Dunlop S-Gut 16G Pink Tennis String

The Dunlop S-Gut 16G in Pink is a high-quality synthetic gut string that prioritizes durability and a classic, solid feel. While the 17G version is known for its "pop," the 16G (1.32mm) version is the standard "workhorse" gauge, offering more longevity and a more controlled response for players who hit a heavier ball.

Performance Profile

1. Solid Durability: As a 16-gauge string, it has a thicker cross-section that resists notched wear and friction. This makes it an ideal choice for players who want a synthetic gut that won't snap prematurely during heavy baseline rallies.
2. Predictable Control: The thicker diameter provides a slightly firmer stringbed compared to the 17G. This results in a more linear, predictable launch angle, giving you the confidence to swing fully without the ball flying long.
3. Reliable Comfort: Like all strings in the S-Gut line, the 16G features a solid core construction that absorbs impact much better than polyester. It provides a "cushioned" feel that is very forgiving on the wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
4. High-Visibility Style: The vibrant pink color makes a bold statement on the court. It is a popular choice for personalizing racquets and is easy for players and coaches to track during play.

Best Suited For

1. Club & Recreational Players: Those who want a dependable, budget-friendly string that provides a great balance of comfort and longevity.
2. Frequent String Breakers (Non-Poly): If you enjoy the comfort of synthetic gut but find that thinner 17G gauges break too quickly, the 16G is the logical step up.
3. Hybrid Crosses: A perfect candidate for the cross strings in a hybrid setup. It helps "soften" the feel of a stiff polyester main string, making the overall racquet much more comfortable while adding a custom color pop.
