Pimples out rubbers lifetime

CARLOS A Asked 1 year ago

Hello coach, i read here that the lifetime for rubbers is 80-100 hours , but is the same for pimples out rubbers ? 

The pimples out rubbers like the RITC 802-40  may last long time or be inmortals :)

what do you think ?

Hi Carlos,

I can see you're interested in the longevity of rubbers. The general rule with all rubber types is that the lifespan depends on how much and how often you play, however, pimples out rubbers generally last much longer than regular rubbers. If you use the RITC 802 correctly and with the proper care, you can expect it to have a lifespan of around 120+ hours. That said, I've seen players getting almost double that amount out of their rubber, so it really depends on how you take care of it.
