FAQs
How often should I restring my racket with Wilson NXT?
This depends on how often you play and your playing style. A good guideline is to restring as many times per year as you play per week. For example, if you play three times per week, restring three times a year. Also, consider replacing the strings when you feel a significant loss of performance.
What is the difference between 17G and 16G?
17G strings are thinner than 16G strings, providing more feel, spin, and comfort. However, they are also less durable and will break more easily. 16G strings offer a better balance between durability and playability.
Can Wilson NXT help with tennis elbow?
Yes, Wilson NXT is designed to reduce vibrations, which can help alleviate tennis elbow symptoms.
Is Wilson NXT suitable for beginners?
Yes, Wilson NXT can be a good choice for beginners due to its comfort and forgiving nature.
Can I use Wilson NXT in a hybrid setup?
Yes, it is common to use Wilson NXT as the main string in a hybrid setup.
Where can I purchase Wilson NXT strings?
Wilson NXT strings are available at most sporting goods stores, online retailers, and specialty tennis shops.
Troubleshooting
String breaks prematurely.
Check your string tension; it might be too high. Also, inspect your grommets for sharp edges that could be cutting the strings, and if needed, replace them. Consider changing to a thicker gauge or a more durable string if this is a recurring issue.
Loss of tension/feel after a few hours of play.
This is normal for this string type. However, if the change is too rapid, consider restringing at a higher tension, and if the issue persists, select a more tension-stable string.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Compatibility: Wilson NXT strings are compatible with all standard tennis rackets.
- Stringing: The string should be installed by a professional stringer to ensure proper tension and performance. Recommended tension varies depending on your playing style and racket specifications, and it's best to consult your stringer.
- Care: Avoid extreme temperatures and direct sunlight to prolong the life of the strings. Inspect your strings regularly for signs of wear and tear, and replace them when they show fraying or loss of tension. Remember that the strings will lose their performance over time. This is normal and depends on frequency and intensity of play.
