Loft progression
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?

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.
Finding a used set
The Ping S55 ran from 2013 to 2016 and is no longer in production, so the used market is the only source. Search the used listings on eBay, and check the loft and lie against the chart above before buying — sets this age have often been bent from standard.
- 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.
- Status check, 29 September 2026: year_discontinued is 2016. The iBlade, unveiled on 1 August 2016, replaced the S55 (golfmonthly.com).
