Welcome back fellow Headbangers to another exciting write-up! Today we are introducing the all new Marucci CATX2, the next line of Marucci baseball bats! In this write-up we are going to break down what is new about the CATX2 and what you can expect from this game changing bat.
The CATX2 series will be for all segments of baseball including T-ball, JBB, USA, USSSA and BBCOR! Let's break down what's new starting with the one-piece alloy, going into the connect and finishing off on the full composite.
AVAILABLE JUNE 14th
The CATX2 One-Piece Alloy features patented anti-vibration technology in the knob and endcap to reduce and absorb vibrations from both ends of the bat. The CATX2 is constructed with a ring-free, multi-variable wall design allowing barrel diameters to be built to the maximum limit, creating more surface area and higher overall performance.
- One-Piece Alloy Construction: clean, consistent, traditional swing feel
- Precision Balanced Feel: produces a lower M.O.I. for speed and control
- Liquid-Gel System: patented anti-vibration technology features the optimal amount of liquid-gel in the knob and endcap to reduce and absorb vibrations from both ends of the bat, creating a smooth, solid feel during contact.
- AZR Aluminum: responsive, durable alloy provides better feel, more forgiveness, and more performance.
- Multi-Variable Wall Design: expanded sweet spot and thinner walls for more forgiving off-centered performance.
- Ring-Free Barrel Construction: allows for more barrel flex and increased performance with no "dead" spots.
- Custom-Molded Handle Taper: ergonomically designed for each weight drop for a better fit, more bat control, and a better overall feel between athlete and bat. Designed to be easily removable to fit athletes’ preferences.
- Enhanced Soft-Touch Grip: debossed pattern creates improved feel and control.
The CATX2 One-Piece Alloy Baseball bat is offered for T-Ball, JBB (-10), USA (-11) (-8) and (-5), USSSA (-10) (-8) (-5) and BBCOR (-3) sizes.
