The Yonex Nanogy 95 (NBG95) is a premium, high-tech durability string engineered for players who want a long-lasting string bed but want faster repulsion speed than what a traditional utility string can offer.
Positioned in the Yonex lineup as a high-performance durability option, Nanogy 95 uses advanced materials science to bridge the gap between heavy-gauge durability and lively, elastic power.
Core Construction & Technology
The unique, slick feel of Nanogy 95 comes down to its composite carbon construction:
- Compound Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube Coating: This is the core technology. The outer braided high-polymer nylon fibers are coated with a complex layer of carbon nanotubes. This structural matrix reduces friction between the intersecting strings, allowing them to glide smoothly over one another without grinding down, drastically increasing durability.
- 0.69 mm Medium-Thick Gauge: Striking a careful balance, it is slightly thinner than classic utility strings (like BG65's 0.70mm) to allow for greater flex and speed, while retaining enough physical mass to prevent premature snapping.
- High-Intensity Nylon Multifilament Core: Provides a resilient foundation that handles high tension well while dampening harsh shock.
Playing Characteristics
- Exceptional Durability (9.5/10): The carbon nanotube coating makes this string highly resilient against intense frictional wear from heavy slicing and off-center frames. It is an excellent choice for players who routinely snap thinner strings.
- Smooth, Speed-Driven Repulsion (8/10): Because the strings slide smoothly against each other due to the nano-coating, the string bed snaps back into position with clean velocity. It provides an easier, more effortless depth on deep clears than traditional nylon-only durability strings.
- Slick, Medium Feel: Nanogy 95 features a Medium feel that is comfortable and forgiving on the arm, efficiently absorbing heavy vibrations. However, because the nanotube coating makes the surface of the string bed relatively slick, it offers slightly less grip on the shuttle, making it trickier to execute tight, heavily spun net slices.
- Metallic Acoustic Sound (8/10): Sweet-spot hits produce a crisp, satisfying, and metallic "ping" that sounds punchier and cleaner than basic utility strings.
Who is it for?
- Hard Hitters Seeking Durability: If you have a powerful swing but are tired of standard strings feeling dull or mushy, Nanogy 95 injects a much-needed boost of speed into a long-lasting setup.
- All-Round Intermediate Players: It serves as a fantastic, reliable bridge string for players transitioning from basic recreational gear toward performance setups, performing consistently at standard club tensions (24–26 lbs).
