Thinnest 7-ply composite blade

Hi, I am a new member here but been visiting this site for years now. Please bear with me.

Same question may had been posted before but technology is changing so maybe better to post a new thread.

I am looking for OFF/OFF+ thinnest 7-ply (5+2) composite blade, anything you can think of?

Maker:
Model:
Thickness:

@silva7, thank you for the info. TBS is thin enough but maybe there's a thinner 5+2 out there.
MJ is 3W+2ZLC.

Xiom V1 is 5.4mm thick, V1 Quad is 5.6mm thick.

Thanks again guys. Didn't expect that there are many blades thinner than 5.7mm, need to check them all online and visit the store.

@vvk1
I assume that it is the first Calix. Checked the site, they have Calix 2 but not that much info of weight, thickness and material.

@silva7
confirmed, MJ is 7-ply.

stiga intensity carbon = about 5.6mm

729 f-1 ... awesome blade..

I have both Nexy Calix and Nexy Calix II, and they're probably the thinnest composite blades I know of. They both feature burnt mahogany outer plies (if I remember correctly), so this combined with the thinness, gives them a hard and fast speed, but with more flex and a more 'traditional wood feel' than the average composite blade.

Xiom V1 is 5mm ( http://tak9.com/mall.php?cat=006001000&query=view&no=3588)

Nittaku Noveliar, 5.8mm, G carbon with hinoki outers.

Any particular reason for the thinnest?

sure

In my experience, Calix is quite a bit thinner than Xiom V1... I have both blades, and the V1 I have is about 5.3mm, while the Calix is about 4.8mm.

Sorry for the double-post.

The BTY TB ZLF should be about 5.4mm thick, and will weigh 80g - 83g. Specify exactly what you want with the distributor when you order. It's a great blade - I fully recommend it.

Why does this happen - flex bad for close to the table when paired with hard sponge? what happens is to use the sponge the ball needs to penetrate it.... deform it.  So you need good compression between the blade and the rubber. Now the flex blades exhert that pressure only after it has flexed much.... the pressure increases proportionally with the amount of deformation (shear strain). So only when you go for a full bodies shot then the rubber will get properly squeezed to produce a predictable lift.  in short opening strokes that much of pressure(perpendicular component) is not generated. hence there is tendency of ball slippage ...going to net.  makes any sense?
