Fire is the ultimate stick from Mercian, the top of teh M-TEK range. It includes all the performance characteristics of the Lava with important and innovative improvement. Some players want a stiff stick to feel stiff. However, some players want to protect themselves from the vibrations that can occur in a super - stiff stick. The innovative material in the Fire dampens the vibrations, making a stiff stick that gives maximum energy transfer and yet has the associated "touch" and "feel" of a mid-specification composite. This results in a greater cushioning on receiving the ball.

Patented by Head in tennis, Mercian have a patent pending on the use of PISO - ELECTRIC fibres within a hockey stick. These fibres are an active molecule material. The vibrations from hitting and receiving the ball move up the shaft until they hit thr PISO - ELECTRIC fibres. This causes the molecules to vibrate, changing the energy of the vibrations into electricity and, in this case, heat. If a player were to hit a ballconstantly for 24 hours, the area containing the fibres would heat up, but the quantity of energy converted is so low it does not create any immediate noticeable effect. If a stick was made with full shaft of PISO - ELECTRIC fibre and connected to an electric circuit, a small bulb could be lit with the energy created!

The Lava represents another significant step for the technical specifications of Mercian composites. The CB2 shape is created from a fibreglass skeleton with Carbon, Kevlar and Basalt (Lava) layers. The Basalt content has been increased to create an even greater strength and stiffness - the CB2 shape offers great stick "turnover" and help with flicking. In addition to this, the super stiff construction gives fantastic hitting power. A further specific characteristic that is revolutionary, is the use of an impregnated resin.

Some composite materials are brittle in their natural form. To protect these and increase the durability of M-TEK sticks, the resins used have been mixed with Polyethylene particles. This creates a rubberised resin. Whilst it cannot be felt, this rubberised top layer gives some impact protection to the materials within the stick. The impregnated resin also has a texture similar to a worn wooden stick. It creates a surface texture allows water to be displaced, allowing direct contact between stick and ball on wet surface and thus more control.

Certain players enjoy hitting the ball. Certain positions dictate a greater need for hitting! The performance characteristic of the Storm is that it answers the specific need of such a player. We have adjusted the balance point of the stick to create a degree of head weighting. With 19mm bend and an enhanced reverse stick-hitting area, the Storm delivers superb energy transfer and hitting power. Constructed with a fibreglass skeleton, together with Carbon, Kevlar and Basalt, the Storm has specific strengthening in areas associated with hitting. Also available in heavy weight, the Storm is perfect for the short corner striker, the big hitting full back, or the player who just likes to have more striking in their game!

Advanced material technologies and the success of the Burn and Oxide models have lead to the primary performance characteristic of the Air. We have utilised the strengths of a fibreglass skeleton, with Carbon, Kevlar and Basalt overlays, to create a high specification composite stick with good performance levels and durability. the strength of the materials and their specific placements, similar to the process used in the manufacture of racing car bodies, enables us to offer the Air in superlight as well as light and medium.

The CB2 shaft shape of the stick offers great stick "turnover"whilst the 25mm bend also enhances drag flicking.

Material innovations have enabled us to create the Ocean, the first adult level composite with ZERO Carbon. In this environmentally friendly world the Ocean represents a true innovation, with Carbon being replaced by a totally new material. Basalt rock exists at the bottom of the Caspian Sea and is then imported by our exclusive manufacturing facility. The Basalt Rock is melted at very high temperature and fibres are drawn from this molten lava and spun to create the material from which Basalt layers are formed. Basalt is as strong as carbon but is much easier to handle. It represents a more "friendly" material to the factory workers and gives even better performance characteristics than Carbon. The Ocean has a fibreglass skeleton overlaid with Basalt and Kevlar to create great performance characteristics, with extra reinforcement applied at specific pressure points.
