The HEAD Hawk 16G (1.30 mm) in White is a tour-grade co-polyester monofilament engineered for hard-hitting advanced players who need high-tier control, string bed stability, and durability. Designed as a firm, control-oriented string, the White edition offers a clean, crisp visual contrast on the court paired with a direct, predictable impact response.

At a durable 16 Gauge (1.30 mm) thickness, it is tailored for players with fast swing speeds who generate their own power and want to take full cuts at the ball without fear of overhitting.

Performance Profile

  1. Control & Target Placement (10/10): Exceptional. Offers a predictable string bed response that allows heavy hitters to place aggressive groundstrokes close to the lines.
  2. Durability & Wear Resistance (10/10): Maximum. The 1.30 mm solid monofilament profile resists friction notch wear and holds up well in open string patterns.
  3. Spin Potential & Snap-Back (8.5/10): Natural. The slick outer surface allows the main strings to snap back fluidly at contact, creating consistent topspin rotation.
  4. Touch & Shock Absorption (8.0/10): Solid for a firm tour poly. Provides above-average touch and dampening compared to standard, harsh polyesters due to its specialized inner core.

Key Technologies

  1. Crystal Core Technology: HEAD’s multi-stage heat manufacturing process. It engineers a flexible crystalline inner core to absorb impact shock and add touch, surrounded by a rigid outer layer for energy transfer and control.
  2. 16G (1.30 mm) Profile: Maximizes frame string bed longevity and structural integrity for players who break thinner gauges quickly.
  3. White Cosmetic Finish: Delivers a classic, high-contrast look that pairs cleanly with modern racquets (such as the HEAD Speed, Radical, or Prestige series).

Best Suited For

  1. Aggressive Advanced Hitters: Tournament competitors with long, fast swing paths looking for maximum depth control.
  2. Frequent String Breakers: Heavy topspin players using modern power racquets who wear through 17G or 18G strings rapidly.
  3. Hybrid Setups: Functions as a durable, slick main or cross string when combined with natural gut or soft multifilament strings.
