Description
Tecnifibre Duramix HD 17 will provide more spin potential and a softer feel, at the expense of some durability. This string is the latest technology breakthrough in the area of comfortable polyester strings. Combining 50% polyester fibers and 50% polyamide fibers (found in Tecnifibre's softer multifilaments strings), this string provides a suprising combination of soft and crisp feel. Duramix HD 17 takes advantage of a new resin material, known as PU HD, which binds the fibers together but limits the elasticity for a firmer feel and excellent control. The classic Tecnifibre coating SPL, Silicium Pyrogene Lubritec, provides an anti-abrasion surface for increased durability due to lessening string to string burning. The replacement to Tecnifibre Promix, this one will provide a slightly stiffer feel due to the higher percentage of polyester fibers as well as the PU HD resin. Spin potential is decent, and the string responds well to a slight decrease in tension. A good choice both for a baseliner seeking a bit more comfort than a standard polyester, as well as an all court player seeking more durability while retaining some feel.
Construction: Polyester / Polyamide Multifilament
Color: Natural
Gauge: 1.25 mm / 17g

I recently tried out the 17 gauge duramix hd in my prince exo3 white. The strings have a very crisp and clean feel to them that is awesome. There didnt seem to be any break-in period as the strings felt great off the first hit. However, my strings moved around like nobodys business. I had to constantly realign my strings which was annoying. The strings didnt really fray, they just broke unexpectedly after about 2.5 weeks, which is normal to short for me.
