⚡ At a Glance
- • Pressure Distribution: Increases contact surface to spread clamping force across the racket head
- • Best for: Club players, coaches and casual stringers who restring rackets frequently
- • Not ideal for: Users with fully automated electronic stringing machines that use custom adapters
Small protectors sit at the racket hook positions to increase contact area and reduce concentrated stress. Compatible with most manual threading machines and supplied as a pack of two.
Protects frame from tension damage - with increased contact surface
A larger contact area spreads the clamping force from the stringing machine across more of the head frame, lowering peak stress at a single point. The protective piece sits at the upper and lower hook positions where tension concentrates during stringing.
Reduced risk of cracks or frame failure when working at higher string tensions, helping to preserve racket integrity over repeated restringing sessions.
Keeps strings aligned for neater threading - with a wire groove design
A moulded groove guides the string through the protector so the line stays seated during mounting and tensioning. The groove also reduces lateral movement of the string under pressure.
Faster, cleaner stringing with fewer adjustments, so stringers can complete jobs more efficiently and with better final alignment.
Fits most manual machines - with compact, standardised sizing
Compact dimensions allow placement at the standard hook positions inside the racket head frame and compatibility with many manual threading machine setups. The pack contains two protectors for upper and lower placement.
A practical add-on for home, club or workshop stringing rigs, offering straightforward installation without the need for specialised adapters.
