The SB26 Model wood baseball bat was designed for hitters having trouble getting thru the hitting zone. You have to get there before you find yourself on that stranded island they call Strike Three. The barrel is 2-3/8" and 7/8' handle with a traditional knob. The bat is known for its striking accuracy. You will also hit for average and have some pop with its whip through the zone.

Proper Bat Care Guidelines
The Wood Bat Factory carries only high-performance wood bats. The lifespan of these high-performance products depends on the amount of use and care given to each bat. We suggest the following for proper care and use:
• Bats are used with leather covered baseballs and softballs only. Using weighted or non-traditional baseballs or softballs can and will damage certain bats voiding any warranty.
• Bats should be for personal use only. Bats used by multiple participants can and will decrease the lifespan of the bat.
• Bats should not be used in weather resulting in temperatures below 60°F (15°C). Temperatures below this range make balls harder than normal and therefore can increase damage to bats.
• Throwing of bats or hitting of bats against objects such as cleats, rocks, or anything besides leather covered balls will damage bats and decrease its lifespan. This can also cause premature damage to the bat resulting in an increase in damage potential as well as voiding the warranty.
• To clean your bats, use water and mild soap. Do not use any type of chemicals for cleaning as they can damage the finish, cosmetics, and integrity of certain components.
The Wood Bat Factory Warranty does not cover:
• Bats that have been abused, altered, or mistreated due to improper care, accidents, misuse, overuse or negligence
• Bats that have been used in commercial batting cages
• Bats that have been used in temperatures below 60°F(15°C)
• Bats not purchased from The Wood Bat Factory
• Bats not submitted by the original purchaser
• Clearance Bats, BLEM Bats, BP Bats or Cage Bats
• Bats that have been hit by objects other than leather covered baseballs such as cleats and/or rocks. If marks on bats submitted match that of cleats and/or rocks, warranty will be void and will be considered “abused”
• Grips, decals, or stickers
Note: Our warranty is not transferable and does not cover grips, abuse, misuse, bats used in commercial cages, altered bats or any bat that has been damaged due to improper care, accidents, misuse, overuse or negligence.
Requirement of Tender: As a condition of any warranty claim, the bat and a valid receipt from The Wood Bat Factory are tendered to The Wood Bat Factory at the address listed below. Warranties will not be honored unless the bat and receipt are tendered. All products returned under warranty will be reviewed by our qualified staff. If it is determined that your bat is covered under warranty, The Wood Bat Factory will send you a replacement bat of the same brand, model, size, and drop weight. We reserve the right to perform testing to determine if the bat meets warranty requirements and/or to refuse warranty service to any person who, in the judgment of The Wood Bat Factory, abuses the product and/or warranty policy. The Wood Bat Factory also reserves the right to substitute a similar product as a replacement, if necessary.
