Hi CK, im about to replace my grommets for the first time and this video is all I needed. How is the quality/durability on the powerti grommets compared to yonex's grommets. Is it worth paying more for Yonex grommet replacement kits. Would like to know your opinion. Thanks in advance.
thanks alot, my racket has a grommet breaking so i was wondering how to fix it. also do you know if places like sport check can replace grommets themselves when they restring your racket or do you have to fix the grommet yourself before you get it re-stringed
Very informative, but however, what about for the Yonex Z Force 2 which has the grommets not shown in the types of grommets you have there, is it alright to replace to any of this?
Hey CK, I recently purchased a new racket, where the grommets are all very loose. I am able to remove them by hand. Is this a cause for concern, or is it ok to continue playing with this racket?
@@falsecatalyst3936 Ahhhh, some people use a soldering iron to turn them but you can string them immediately after fitting them as long as you cut them to the right length.
@@CKYew ahh ok thanks for the advice. I recently bought a 12 o clock grommet strip with 10 holes because i can't find any of the original 6 hole ones for my victor tk9900 now. Even e78 doesn't carry them anymore. So I was wondering if i could get away with using this strip. Thanks for clearing my suspicions and questions
Hi Ck, I currently have the yonex duora z strike. The 12 o'clock grommet strip is starting to wear off, and i can't find places that sell it. Do you have any suggestions on what to replaces it with and do you by any chance know somebody that sell it ?
My Astrox 100 zz makes some kind of sound near the t joint after I keep it during the practice Is that a sign of gromet deformities as there is no physical damage in the racquet!!
If you dont see any grommets broken then it should be an issue. I've found genuine Yonex racket, especially Japan made models to have rattles. Is yours a genuine one?
@@CKYew yes it's a genuine one Even I verified the product on the sunrise TNT website. Showed that my product was genuine and the only sound it makes is in the joint like as if something is inside the joint. Like a plastic wrapper sound. Anything you want to suggest??
Hi Jonathan, same technique, sharp pliers and pull. It should come out pretty easily. If not, you can twist the grommet with a flat head screwdriver before pulling it. Good luck! 👍
@@jonathanlazundin6650 Depending on your length and size of your replacement grommet. If its the right size and fits well, perfect. If its too long, make sure you cut it down so its the correct length. 👍
Not sure if you can make one at home but if you’re pushed, you can use silicone tubing which can fit through your racket grommet hole. Cut it up to size and slide it in during stringing.

Your stringer should replace them for you 👍🏼
@@CKYew thanks
Can the knot/shared hole strcth without pressing it to be wide open?
My Yonex badminton racket max tension 24lbs but if I change the grommet can it go above 24lbs? 26-28lbs?
It depends what racket it is. If its a high end model, they will be able to easily take more than 24lbs.
Does quality of grommets change the sounds of the string? Cause when i change my original grommets it sounded way muted than usual
Good video! I actually need to change Grommets :D
Thank you!! I have also previously subscribed to you too!! 😊😊
Does it affect head weight compared to original one?
will a shared/continuous grommet affect the overall balance point of a racket?
yep, 100%
Very informative, but however, what about for the Yonex Z Force 2 which has the grommets not shown in the types of grommets you have there, is it alright to replace to any of this?
Yep, you can replace the strips to individual grommets 👍🏼
Hey CK, I recently purchased a new racket, where the grommets are all very loose. I am able to remove them by hand. Is this a cause for concern, or is it ok to continue playing with this racket?
It shouldn’t be loose after it’s strung 😬
is change grommet make hitting sound different ? is original one is better ?
It shouldnt make any difference at all 😊
Hi can you put a 11 string grommets in a astrox 100zz can u try for experiment purposes?😅
All racket usually tend to have 60 plus grommets
Do I have to flatten those shared string grommets, or can i just string immediately?
Eh?? Why would you flatten the grommet?
@@CKYew like make them look like an umbrella

@False Catalyst You can even use individual ones if the strip isn't suitable. It shouldn’t change how the racket perform. Good luck!! :)

That might be a hard fine. Try your local badminton store? You can always replace them with standard grommets though
i will make sure to do that, thanks you very much for the help and your time@@CKYew
Good luck!
Hi CK, I got a question for you, The Grommet on my Duora 10 Is like tilted sideways Is that normal or needs to be change
Not sure what you meant by tilted sideways but if it was turned 90 degrees then it should be fine. Get your stringer to check, they’ll know 👌
@@CKYew Ty Ty
Hey CK, how do i remove jammed grommets? because my grommets are really hard to remove. Please let me know!
snip the half which is inside the frame off and pull the outside half out?
Can you help me replace it ?
One part of my grommet is dislocated or out of the hole when I bought it,with a new string so will it damaged my badminton racquet
Your stringer should be replacing damaged grommets when you next string
@@CKYew thank You sir.
👍🏼
hello may i ask how to make the shared grommet looks just like the vanilla's one that with bigger hole?
I’ve heard of people using a soldering iron to flare them
@@CKYew BTW It can be used right without flaring it?
Absolutely!
@@CKYew thx
How to remove the shared grommet?
Do you realise your grommets need changing if they’re damaged?? 😬😬
Is this grommet available in amazon
Yes links in the description
My Astrox 100 zz makes some kind of sound near the t joint after I keep it during the practice
Is that a sign of gromet deformities as there is no physical damage in the racquet!!
If you dont see any grommets broken then it should be an issue. I've found genuine Yonex racket, especially Japan made models to have rattles. Is yours a genuine one?
@@CKYew yes it's a genuine one
Even I verified the product on the sunrise TNT website.
Showed that my product was genuine and the only sound it makes is in the joint like as if something is inside the joint.
Like a plastic wrapper sound.
Anything you want to suggest??
Though it's an SP version
@@anumugen3613 Maybe get it checked by the store you bought it from?
@@CKYew ty good life ahead
May God bless you and your family

How to measure string tension ?
I just string aerobite at 26lbs
But sounds meh...
There’s no perfect technique to measure tension after a racket is strung except tapping it against your hand or something else.
@@CKYew I’m testing out aerobite string but sounds meh 😒
Not sure if stringer issue or string
Just wanna have something to help verify it’s tension 😂
Get another stringer to do it at the same tension and you’ll know if it’s supposed to sound like what you’re hearing 😂
@@CKYew thanks 😊
