New Bettinardi HLX 6.0 Molten Copper Wedges Arrive For 2026 (Reviewed)

Bettinardi HLX 6.0 Molten Copper Wedges Review

Bettinardi HLX 6.0 Molten Copper wedges are a new limited-run finish for 2026, adding a striking patina-ready look to the already impressive 6.0 wedge line.

The Molten Copper model keeps all the performance benefits of the standard HLX 6.0 – including tighter groove spacing and a raised centre of gravity for lower launch – but wraps them in a copper PVD finish that evolves over time.

Bettinardi have paired a copper-toned head with a copper-plated scoring face that is designed to patina uniquely for every golfer, creating a one‑of‑a‑kind appearance without sacrificing spin or control.

The new wedges are an extension to the existing HLX 6.0 Chrome and Graphite options and sit perfectly alongside Bettinardi’s CB24 and MB24 irons in a premium bag setup.

Bettinardi HLX 6.0 Molten Copper Wedges Specs & Design

The HLX 6.0 Molten Copper model is built on the same 1020 forged carbon steel design as the standard 6.0 range, delivering the soft, responsive feel and premium feedback that have been a hallmark of Bettinardi’s wedges

The head is forged from soft carbon steel and features the same refined shaping introduced in the 6.0 line, including a thinner topline at address for a more compact, players’ look behind the ball.

Bettinardi have retained the reduced head weight of the HLX 6.0, which is 2 grams lighter than the previous 5.0 model for improved overall balance and helping the wedge feel more connected throughout the swing.

In this version, the Molten Copper PVD finish gives the wedges a rich copper tone across the head and is paired with a copper-plated scoring face.

This finish is designed to naturally patina through play, meaning the colour will darken and soften as the wedge is used, leaving each club with its own unique, weathered look over time while still resisting corrosion.

The wedges use the same High Helix Cut Grooves as the standard 6.0 with tighter spacing and more groove edges promoting increased friction at impact for more spin and a slightly lower, more controlled launch trajectory.

A raised centre of gravity has been engineered into the head via the topline, hosel and back-flange shaping to produce a lower flight with more stopping power – ideal for controlling distance and holding firm greens.

The Molten Copper wedges are offered with the same grind options as the standard HLX 6.0 line: C Grind and RJ Grind.

C Grind has a classic, slightly narrower sole suited to golfers who like to play more straightforward, square‑faced shots and prefer versatility on tighter lies with reduced effective bounce.

RJ Grind has a higher‑bounce, more versatile option with extra heel, toe and trailing‑edge relief, ideal for opening the face, playing from sand or rough and handling a wider range of turf conditions.

Bettinardi refined the RJ Grind for the 6.0 generation to add more heel and toe relief, improving turf interaction and forgiveness compared to the HLX 5.0.

The Molten Copper wedges mirror the core HLX 6.0 lofts, running from 48 degrees through to 60 degrees.

Bettinardi HLX 6.0 Molten Copper Wedges Review: Are they any good?

The standard HLX 6.0 wedges have already been well received for their blend of spin control and lower, more penetrating ball flight, and the Molten Copper version adds a layer of visual appeal without affecting the performance.

On full shots, the tighter High Helix Cut groove pattern and raised CG combine to produce that flatter, more controlled trajectory that better players prefer, with plenty of stopping power into firm greens.

Around the greens, both C and RJ grinds offer excellent turf interaction, with the RJ Grind in particular providing the versatility to hit open‑face pitches, bunker shots and higher‑flighted spinners.

The Molten Copper version and PVD head standard out with a the copper‑plated face offering a distinctive, almost bespoke look that evolves as the wedge patinas without compromising on glare management or performance.
