Ashaway ZyMax 69 Fire – durable 200 m reel for frequent players and stringers
The Ashaway ZyMax 69 Fire is a robust badminton string for players and stringers looking for high durability, dependable tension stability and a performance-oriented response. Its 0.69 mm gauge provides significantly more resistance than ultra-thin competition strings.
The 200-metre reel is particularly suitable for clubs, tournament players, stringing services and frequent players. Depending on the racket head, stringing pattern and working method, one reel will generally string approximately 20 badminton rackets.
Playing feel and characteristics
The ZyMax 69 Fire provides a medium-to-hard and stable impact response. Shuttle contact remains clear and controllable without the greater sensitivity associated with ultra-thin 0.62 to 0.66 mm strings.
Its BETA Polymer ZyWeaVe™ core is designed for high dynamic stiffness, strength and minimal tension loss. This helps the string bed remain predictable over time and supports controlled clears, drives and powerful attacking strokes.
The wear-resistant outer structure made from high-tenacity BETA Polymer microfilaments improves resistance under regular use. The ZyMax 69 Fire is therefore especially suitable for players who break thinner performance strings too frequently.

Who should choose the Ashaway ZyMax 69 Fire?
The string is suitable for ambitious recreational players, club players and competitive players who play regularly and prefer a durable setup. It works especially well for players with high string wear or those who use relatively high stringing tensions.
Clubs, coaches and professional stringers also benefit from the economical 200-metre reel. Anyone stringing many rackets with a durable and tension-stable string receives a dependable option for training and competition.
Players seeking maximum repulsion and an extremely refined response may prefer a thinner ZyMax string. When strength and string life are the main priorities, the ZyMax 69 Fire is the appropriate choice within the Fire range.

We recommend the Ashaway ZyMax 69 Fire to players and stringers looking for a highly durable 0.69 mm string with excellent tension stability and convincing playing performance.
