    G'day everyone,

    Just have a quik question on stringing Aluminium head racquets.
    What is the maximum tension that should be used with an Aluminium head racquet? a friend wants me to string their racquet and I dont want to distort it. Would a steel head racquet be the same?

    Cheers
    Daniel

    Thanks for your reply anarkia,
    Wow! 25lbs on an aluminium head, I dont even string my mp99's that high.

    I Managed to distort an old aluminium head racquet of my own the other day at 20lbs, can anyone out there reccomend a SAFE limit to string an aluminium head racquet my guess would be around 17lbs.

    Cheers
    Daniel
