Description
Choosing the right squash string can transform how your racket performs on court.
The Dunlop Iconic Pro AF is built for players who want to hit with authority while maintaining a comfortable, arm-friendly feel — a combination that most squash strings struggle to deliver simultaneously.
This multifilament squash string at 17g/1.22mm gauge sits at the sweet spot between power generation and shot control, making it a reliable choice for competitive squash.
PREMIUM MULTIFILAMENT CONSTRUCTION
Multiple Fiber Core for Comfort and Power
Unlike monofilament strings that use a single solid core, the Dunlop Iconic Pro AF uses hundreds of individual microfibers bundled together.
This multifilament squash string design absorbs shock on contact, reducing vibration that travels to your wrist and elbow. Players who hit frequently during long matches or training sessions notice less arm fatigue over time.
The multi-fiber core also creates a softer string bed. Softer bed means the ball sits on the strings fractionally longer, giving you better feedback and more placement accuracy.
17G GAUGE — BALANCED PERFORMANCE
1.22mm Diameter for All-Round Play
The 17g (1.22mm) gauge on this Dunlop squash string provides a balanced profile. Thinner than 16g strings for better feel and spin, but thicker than 18g for improved durability.
At 1.22mm, the string generates enough snap-back on off-center hits to maintain power even when you don’t catch the sweet spot perfectly.
For players who break strings often, the 17g gauge on the Dunlop Iconic Pro AF offers a practical middle ground — you get touch and responsiveness without sacrificing string life.
POWER AND CONTROL IN EVERY SHOT
Aggressive Play From the T Position
This string is designed for players who like to dictate rallies from the T. Its power potential lets you drive the ball deep into corners with less effort on your swing.
At the same time, the multifilament construction keeps your drop shots and boasts precise. You get the power for attacking length shots without losing the delicate touch needed for short game.
This dual capability is why pro-level players favor this squash string set for both tournament and training use.
PSA WORLD TOUR OFFICIAL STRING
Endorsed by Ali Farag — 4-Time World Champion
The Dunlop Iconic Pro AF is the official string of the PSA World Tour. It’s also the personal choice of Ali Farag, a 4-time World Squash Champion from Egypt and former World No. 1.
This isn’t just a marketing endorsement. Farag uses this exact string in competition, trusting it to perform under the highest pressure situations in professional squash.
When a string carries PSA certification and an elite player’s trust, it provides confidence that the product meets professional-grade performance standards.
10M CUT FROM REEL — WHAT YOU GET
Single Restring Length
This squash string 17g set contains 10 meters (33 feet) of string, which is the standard length required for one complete racket restring.
The Dunlop Iconic Pro AF string is cut from a larger reel, meaning you get the same quality as the 200m professional reel at a fraction of the cost.
Color is black. Compatible with all standard squash rackets from Dunlop, Head, Tecnifibre, Wilson, and other major brands.
WHO SHOULD USE THE DUNLOP ICONIC PRO AF
Ideal Player Profile
This string suits intermediate to advanced squash players who value comfort without sacrificing power. If you play 3 or more times per week, the arm-friendly multifilament construction reduces strain over repeated sessions.
Players upgrading from factory-installed strings will notice immediate improvement in touch and ball feel. It’s also an excellent choice for club-level players in cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, and Chennai.
If your priority is maximum durability over feel, consider a monofilament string instead. The Iconic Pro AF prioritizes playability and comfort.
