Hmm...I've never had this issue before so I dont really know how to remedy it. One of the grommets on one of my TI-10's is popping out. How this affects the racket I dont know, but it sure looks annoying is not very reassuring to me. Any fix for this or do I need to go through Yonex warranty?
go to your stringer and ask them about it, and they should replace the grommets from you if they think it's a problem...
Well just ask your stringer to replace a new grommet when next string. And push the grommet completely into the hole. (Contact the frame)
just push it back in. you don't need to replace it unless it is breaking. most grommets are supposed to be somewhat easy to get in and out.
If the grommet is beginning to split, get it changed out because it's going to cut the string eventually.
Thanks for the input(s). I'll go to my stringer and ask him to replace the grommet. I didn't know they were supposed to come out easily, and yes, the lone grommet plastic piece that is sticking out is already cutting thru my strings...
You may want to consider getting the racket re-stringed if the string is already been nicked by the broken gromet. I had a broken grommet on the racket once and didn't notice it until after a smash when the string broken at a corner and noticed it.
i'm quite sure its the either way around. grommets will in no way damage string. its too maliable. the frame however, is probably the culprit to blame. grommets split and bend when under tension from string...
Either case they are both true. If the grommet broken piece is sharp enough it can cut through - just depends how you hit to actually do it.
