New Oil Can Finish Spices Up Titleist T-Series Irons

Every iron hits a point during its lifecycle when a manufacturer wants to give it some new life in the eyes of the consumer. In almost every case, this doesn't mean introducing a new design—it means introducing a new finish, and for Titleist and their T-series, the limited edition oil can Vokeys were such a hit, they decided to bring it to the irons.

As for the science-y stuff, the oil can finish isn't exactly a true oil can like back in the day, where the metal would be heat-treated and dunked in oil to create the rust-resistant surface finish. Instead, the finish is applied through a PVD treatment to produce a rich copper color. This finishing technique offers way better durability while also minimizing the reflective nature of the iron.

To go along with the custom finish, the irons can also be ordered with custom copper-colored Titleist Golf Pride full cord Z-Grips and True Temper Onyx shafts. And, in true Titleist fashion, these limited-edition irons are fully available right- and left-handed and can be custom-ordered in combo sets.

The T-Series Tech Details

T100

The T100 utilizes the tungsten cavity to increase MOI but has more mass behind the center of the face for a more dense and solid feel.

The T100 also now come with a muscle channel in the longer irons (technology that debuted in the T150s) to improve ball speed and launch condition consistency in the longer irons.

T150

Sitting between the T100 and the new T250, the T150 offers a combination of higher launch and lower spin to stretch distance gapping and add forgiveness.

Like the T100 the T150 features updated internals for more forgiveness, a thicker area behind the center of the face for better feel, and the improved groove design.

T250 and T350

The re-engineered bodies of the T250 and 350 create a more solid structure and allow the internal max impact technology to fit tighter against the forged L face. The soles have been redesigned to provide enhanced playability for almost any lie, and from a shaping perspective, both irons now have a more progressive blade length (overall size from the toe to the heel), so the mid irons flow better into the wedges.

Price & Availability

The T-Series Oil Can irons are available for pre-sale today, March 12th, and will be available in golf shops worldwide starting Thursday, March 26.

They are priced at $285 per club with steel and $299 per club with graphite shafts.
