HEAD Pro Vibration Dampeners
The HEAD Pro Vibration Dampeners are tennis racket accessories designed to reduce unwanted string vibration for a more comfortable, dampened feel at ball contact. Made from soft silicone and fitted between the central main strings, their compact button-style construction keeps the dampener securely positioned without significantly changing the racket setup.

Staff Pro Review
A straightforward choice for players who find their string bed too lively or prefer a more muted sensation at impact. The soft silicone construction takes some of the higher-frequency vibration out of the strings without altering the fundamental performance of the racket. Its small button format is also unobtrusive and easy to fit between the centre mains.
FAQs
Q: Does the Pro Dampener change the power or control of my racket?
A: Its main purpose is to reduce string vibration and alter the sensation at impact. It does not significantly change the racket's inherent power, spin or control characteristics.
Q: Where should I position the HEAD Pro Dampener?
A: Fit it between the two central main strings below the lowest cross string, keeping it within the permitted area outside the crossed-string pattern.
Q: What difference does the soft silicone make compared with playing without a dampener?
A: The silicone absorbs some string vibration after impact, producing a softer and more muted sound and feel. Players who prefer maximum string feedback may favour playing without one.
