Butterfly Dignics 05 incorporates the revolutionary Spring Sponge X – an upgraded version of Spring Sponge with improved elasticity. The 40° hard sponge produces a strong catapult effect, allowing the ball to rebound explosively off the rubber. This results in high speed (rated 86) and exceptional energy transfer, especially during topspin rallies and counterloops. Combined with a specially developed tacky surface, which enhances the feeling of ball “grip,” Dignics 05 offers excellent precision and control, even at high speeds and with heavy spin. The unique pimple structure (Code No. 05) is optimized for maximum spin (rated 85), making it ideal for players who rely on heavy topspin and deceptive trajectories.

Designed for the modern attacking player where spin and speed are key, Dignics 05 delivers a speed rating of 86, enabling explosive forehand and backhand loops, aggressive drives, and fast counterattacks that pressure the opponent and reduce their reaction time. Its high spin rating ensures that the ball carries strong rotation, making it especially effective for spinny loops, serves, and countering opponents' spin. The trajectory is rated at 88 – high and curved – helping shots remain stable and accurate, even from mid-distance play. The hard sponge and tacky topsheet also provide excellent passive control, aiding in blocking and serve receives, making Dignics 05 highly versatile for both offense and controlled defense.

One standout feature of Dignics 05 is its durability. The combination of the hard Spring Sponge X and the enhanced topsheet ensures high resistance to wear, maintaining elasticity and performance longer than most other high-end rubbers, including the Tenergy series. The grippy surface, designed for generating spin, is scratch-resistant and retains its characteristics even after intense training or match play. This durability makes Dignics 05 a cost-effective choice for players looking for a long-lasting rubber that performs consistently over time.

Butterfly Dignics 05 is a high-tension inverted rubber with a hard 40° Spring Sponge X, delivering a well-balanced mix of speed, spin, and control. Its specially engineered tacky topsheet enables intense spin generation, while the sponge’s elasticity adds dynamic rebound for offensive play. Available in two sponge thicknesses:

• 2.1 mm: Maximum speed and power – ideal for aggressive topspin attackers

• 1.9 mm: Balanced speed and control – suitable for all-round styles with precise shot-making

The rubber comes in red and black, fully compliant with ITTF regulations. Due to the delicate topsheet, it’s recommended to apply a protective film after play to prevent damage. For proper application, Butterfly recommends Free Chack glue for strong adhesion to the blade.

Dignics 05 is built for players who focus on modern offensive play, where spin and speed are crucial. Its tacky surface and firm sponge make it easy to generate powerful loops, whether you're close to the table or at mid-distance. It's also excellent for counterlooping, as the high passive control lets players handle heavy spin with ease through blocking or counter-topspinning. Dignics 05 is the ideal rubber for players looking to refine their technique, add more spin and precision to their shots, and confidently handle both active and passive phases of the game.

This rubber pairs best with blades that amplify its speed and spin potential, such as:

• Butterfly Timo Boll ALC – enhances power and stability for topspin

• Viscaria – a balanced feel for controlled aggression

• Innerforce Layer ALC – emphasizes control for an all-round game

• Zhang Jike Super ZLC – extreme speed and precision

These combinations maximize Dignics 05's capabilities and offer players a competitive edge.

Made in Japan, Butterfly Dignics 05 meets the highest standards of quality and is approved by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) for official play. It's tailored for advanced players seeking to combine explosive spin, speed, and surgical precision. Especially suited for loop-based play near or mid-distance from the table, this rubber supports powerful topspins, sharp counters, and controlled blocks. Dignics 05 also excels in passive game control, including serve returns, making it a trusted choice for elite players like Timo Boll, who uses it on his backhand. It allows for adaptive play, ensuring confidence and stability with every shot.
