Badminton String OEM & ODM Manufacturing

Five badminton constructions, 0.66 mm to 0.72 mm, in 200 m reels and 10 m sets. The gauges and tension ratings below are the ones we produce, and they are the first thing a serious buyer checks — so they are stated here rather than hidden in a PDF.

What is in production now

Model Gauge Construction Tension rating Colours in production
BG66 0.66 mm Multifilament, coated 22–24 lbs Black, yellow, blue, green, white
BG95 0.68 mm Oval monofilament, double-elastic 26–30 lbs White, black, yellow, purple
BG85 0.69 mm Oval monofilament, double-elastic 26–28 lbs White, black, blue, fluorescent yellow
BG2009 0.69 mm Nylon 26–30 lbs Neon yellow, beige, red, purple, white
BG2006 0.72 mm Nylon 22–26 lbs Blue, white, orange, black

Thinner gauge means more repulsion and less durability; thicker means the reverse. BG66 at 0.66 mm is the control-oriented end of the range, BG2006 at 0.72 mm the durability end. That is the trade a buyer is actually choosing between, and it is why we list gauge first and marketing names second.

The same lines run four string categories

String is one production discipline with four outputs, so a buyer consolidating suppliers can take badminton, tennis and squash from one order:

Category Gauge range in production Typical construction
Badminton 0.66 – 0.72 mm Multifilament or oval monofilament, coated
Squash 1.20 mm Multifilament, semi-gut feel
Tennis 1.25 – 1.35 mm Polyester monofilament, round or rough
Racket (general) Per model Nylon or polyester monofilament

One order, one inspection standard, one shipment. For a distributor this is usually worth more than a marginally lower unit price from three different factories.

What a buyer can specify

GAUGE

Gauge

Any of the five production gauges as standard. A new gauge is development, quoted separately.

CONSTRUCTION

Construction

Nylon monofilament, oval monofilament, or multifilament with coating.

COLOUR

Colour

Production colourways, or a matched shade quoted against the run size for that colour.

FORMAT

Format

200 m reel, 10 m set, or a retail set with a sleeve.

BRAND

Brand on the reel

Reel print, reel label, sleeve and box artwork. Your brand, not ours.

TENSION

Tension rating

Stated per construction. We confirm it against the frame you are targeting.

MOQ, samples and lead time

A string minimum order is set by the coating run and the reel printing, not by length. Two things move it: whether the colour already runs, and whether the reel carries your print.

EXISTING COLOUR

Shortest route

A production colourway on a standard reel is the fastest order and the only one where a sample comes off stock.

CUSTOM COLOUR

Coating run

A matched shade needs its own coating run. MOQ and lead time are quoted with it, and the figure is per colour.

PRINTED REEL

Print and packing

Reel print and label add a separate setup. Quoted together with the string so the total is visible.

We do not publish a blanket MOQ for every order. The base figure is 500 pcs — a colour already running, standard reel or set. A number that ignores colour count and reel printing would be wrong for most orders. Ask for a quotation on your configuration.

Certification and testing

We do not hold a blanket certification for string, and we will not claim one. Testing is arranged to the buyer’s market: production samples from the actual run, material declarations, and the factory documentation a test house requires. If your market needs a specific scheme, name it in the brief.

How an order is inspected

Three checkpoints, all at the factory, all against the specification sheet you signed. Nothing here depends on us inspecting our own work and telling you it passed:

INCOMING

Materials

Face sheet, core block and edge guard are sample-checked against the approved specification before the run starts.

IN-PROCESS

Weight and balance

Measured off the production line, not off a sample bench. A line that drifts gets stopped, not averaged.

PRE-SHIPMENT

Packed cartons

Sample drawn from packed cartons at the agreed AQL level. The measurement sheet and photographs travel with the shipment.

If you use a third-party inspection company, we schedule it. Name it in the brief so the date sits inside the production plan rather than after it.

Questions buyers ask before a sample

What is the minimum order for a string?

500 pcs for a standard configuration: a colour already running, standard reel or set. A custom shade adds a coating run and reel printing adds a print setup, both quoted per order.

What gauge range can you produce?

Our badminton strings currently run from 0.66 mm to 0.72 mm, across five models: BG66 at 0.66 mm, BG95 at 0.68 mm, BG85 and BG2009 at 0.69 mm, and BG2006 at 0.72 mm. A gauge outside that set is a new construction, not a new label, and we quote it as development.

Is the tension rating the string’s limit or the racket’s?

It is the string’s. BG66 is rated 22–24 lbs, BG2006 22–26 lbs, BG85 26–28 lbs, and BG95 and BG2009 26–30 lbs. These are the tensions the construction is built to take, independent of the frame. A buyer specifying a high-tension line for a frame that cannot hold it is buying warranty claims, so we ask for the frame spec too.

Reel or set?

Both. 200 m reels and 10 m sets are standard for badminton. A 200 m reel is roughly twenty restrings at 10 m each, which is why stringers buy reels and brands buy sets for retail.

Can the reel carry our brand?

Yes. Reel printing, reel label, set sleeve and box artwork are all part of the order. Colour is a bill-of-materials decision on coated constructions, so a custom shade is quoted against the run size for that colour.

FANGCAN has supplied OEM and ODM sports goods since 1992, from Shishi (Fujian) and Xiamen, with 15 production lines. Gauge and tension figures on this page are the current production values of the listed models.
