The Easton SV12 Reaction -3 Baseball Bat is the worlds first 12 component Scandium alloy (SV12) which is exclusively branded to Easton bats. SV12 scandium raises the strength and toughness of its alloy to levels never before realized in bat design. Because of the strength and toughness of V12 scandium, Easton has optimized the SV12 BSV1 wall thickness and barrel profiles to create the most durable and high performing aluminum bat on the market. V12 Scandium provides you with streamlined, extremely light swing weight barrels for incredible bat speed. This Easton SV12 BSV1 Composite/Alloy Baseball Bat is enhanced with Easton's New Optimal Hitting Zone or O-Zone. The O-Zone creates a maximum trampoline effect along the entire length of the barrel. CXN Technology Patented ConneXion Design System offer localized flex to optimize the relationship between Easton's multiple flex rated handles and high performance barrels using "hinge" technology for efficient energy transfer, and vibration elimination. This Easton bat includes Pro-Tack Bat Grip, 31/32" Tapered Handle, Handle Flex Rating of 65, and has VRS (Vibration Reduction System) Rating of 90.
