Poly Polar is the softest/most comfortable
co-poly string currently available and it comes in an ultra cool blue
color. It is an ideal option for frequent string breakers who do not
want to experience the harsh feel associated with poly and co-poly
strings.
Construction: A German Engineered and produced co-poly string. Monofilament polyester with minute metallic particles.
Advantage:Poly Polar
has the best elasticity of all polyester strings currently on the
market today, producing a softer playing feel without compromising
durability.
Gauges: 16 (1.30mm) & 17 (1.25mm)
Length: 660'
Color: Blue
Why we carry this string:
Simply because it is the best value co-poly string we have found.
Comfort, durability and solid tension maintenance make this string a
solid all-around performer.
Tension Loss Measurements:
There have been reports of earlier versions of this string losing
tension quickly. Our playtests reveal different data. In measuring the
Dynamic Tension (DT) immediately after stringing in our Yonex RD ti 80
we came up with a measurement of DT = 38 and the string tension was
showing at 61. We measure tension using an ERT 700 Tennis Computer.
The next day (24 hours) after stringing the DT dropped to 37 with a
string tension reading of 59. An overnight drop in tension of
approximately 3%. (An impressive result for any string, but surprisngly
impressive for this poly that had previously been tabbed by some as a
tension losing string.)
5 days later the readings, after additional court time, the readings
remained constant.
13 days after stringing the readings dropped again. This time the DT
was showing as 35 with a string tension reading of 57. This represents
a drop in tension of approximately 7 - 8%. 18 days after the original
stringing the readings remained with a DT of 35 and string tension
reading of 57. IMPRESSIVE!!!
