TNT2 Pro Plus 16

Nylon Gauge 16 1.37 mm In production

Lab measurements for Gamma TNT2 Pro Plus 16, ranked against all 789 strings in the database. Every figure below is a testing-machine result at a fixed reference tension, not a playtest opinion.

Measured values

Stiffness

158lb/in

lower = softer, kinder on the arm

Tension loss

26%

lower = stays where you strung it

Energy return

94%

higher = livelier, more free power

Spin potential

3.1

higher = more spin off the string bed

Ball bite

0.441COF

higher = grabs the ball harder

Snapback

0.141COF

lower = strings slide and snap back

How it ranks against all 789 strings

Stiffness 158 lb/in · 23rd pct

Stiffer than 23% of strings tested.

Tension loss 26 % · 38th pct

Sheds more tension than 38% of strings tested.

Energy return 94 % · 95th pct

Livelier than 95% of strings tested — huge free power off the string bed.

Spin potential 3.1 · 11th pct

More spin potential than 11% of strings tested.

Ball bite 0.441 COF · 50th pct

Grips the ball harder than 50% of strings tested.

Snapback 0.141 COF · 91st pct

More string-on-string friction than 91% of strings tested — notches badly and stays put.

What these numbers mean

Stiffness · lb/in

How much the string bed resists deflection. Higher plays firmer and more controlled; lower plays softer and easier on the arm.

Tension loss · %

Share of the reference tension the string sheds under a fixed test protocol. Lower means the bed stays where you strung it for longer.

Energy return · %

Share of impact energy handed back to the ball. Higher plays livelier and more powerful.

Spin potential

Ball friction divided by string-on-string friction. Higher means better bite with a cleaner snapback, so more spin.

Ball bite · COF

String-on-ball friction. Higher grabs the ball harder through the brush.

Snapback · COF

String-on-string friction. Lower lets the mains slide and snap back into place after impact.
