About the Ping S55

The S55 was the last of Ping's counting-down S series and the first of them to move off the long-running S57/S56 loft chart: the 7-iron is 33 degrees rather than 34.25, and the 6- and 8-irons move to round numbers, giving even four-degree gaps from the 4-iron down. Offset is cut slightly against the S56, to 0.09 inches at the 7-iron, and a tungsten toe weight stabilises the head. The set runs 3-iron through pitching wedge at D1 swing weight. Ping's colour-code (dot) system sets lie angle relative to standard: gold 4 flat, brown 3 flat, orange 2 flat, red 1 flat, BLACK standard, blue 1 upright, green 2 upright, white 3 upright, silver 4 upright, maroon 5 upright. The lies below are the BLACK (standard) lies.

Frequently asked questions

What is the loft of a Ping S55 7-iron?

The Ping S55 7-iron has a loft of 33 degrees, a standard (black dot) lie of 62.25 degrees and a steel-shaft length of 36.75 inches.

When were Ping S55 irons made?

The S55 was introduced in 2013, following the S56. It was the last model in Ping's S series — no S54 followed, and the tour-players role passed to the iBlade in 2016.

What is the difference between the Ping S56 and S55?

The S55 is 1.25 degrees stronger at the 7-iron (33 against 34.25) and a degree or more stronger through the mid and short irons, with slightly less offset at the 3-iron. Lies and lengths are unchanged.

How much offset does the Ping S55 have?

0.17 inches at the 3-iron, 0.09 at the 7-iron and 0.03 at the pitching wedge.

Where it sits in the lineup

Introduced in 2013, the Ping S55 is a current players set in the Ping range, with no replacement announced. It replaced the Ping S56. New sets are built to the standard lofts, lies and lengths in the chart above, though a fitting can move any of them — so confirm the numbers on the order sheet. Used sets appear on eBay, 2nd Swing and Golf Avenue, and should be measured against this chart before buying.

Data compiled from:

Ping's own S55 product page, Specifications tab (ping.com, archived 2014) — supplied every loft, length, offset, lie, bounce and swing weight above, plus the CFS / Z-Z65 / TFC 189I shaft table and the note that lie is based on the black colour code at standard length.
qsponge.com 'What is loft angle of Ping S55 Irons?' spec table — independently reproduces the same eight rows and agrees with the Ping chart on every value.
golflink.com 'PING Irons by Year' — the S55 is dated 2013, following the S56 of 2010.
Note: year_discontinued is null. Ping did not replace the S55 with another S-series iron; the line ended and the iBlade of 2016 took over the tour-players slot, so no successor is recorded.
