PING i540 Irons

The PING i540 takes the players’ distance iron concept and dials it up to a whole new level. Designed for the mid-to-low handicapper who wants a clean, compact look at address without sacrificing distance, the i540 features a maraging-steel face that’s 9% thinner than the i530 — creating metal-wood-like flex that delivers serious ball-speed gains and a higher launch. An average of 24 grams of tungsten weighting in the 4- through 7-irons keeps the CG low for effortless height, and a clever internal “air bag” behind the face enhances sound and feel without restricting that all-important face flex. It earned a Silver medal on Golf Digest’s 2026 Hot List and a Top 5 in Forgiveness among low-handicap testers. 

Features

• 9% Thinner Maraging-Steel Face: Creates metal-wood-like flex for noticeably faster ball speeds and a higher launch angle, putting real distance gains in the hands of better players. 
• Internal Air Bag Technology: An air bag positioned directly behind the center of the face enhances sound and feel at impact without restricting face flex — a beautiful blend of performance and feedback. 
• 24g Average Tungsten Weighting: Positioned along the sole in the 4- through 7-irons to lower CG and deliver a higher launch angle, even on off-center strikes. 
• Internal Beam Structure: Adds structural support inside the hollow body while assisting sound and feel, giving you that players’ iron feedback with distance iron results. 
• Clean, Compact Profile: A thin topline and smooth back give these irons a modern, sleek look that inspires confidence at address — it looks like a players’ iron but hits like a distance machine. 
• Specs: 7-iron: 29° loft; PW: 42° loft.
