The HEAD Softac Traction™ Tennis Replacement Grip (Black) is designed for players seeking maximum traction, soft shock absorption, and a tacky surface that prevents hand slippage during aggressive play.

The Softac Traction™ replacement grip combines HEAD’s soft elastomer compound with an engineered surface traction profile. Designed for players who need an extra-secure hold on their handle, it features micro-traction grooves paired with a cushioned base layer to minimize racquet twisting on off-center hits.

The classic Black colorway provides a clean, professional aesthetic while keeping sweat marks and court dirt concealed. At approximately 1.8 mm thick, it delivers plush hand comfort without rounding off handle bevels excessively, ensuring high touch and reliable grip stability.

Performance Profile

  1. Tackiness & Grip: 9 / 10: High-tack synthetic elastomer combined with surface traction texturing provides elite slippage protection.
  2. Comfort & Cushioning: 8 / 10: Soft, forgiving feel that absorbs frame shock and dampens joint-fatiguing vibrations.
  3. Sweat Absorbency: 8 / 10: Efficiently channels moisture away from the contact zone to keep hands dry during extended rallies.
  4. Handle Bevel Tactility: 7.5 / 10: Strikes a good balance between cushioning and bevel definition for confident grip transitions.
  5. Durability: 7.5 / 10: High wear resistance against palm friction and repeated play.

Best Suited For

  1. Maximum Traction Needs: Ideal for players whose main priority is keeping the racquet firm in hand without relying heavily on overgrips.
  2. Arm & Hand Comfort: Great for dampening harsh frame impacts without moving up to a super-thick 2.1 mm grip.
  3. Humid & High-Sweat Conditions: Provides extra mechanical friction via its traction pattern when moisture accumulates.
  4. Universal Aesthetics: Complements any racquet frame while resisting visible wear and soil.
