TaylorMade Shaft Adapter Compatibility

[Jackal66]

I was looking at this shaft online. It is a Taylormade adapter, but the seller is unsure which one.

I'm new to Taylormade.

Is this the later model M type?

[Jackal66]

 

[Stuart_G]

@Jackal66 Yes, that is a 2nd generation (current design) adapter.

BUMP

I have some problem finding the correct adapter for my RBZ head, It's a Tour issue head.

I have tried several adapters, but all of them seems to be too wide. Attaching images of the current adapter (should this be the correct one?), the head with the adapter in. Would be so thankful if someone could post a link to eBay for one adapter that should be compatible with the head.

For the original RBZ, that you have, you need the Red or Green adapters and make sure they are for drivers or woods, not hybrids.

You need one of these two.

And it's not that they are too wide, the number of teeth on the cog at the very tip is not correct.

Awesome thanks for that! Looking forward to releases this beast!

Hey guys so it looks like the consensus is the R1 adapter (TM0019) can be used on the M4 but according to Golfworks you cannot use the TM0019 on the M4.

I compared the M4 adapter (TM0023) to the R1 adapter and they look nearly identical. The R1 shaft screws onto the M4 head and it clicks.

Can someone who actually used the R1 adapter on the m3/m4/m5/m6 confirm that this is okay?

 

[Stuart_G]

Golfworks (or whomever answered the question) is wrong. You can use it and it will work with no real problems. The only issue is that the loft labels on the R1 adapter will not be correct, which could cause confusion. Those labels assume you have a 10* head (the only loft the R1 was made with). You have to do your own math to figure out what the adjustment positions actually do for your particular head.

[Newbiegolf7]

Great, thank you for the confirmation!

Hi

 

Can anyone tell what adapter is this. Can't find anything that matches it 100%

...

[Stuart_G]

It's one of the variants of the TM 2nd gen .335" adapter that's +/- 1.5*.

Also first used in the RBZ stage 2 driver when custom ordered with any .335" tipped shaft. Or stock in the RBZ stage 2 TP driver.

It was also available to buy from varous aftermarket sources.

 

 

[MaxForestHill]

Hi, thanks for the info. So would this work with all the newer "M" drivers and fairways?

[Stuart_G]

Yes. Will work with every TM adjustable driver/fairway head including and after the R1 and RBZ stage 2

[Mrlang]

Does anyone know if an m4 driver adapter will work in a gapr?

[Stuart_G]

No. The GAPR/Rescue adapters are not compatible with the driver/fairway adapters due to the larger tip size they need to support.

I have a TaylorMade M6 driver. I was looking to buy a shaft with a adaptor that is compatible with the R9 and R11 driver. If I purchased this would it fit my M6 driver?

No.   To be compatible with the M series it would have to be for a R1, RBZ stage 2 or later model.      R9's, r11, r11s, and RBZ used the first gen adapter design.

I have a RBZ stage 2 driver am I right in thinking this is a .350tip? and will fit any other driver TM driver from a later year including SIM? Are all the TM drivers a .350 tip or could some be .335? 

 

Thanks in advance.

TM heads that use adapters don't care what size the tip is.  They had both .350 and .335 adapters that would work in any head.   So basically you just need to get the right adapter for whatever shaft you want to use.   They are cheap so it's much easier to buy a new adapter than to try to reuse any existing adapter.

 

But to answer the question - most stock shafts back then (not now) were .350 and most "Tour or "TP" labeled shafts or custom shaft upgrades were .335.

Where can I find the correct tip adapter for the "Original One" driver? Will the shaft/tip adapter from my R15 fit my "Original One" driver head?

Any and All adjustable hosel drivers/fairways released in 2013 or later use the same adapter design and are compatible.

 

You can find them to buy in a variety of places.  Golfworks and Billy Bob's golf are my preferred sources but lots of others to choose from.

Sorry, but that's already been answered several times in this thread - including the first response on the first page.

I could not find it in here.  Will an M1 driver adaptor fit a new Sim 2 driver head?

[jdw2920]
