tennis rubber weights
|
Most manufacturers do not specify the weight of
their rubbers. Since the rubber weight is a large portion of the overall weight
of a complete bat (2 rubbers are roughly half the weight of the bat), I think it's important to know this information. Below I've started compiling a list of rubber
weights in grams per square cm. I calculate this by weighing the uncut sheet,
and measuring the dimensions of the sheet. The weight per square cm is then the
total weight divided by the (length x width).
To work out the roughly how much weight the
rubbers will add to your bat, assume your blade surface area is about 190cm2, so
multiply the weight below by 190. Remember most bats need 2 rubbers...
The sponge thickness needs to be specified too,
as different thicknesses will effect the weight. Note that I weigh the rubber
sheet WITH the plastic protection sheet still on there, which will add a small
amount of weight too.
