Prince, a world leading racquet sports company, has launched new racquet frames made up of TeXtreme carbon fibre material, Spread Tow fabrics.
Prince wanted to utilise a material designed to be thinner, lighter, and more durable than traditional woven fibres, of which TeXtreme was the best choice for them. The new collection features the addition of TeXtreme Spread Tow fabrics which are created with a thinner structure and straighter carbon fibres to create a composite material that is 20 per cent lighter in weight with improved stiffness. Applying this material in the shaft and lower hoop with a 45° orientation, racquet twisting is reduced by 25 per cent without increased weight, according to a press release.Prince, a world leading racquet sports company, has launched new racquet frames made up of TeXtreme carbon fibre material, Spread Tow fabrics.#

It is based on using Spread Tows instead of yarns to achieve materials that are used to produce ultra light weight and high-performance products. Companies utilizing the TeXtreme technology achieve better properties on weight, stiffness, strength, etc. compared to those using other conventional carbon fibre materials. (GK)
