Thanks to the relentlessness of our research and development team, we found yet another way to formulate quite possibly the most explosive benchmark balls in recent history. Engineered to create more overall torque and pure projectile power than all the low RG symmetrical ball before it, the TNT is here to blow up racks and take names. From the Torque Sphere Technology inside the Torpex Core to the introduction of the eTrax™ PLUS solid coverstock, it’s a high probability this ball will have your opponent’s taking cover and calling the bomb squad for help.
TORPEX™ CORE
By placing the TORQUE SPHERE just above the inner equator of the TORPEX Core, we found that not only did it create the lowest RG symmetrical Roto Grip part ever, but it also created a higher differential which translates to more overall motion and less deflection through the pins.

TNT by Roto Grip Rick
Roto Grip TNT My specs: Ball speed 15+, Rev rate 425, PAP 4 and up 13/16 Layout: 70 x 5 ½ x 55 – surface at 2000-grit Abralon The latest Roto Grip release has everyone blowing up the racks of pins with it. Using an idea from an earlier core design, Roto Grip R&D crew came up with the Torpex core. Which added a sphere just above the equator of the core, which in short terms allows less deflection when going through the pins. Using a revised version of e-Trax Plus coverstock has a solid version of it, the OG e-Trax Plus coverstock was a pearl version on the Roto Grip RST-X2, which is more forgiving no matter how you roll the ball, or how you drill it. For pro shop crews its very driller friendly. Great all-round solid reactive coverstock. While running Storm Matchmaker events that included the TNT, I noticed that the TNTs that are in the set started rolling and hitting better after the covers got line shine on them. I usually will touch up the coverstocks on the solid reactive balls in the Matchmaker sets, but I left the TNTs alone seeing how they started to roll better over time. While using my personal TNT, the same thing occurred, once the cover got lane shine on it, the ball was pure MONEY! My long practice session that I used the TNT, DNA, and iQ Ruby, it was quite surprising that the TNT helped up as the lanes transitioned during the session. I videotaped early and late in the session with the TNT and with just minor feet and angle adjustments, the TNT kept striking and striking. Best solid reactive I have used in years at a center that has SPL. Could never get the solid covers to recover enough over the course of the league or tournaments at that center. They would great on fresh, but would sizzle out after a few games, but the TNT I was able to use throughout the whole league night and also tournament settings.

TNT
TNT Ball Specs Cover Stock: eTrax Plus Solid Reactive Finish: 2000 Grit Abralon Color: Amber, Fire, Blaze Orange Core: Torpex Core RG: 2.47 Differential: 0.052 Review The HP3 TNT is a fiery benchmark BOOM!! Its here to blow up racks. Roto Grips introduction on the eTrax Plus solid reactive cover wrapped around the Torpex symmetric core makes for one of the most aggressive benchmark balls. The TNT has an RG of 2.47 and differential of 0.052, which makes it read the midlane earlier than the idol series with same backend and hitting power. This ball is great on medium oil patterns and it able to perform at a high level in the track area and in to the fourth arrow without any loss of ball reaction and pin carry. Put your favorite pin up layout on the TNT and you will not be disappointed. This ball is a must have for league and tournament bowlers. Now available for order at your local pro shop!
