Dunlop strings

Discover the full range of Dunlop strings

Dunlop offers a wide selection of tennis strings for every type of player. All strings in this category are exclusive to Dunlop and come in 12-meter sets or 200-meter reels. The range includes the Dunlop Explosive, Black Widow, Iconic All, Iconic Touch, and D Tac Synthetic Gut. Various models are available in different gauges, allowing you to find the right balance between feel, control, and durability. Whether you're looking for more power or seeking comfort, the Dunlop collection always has a suitable string.

Each string has its own strengths. The Iconic Touch focuses on comfort and damping. Black Widow offers added grip and spin. Explosive excels in power and resilience. Iconic All provides a good balance between control and playability. D Tac Synthetic Gut is an accessible option for players who want to stay flexible without compromising on quality. Choosing a reel instead of individual sets lets you restring multiple rackets at a better price. This is ideal if you play regularly.

A Dunlop string for every type of player

The Dunlop Iconic Touch is designed for players who value comfort and a soft feel. This string is ideal if you have sensitive arms. Do you play with high intensity and need a string that lasts? Then the Dunlop Explosive or Black Widow offers extra strength and durability. Players who love spin will appreciate the Black Widow thanks to its textured surface. It allows for extra spin potential.

The Iconic All is perfect if you're looking for versatility and control. A true all-round string, suitable for both recreational and competitive players. The D Tac Synthetic Gut is especially popular among players who want a classic, all-round string with enough resilience and feel. The best string always depends on your playing style, level, and personal preference. That’s why we recommend considering what’s most important in your game: spin, power, comfort, or durability.

Choose the right string type: mono, multi or synthetic gut

Dunlop offers different types of strings, each providing a unique playing feel. Monofilament strings, like the Dunlop Explosive, are made of a single solid core. They are designed for players who value power and durability. They retain tension longer and need less frequent replacing, making them ideal for frequent players.

Are you looking for comfort and a softer feel? Then multifilament strings like the Iconic Touch and Iconic All are a better choice. These strings consist of multiple fibers and mimic the characteristics of natural gut. This makes them appealing for players with arm issues. The D Tac Synthetic Gut is a synthetic string with a solid core and simple construction. It’s intended as an all-round option for players who value flexibility and affordability.

Practical: string gauge, sets and reels

All Dunlop strings are available in different gauges, usually between 1.25 mm and 1.35 mm. Thicker strings generally last longer and resist wear better. Thinner strings offer more feel with every shot. A 12-meter set is enough to restring one tennis racket. Reels of 200 meters allow for about 15 to 17 restrings, depending on racket size and stringing method.

If you play occasionally or like to switch strings often, a single set is ideal. For frequent players or those with multiple rackets, a reel is much more cost-effective. Every string in the Dunlop range is clearly labeled with the correct length and thickness, so you can quickly find what you need for your playing style and how often you play.
