade.

Super Arylate-Carbon achieves a higher bounce by weaving in a larger amount of fibers than conventional Arylate-Carbon. In addition, adjusting the ratio of Arylate and carbon materials maintains blade suppleness which is a characteristic achieved via the use of Arylate-Carbon.

Arylate-Carbon is a fiber used in many popular Butterfly blades and is used to produce stability and precision while providing increased ball dwell time compared to harder blades. ALC blades offer versatility, its typical “touch” in topspin play is favoured by many professional players as well.

New processing techniques allow a denser link between Carbon and ZL-Fiber, leading to a blade with very little energy loss on the edges and a bigger and more homogenous “high reaction area”. This enhances the strengths of ZLC blades even more. Blades with Super ZLC fibers are fast with high precision and a direct touch, yet produce a fantastic feeling for any spin play.

Linking ZL-Fibers and carbon increases the stability and stiffness of the blade and results in a bigger “high reaction area” and less energy loss around the edges. ZLC blades are usually stable and fast with a harder touch that allows very precise play as well as spinny top spins. In comparison to softer blades, especially all-wood blades, the ball dwell time of ZLC blades is reduced, requiring a certain degree of technical skill to produce high amounts of spin.

ZL-Fiber is a remarkably thin and hardened material lending speed, lightness and a homogenous bounce to the blade. Blades with ZLF are commonly known for their lightness and controlled, soft touch with an increased ball dwell time that makes it easier to actively create spin compared to harder blades.

Very thin fiber obtained by finely loosening plant fibers such as wood to Nanometer size, Cellulose Nano Fiber (CNF) enables blades with low vibration, providing the feeling of “holding the ball” to the blade, despite high reaction values.

The CAF (Control Assist Fiber) fiber increases the stability of a blade and provides a constant bounce all across the blade’s surface. As a result, the precision of the blade is increased, as is the feeling of control during active play.

Tamca 5000 is a carbon fiber, enhancing stability and precision of a blade, enabling the production of fast and dynamic blades with a moderate weight. Usually, T5000 blades are fast, direct and precise with a hard touch, supporting especially powerful fast play close to the table.

Blades made from natural wood

Wood is a natural raw material. As such, variations in density resulting from varying growing conditions of trees are to be expected and can influence the actual weight of a blade. At Butterfly, we strife to make sure these weight variations are kept at a minimum, however variations of a few grams in weight of a blade may occur. Therefore, we refrain from stating a specific weight within our catalogue.

Blade size

The Diode V fulfils all requirements posted to a successor of the popular Joo Saehyuk blade. Its 5-ply composition using hard surface veneers and the enlarged blade head support modern defensive play while providing power for offensive shots as well. € 79.90

Reaction Property

The Reaction Property is the quantified value illustrating the base speed of a blade. A low reaction property signifies a lower speed of the ball after contact with the blade. A high reaction property signifies a higher speed of the ball after impact.

The Vibration Property is the quantified value illustrating the feeling of a blade on impact. A low vibration property in general signifies slower vibration on ball contact and denotes a blade with a softer touch.

Kyoto HS

25 mm surface | low height | playback function

The Butterfly Kyoto HS is a compact table tennis table equipped with a high-quality, fixed net set1. The special multi-coated 25mm surface has a very good bounce. Thanks to the ITTF approval, it can be used for competitive play, but also in schools, leisure facilities or in the private sector. The chassis is equipped with 4 swivelling wheels2 (diameter 100 mm with rubber tread), 2 of which have a parking brake. Height-adjustment glides3 on the rear stand legs ensure compensation for unevenness and different stand heights of up to 25 mm. The innovative bracket system4 with brackets under the frame profile unlocks both safety catches at the same time. The locking takes place automatically in the stop and playback position5 The playback position also allows for individual training. The table must be assembled after delivery (2 individual boxes).

Parking dimensions: B 152.5 cm (with net 184 cm) × H 155 cm × T 69.5 cm

Europa II

25mm surface | ready-assembled | easy to transport

The table model that has been tried and tested for many years has a new look and a modified underframe. Due to its high stability and small footprint1, we recommend the Europa 25 II for clubs and schools that have limited storage space. The table consists of two separate halves, each with a stable steel base. This ensures a secure stand, is folded away for storage2 (snap-lock system for fixing the legs) and therefore takes up very little space. Transport is possible thanks to the two castors3 (diameter 128 mm with rubber tread), which are mounted on the net edge side of the two halves. The castors are not visible during play. The Europa 25 II table model is pre-assembled at the factory (except for the wheels) and is approved by the ITTF for competitive play, including the European safety certificate (EN 14468-1).

Parking dimensions: B 152.5 cm × H 159 cm × T 48 cm

Centrefold 25

25+ surface | ready assembled | super compact system

Our top of the range table is the Butterfly Centrefold 25. It has been selected for the World Championships and many other international and national competitions. The Centrefold 25 is a heavy duty match table used by top clubs, sports centers and for international match play. Its main advantage is the 25+ top (see info box).

This ingredient added to the surface increases the consistency and reliability of the bounce of the ball for both topspin and backspin shots so producing excellent playability. It reduces skid and gives players every confidence to play their shots. The top is protected by a strong steel frame with magenta corner pieces. The undercarriage is one of the strongest available. It incorporates 4 large Steinco 125 mm strong wheels ¹, 2 of which have brakes. This guarantees both firm standing and easy movement. Transportation and storage is easy with the unique space saver system which makes folding and rolling the table simple and safe. The table tops fold together at the center ⁵, reducing the width in the storage position to only 20 inches or 51 centimeters. A unique easy to use safety system ³ prevents the table from opening and closing accidentally. A perfectly level playing surface is achieved by use of the height adjusters ² on all four of the end legs.

The Centrefold 25 table is one of the few top match models which is wheelchair friendly.

Parking dimensions: B 152.5 cm × H 159 cm × T 48 cm

25+ Surface –a very special detail

The 25+ surface provides a finer grain compared to regular table surfaces, which not only results in a constant ball bounce and increased durability, but also reduces skid. This Technology was optimized for the requirements of cell-free balls. The clean imparting of spin onto the ball creates a playing experience of the highest order.

Used with: Centrefold 25, Octet 25

Octet 25

25+ surface | flexible | space saving

The Butterfly Octet 25 mm is a top competition table that provides all the benefits of the 25+ top (see infobox on page 4) combined with an undercarriage with 2 separate halves and 8 wheels. The top is protected by a strong steel frame with magenta corner pieces. It is supported by a heavy duty undercarriage. A perfectly level playing surface is archived by use of the height adjusters ⁴ on all four of the corner legs.

The Butterfly Octet 25 divides into two halves, both fold for easy movement and storage. Each half has four strong independent Steinco wheels³. The brakes and locking mechanism prevent accidental opening or closing of the table ² / ⁶. The table stores away economically with the two halves fitting together. The total width of the table for storage is only 63 cm. For multi table use the tables can be rolled together for even more compact storage ⁵.

Another popular feature of the table is the playback facility where one half can be set in the storage position, the other in the play position with the net and post set in place. This provides the opportunity for extra practice when a partner is not available. The table requires assembly and clear instructions are provided.

The Butterfly Octet 25 is International Table Tennis Federation approved, and holds a European safety (EN 14468-1) certificate.
