About the Tour Edge Hot Launch Max
The Hot Launch Max is the cavity-back iron in the Hot Launch Max series that replaced Tour Edge's 525 line in February 2026, sold alongside the hollow-bodied Max D. It keeps the deep undercut cavity and VIBRCOR insert of the E525 it follows, with the same lies and lengths, but the lofts are weaker through most of the set: 29 degrees at the 7-iron against 27.5, and 43 at the pitching wedge against 42. The set runs 4-iron to AW, in right and left hand, with a graphite or a steel stock shaft.
Stock shafts
- Aldila Ascent — graphite · 55-59 g · flexes: A, R, S
- KBS Max MT 85 — steel · 85 g · flexes: R, S

It replaced the Tour Edge Hot Launch E525. 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.

Offsets are published in millimetres and converted to inches here. The table gives one length column and does not say whether it is the steel or the graphite build.
