Abstract (en)

A racket string is provided comprising a string body having an outer coating which is formed from a dispersion of particles of fluororesin having an average diameter of substantially less than 20 microns in a suitable dispersing medium. Suitably the fluororesin is a fluorinated ethylene resin, especially a tetrafluoroethylene resin. Such a resin preferably has an average particle diameter in the range of from 0.1 to 10 microns, especially of 0.3 microns. Such a racket string has been found to withstand high tensions present during stringing and also, when incorporated into a racket, wear of the string due to hitting and due to adherence of sand and dust, etc. during play.
