Construction and context
Babolat labels NF²-Tech and Control Frame Technology on the product page. These are manufacturer technology labels, rather than independent evidence of a particular playing outcome.
Who it may suit
This record helps a shopper distinguish Babolat’s published 100 in², 16/20 configuration and compare its listed dimensions, unstrung weight and balance, swing-weight field, stiffness field, and stringing status with other exact catalog records. Those fields do not establish fit or outcome for a particular player.
Specifications in context
- 305 g +/- 7 g unstrung weight and 310 mm +/- 7 mm balance
- These are Babolat’s published unstrung-frame fields with stated tolerances, useful for comparison but not exact measurements of every individual racquet.
- 16/20 stringing pattern and 22-26 kg / 48-57 lbs recommended tension
- These are the manufacturer’s listed stringing fields for this configuration, not a prediction of feel, durability, or a particular player’s result.
Tradeoffs and caveats
- Babolat attaches a +/- 7 g tolerance to its published unstrung weight and a +/- 7 mm tolerance to its published balance, so individual frames can vary.
- The swing-weight and stiffness fields are manufacturer-supplied catalog data, not independent laboratory measurements made by this directory.
- Strings, tension, grips, dampeners, and other setup choices can change a finished racquet beyond the stated unstrung configuration.
