Description
The Yonex BG66 Ultimax badminton string is an ultra-thin 0.65mm gauge string designed for quick repulsion, sharp response and a clear hitting sound. Built with a high-intensity multifilament core and a high-polymer nylon outer, it balances speed, control and durability, which is why it is a popular pick among club and competitive players who string their own rackets.
0.65MM MULTIFILAMENT CONSTRUCTION
High-Intensity Core with High-Polymer Outer
This Yonex BG 66 Ultimax string pairs a high-intensity nylon multifilament core with a high-polymer nylon outer layer. The core is rated at around 30% greater durability than normal nylon, while the outer gives the string its sharp feel and quick response. At just 0.65mm, this Yonex BG66 Ultimax 0.65mm string is one of the thinner gauges available, which is where its fast repulsion comes from.
HIGH REPULSION AND MEDIUM FEEL
Fast Response with a Sharp Hitting Sound
As a Yonex high repulsion badminton string, the BG66 Ultimax prioritises quick energy return off the string bed, which helps generate shuttle speed on smashes and fast clears. It carries a sharp medium feel, firm enough for control but responsive on contact, and produces the crisp hitting sound that many players associate with a well-strung racket. This makes it a strong option as a Yonex badminton string for repulsion-focused attacking play.
STRING TENSION AND SETUP
Strung Up to 28 lbs
The BG66 Ultimax can be strung up to around 28 lbs, letting you tune the string bed to your game. Stringing toward the lower end favours more repulsion and power, while higher tension gives a firmer, more controlled bed for precise placement. Players often choose this string to add speed and a sharper response to their existing racket setup.
SUITABLE PLAY AND LEVELS
Singles, Doubles and All Levels
This string works well for both singles and doubles play and suits all playing levels, from improving club players to advanced competitors. Beginners gain a responsive, durable string that holds up to regular play, while stronger players get the fast repulsion and control they look for in a thin-gauge string. The Yonex BG66 Ultimax string set is sold for restringing a single racket.
