El bate Tater® X4 PRO Pine Tar con mango de carbón es un bate de dos tonos X4 con acabado de pino. El barril captura el aspecto de pino brea, sellado en el arce, sin olor ni suciedad. El mango adquiere un color carbón oscuro para una estética limpia de dos tonos. Hecho a mano en Cheshire, CT y listo para enviar.

El bate de pino X4 con acabado de mango de carbón

Este es el perfil de giro X4 en el estilo visual de pino brea característico de Tater Baseball®. El barril lleva el aspecto de pino brea, sellado, no aplicado en la superficie, para que no se transfiera a tus guantes o equipo. El acabado del mango de carbón equilibra el aspecto con un agarre oscuro. Contraste el barril y se ve profesional en el estante.

Por qué pino brea sin la pino brea real

Los jugadores de béisbol sabemos por experiencia que el aspecto de pino brea es genial. Pero la pino brea real tiene sus inconvenientes. Puede arruinar el resto de tu equipo o de otros bates. Guardarlo en tu bolsa, apoyarlo en tu hombro o agarrarlo con guantes de bateo extiende la brea por todas partes. No te darás cuenta hasta que esté en todo. La versión Tater® está sellada en la madera: obtienes el aspecto sin la limpieza.

Tater™ vs Other Brands
There's a reason Pros are switching to swing Tater™
Most wood bats are made for retail shelves — lower-grade lumber, bulk machining, inconsistent pop. The Tater™ Wood Bat is hand-split, hand-finished, and bone-rubbed to MLB standards.
✓ Higher density wood lasts longer and provides better "pop" off the barrel.
✓ Ink dot tested to prove our bats meet professional standards.
✓ Hand-split wood follows the natural grain, making bats stronger, more durable, and less likely to break.
✓ Bone rubbing compresses the wood fibers, making the bat harder, improving durability, and increasing ball exit speeds.

A TRADITIONAL LOOK

WITH A MODERN APPROACH

We invented this look to fill the void for the modern ballplayer. Our Pine Tar bats are one of our top sellers made from with a flame tempered neck to give it that classic pine tar look without all the mess.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the two-tone Charcoal Handle / Pine Tar Barrel finish?
The two-tone finish flips the colors on a traditional pine tar look — instead of the pine tar running down the handle, the barrel carries the sealed pine tar finish while the handle goes dark charcoal. The result is a clean two-tone aesthetic that reads pro on the rack. The pine tar finish is sealed into the wood, not surface-applied, so it doesn't transfer to your gloves or gear.
Is this built on the same X4 PRO turn?
Yes — the bat is built on our standard X4 PRO turn profile in maple. Same balanced feel, same RA13-inspired shape, same MLB-grade billets. The only difference is the finish.
How fast does this ship?
This is a stock model — ships the next business day from our shop in Cheshire, CT. No custom build queue.
What size wood bat should I order?
Length ranges from 30"–34". Drop weight (length-to-weight ratio) ranges from -3 to +2. Drop weight is the difference between bat length in inches and bat weight in ounces — a -3 drop means a 34" bat weighs 31 oz. Most adult hitters use 32"–34" at a -2 or -3 drop. Most BBCOR-certified leagues (high school, NCAA) require -3. For a personalized recommendation by height, weight, and league, use our Wood Bat Size Chart at /pages/wood-bat-size-chart.
What types of wood are Tater bats made from?
Hard maple and yellow birch — both MLB-grade. Maple has been the pro standard for over 20 years: densest, hardest hitting surface, biggest pop on clean contact, but a smaller sweet spot and less forgiveness on mis-hits. Birch sits between maple and ash — similar density to maple with more flex on impact, which makes it more forgiving on mis-hits and a smart starting point for hitters transitioning from metal to wood. Read the full breakdown in our Maple vs Birch vs Ash guide at /blogs/the-lumber-yard/differences-between-maple-birch-and-ash-bats.
Do you offer discounts for team or bulk orders?
Yes — team and bulk pricing is available, typically starting at 12 bats. Contact our team sales desk with your spec, roster size, and timing through /pages/contact-us and we'll send a custom quote within one business day. The more bats in the order, the better the per-unit pricing scales.
Are Tater bats suitable for professional play?
Yes. Tater Baseball is an MLB-supplier wood bat company — our bats are swung by professional players at the highest level of the game. There is no separate "consumer-grade" production line. The same MLB-grade billets, the same hand-finishing process, and the same QA standards apply to every retail bat we ship as to the bats we cut for pro hitters.
What is the warranty on Tater wood bats?
30-day limited warranty on structural cracking under normal field use. To qualify, the bat must be a 2021 model year or later, you must be the original purchaser with proof of purchase from an authorized Tater dealer, and you must have followed our hitting guidelines (no cage-style dimpled balls, no storage in extreme heat or cold like a car trunk, no excessive moisture exposure). Full warranty terms and care guidelines at /pages/tater-wooden-bat-warranty.
Why are wood bats cupped at the end?
Cupping is a small concave dish drilled into the end of the barrel. It removes a few grams of mass from the very tip, which shifts the bat's balance point slightly toward the hands and makes the swing feel quicker through the zone. Tater hand-cups each bat, and our process allows for variable cup depths to dial in feel without compromising end-cap strength — which actually reduces the risk of chips and cracks on inside pitches.
What is the black dot on the handle?
Every Tater maple and birch bat carries an ink dot near the handle as proof of MLB-grade slope-of-grain certification. The ink dot's bleed pattern reveals whether the wood grain runs cleanly along the bat's long axis — a tight bleed means safe, MLB-spec slope; a fast bleed means rejected billet. The dot is the visible proof every bat passed inspection before leaving our shop.

Customer video review of Tater-X4 PRO (Charcoal Handle Pine Tar Barrel)

It’s my first time picking up a bat in a while and I love how this one feels! I was curious about this brand because I got my hands on one of them off of one of the MiLB players in my hometown, unfortunately that one broke in game but I was curious and I wanted one for myself. I’m satisfied with it, definitely recommend!

Customer video review of Tater-X4 PRO (Charcoal Handle Pine Tar Barrel)

Your customer support is amazing. After my son had a crack in his bat after first swing, Justin was quick to help get a replacement and put new grip tape on it. First swing of the bat, and my son hit this home run. Love Tater bats

Tater-X4 PRO (Charcoal Handle Pine Tar Barrel)

My son loves this bat. This is second one he got. The first one cracked during a college game. He wanted the same bat so we went and got a new one.

Lily J. 4/5 Verified

Tater-X4 PRO (Charcoal Handle Pine Tar Barrel)

My son has not used the bat yet. However, looks great and feel like a more balanced wood bat. The balanced feel is what he was looking for. He cannot wait to use it in the cage and on the field.
