FAQs

What is the recommended tension range?

Refer to your racket's specifications for the recommended tension range. Typically, it's between 50-65 lbs.

How often should I restring?

Restring when the strings break, lose tension, or show significant wear. Frequent players may need to restring every few weeks.

What is the difference between 17 gauge and 16 gauge?

17 gauge (1.25mm) is slightly thinner than 16 gauge, which offers enhanced feel and control.

Is this string suitable for beginners?

Yes, but beginners may find the added spin a little too aggressive. They might benefit from a more durable string.

How does the pentagonal shape impact play?

The pentagonal shape grips the ball better, which allows for increased spin and control.

What is the advantage of UHMW material?

UHMW creates a low-friction surface for sharp snapback, which contributes to greater spin.

Troubleshooting

String breaks prematurely.

Check your string tension. Consider a slightly lower tension or a more durable string if breaks persist.

Loss of tension.

This is normal, but the frequency depends on playing style. Consider restringing more frequently.

Feel is different than expected.

Adjust your string tension and consider trying a different gauge.
