What are the materials and advantages of badminton racket overgrip?
Mar 20, 2025
In the passionate and fast-paced sport of badminton, grip tape plays a crucial role as the vital bridge connecting players to their rackets. As a professional manufacturer of grip tape, we understand that different materials can offer players varied gripping experiences and performance advantages. Today, we will delve into the main materials and advantages of badminton racket grip tape in detail, hoping to provide valuable references for everyone.
1.Towel Grip Tape
Towel grip tape is typically made of cotton material, resembling towels in appearance and feel, with exceptional sweat absorption. For badminton enthusiasts who tend to sweat easily in their palms, towel grip tape is undoubtedly the ideal choice for summer or high-intensity matches. It quickly absorbs sweat, keeping the palms relatively dry and preventing the racket from slipping in the hand. Additionally, towel grip tape enhances friction during gripping, making the hold more stable. However, a minor drawback is its relatively poor durability, as it wears out easily and requires frequent replacement. But even so, its excellent sweat absorption performance still makes it loved by many users.
2.PU Grip Tape
PU grip tape has gained wide market recognition for its smooth surface, good elasticity, and rich color options. This type of grip tape is durable and can withstand extended use without easy damage. Meanwhile, PU grip tape offers some anti-slip properties in dry environments. For users who prioritize both aesthetics and durability, PU grip tape is undoubtedly a good choice. Of course, in situations with excessive sweating, its anti-slip performance may decrease somewhat, but overall, it remains a well-balanced and highly adaptable grip tape.
3.Tacky Grip Tape
Tacky grip tape often uses special rubber or similar materials, characterized by its sticky surface. This stickiness allows for a tight fit between the palm and the racket, providing an excellent grip and enabling players to have more precise control over the racket during shots. However, the tackiness of tacky grip tape gradually diminishes with time and exposure to dust, sweat, etc. Therefore, regular cleaning and replacement are key to maintaining its good performance.
4.Keel Grip Tape
Keel grip tape stands out with its unique "ridge" design. This type of grip tape features a protruding spine in the middle, usually made of materials like PU. The advantage of keel grip tape is that it provides good support for the fingers, suitable for players who like to precisely control the racket through their fingers. However, the adaptability of keel grip tape is relatively limited, as some users may find the ridge uncomfortable and affect the natural feel of gripping. Nevertheless, keel grip tape offers another option for players seeking personalization and precise control.
