Old Hickory RA13 Steel Pressed Maple Baseball Bat
The Old Hickory RA13 Steel Pressed Maple Baseball Bat combines professional-inspired design, premium rock maple construction and Old Hickory's innovative Steel Pressed finish to deliver an excellent combination of balance, power and bat control.
Inspired by the bat profile used by MLB superstar Ronald Acuña Jr., the RA13 features an extended medium barrel that provides a generous hitting area, making it an excellent choice for players who want a substantial sweet spot without sacrificing swing balance.
The medium handle transitions smoothly into a flared knob, creating a comfortable grip and allowing hitters to maintain control throughout their swing.
Steel Pressed Maple Construction
One of the standout features of this bat is Old Hickory's proprietary Steel Pressed finish.
This process uses cold, high-pressure steel to compress and compact the surface grain of the maple, creating a harder, denser hitting surface.
The treatment is designed to improve surface durability while maintaining the firm, responsive feel that makes maple a popular choice among professional baseball players.
RA13 Barrel Profile – Balance and Power
The RA13 features a distinctive combination of a medium barrel, medium handle and flared knob.
Its extended barrel profile provides a generous hitting area, while the balanced weight distribution allows hitters to maintain control through the hitting zone.
This makes the RA13 an appealing option for both contact hitters and power hitters who prefer a traditional wood bat with a substantial barrel and manageable swing weight.
