that is called a grommet, just buy new grommet guard.

its look more likely sinking frame, the frame already damage. replacing grommet might not fully void future damage.

Any racquet manufacturer can simply put a random number on the racquet (especially a high value) to entice people especially those who think that a higher warranty value means a stronger frame (that can survive clashes, yeah! LOL). This is what you call advertising.

Now you have the real fact of the string cutting through the weak graphite to show you how untrue the "max 35lbs" advertising claim is.
