# Pro Shield NOX

Pickleball · Shield

RR Score 67 out of 100, RR Score RR Score Updated on 10/05/2026

The NOX Pro Shield is a standard-shape pickleball paddle with a 3K carbon face. It has a 16 mm core thickness, 16 x 8 in (length x width), a weight of 7.8-8.2 oz (221-233 g), a 4.37 in handle and a 4.13 in grip circumference. The 16 mm structure uses the Enhanced Comfort Core, which joins medium-density honeycomb with an injected foam edge to balance control and precision. The short 4.37 in handle makes the grip compact and reactive. The Exclusive Spin surface is USAP approved and the Custom Grip absorbs 29% of vibrations.

**The RR Score is not yet a precise figure.** It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
