Dunlop Silk Pro Tennis String

Dunlop Silk Pro Tennis String

The Dunlop Silk Pro is Dunlop's premium natural gut alternative — a multifilament string engineered around the thermo-elastic PU resin coating and polymer treatment that most closely approximates the exceptional feel, power, and playability of natural gut within a durable synthetic construction. Where standard multifilament strings aim for comfortable performance, the Silk Pro aims higher: the gut-like feel that translates to exceptional touch on volleys, precise depth control on groundstrokes, and the elastic power response that makes gut the preferred string of the highest-level players who can afford to restring it. For players who want the closest synthetic equivalent to natural gut performance, the Dunlop Silk Pro is the answer within Dunlop's lineup.

• Thermo-Elastic PU Resin Construction — Gut-Like Feel — The thermo-elastic polyurethane resin that binds the Silk Pro's fiber bundles is specifically engineered to mimic natural gut's characteristic thermal elasticity — the way gut responds to temperature during play, maintaining consistent tension feel and a lively, spring-like contact quality that synthetic strings without this construction cannot replicate.
• Polymer Coating for Smooth Response — The polymer surface coating gives the Silk Pro a smooth, clean surface that reduces string friction during contact and provides a consistent, predictable feel across the string bed — the smooth response quality that makes gut strings so precise in touch and depth control during net play and groundstroke targeting.
• Exceptional Power and Comfort — Premium multifilament construction delivers the elastic energy response and impact shock absorption that generate Silk Pro's combination of effortless power and arm-friendly comfort — the dual quality that makes natural gut irreplaceable for players who have played with it and the quality the Silk Pro most closely approximates in synthetic form.
• Superior Touch and Feel Response — The Silk Pro's gut-like construction translates to exceptional touch feedback — the ability to feel where the ball is on the string bed during volleys, drop shots, and touch groundstrokes that separate the best synthetic strings from average-performing ones at point of contact.
• Available in 16G (1.32mm) and 17G (1.25mm) — The slightly heavier 16G gauge increases durability and full-bodied feel for players who hit with pace, while 17G's thinner profile maximizes the gut-like feel feedback and touch sensitivity that is the Silk Pro's primary performance advantage.
• Dunlop's Premium Synthetic Gut Standard — Positioned at the top of Dunlop's string lineup as the performance string for the most demanding players — tour-level construction in a format that delivers on Dunlop's string heritage and the brand's commitment to premium performance across their full equipment range.
