EVA
- Padel racket cores are made with Ethyl-vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyethylene
- EVA is increasingly used due to its durability
- Low density EVA is soft and comfortable, which high density EVA will bring power and precision to your game
Ethyl-vinyl acetate is a polymer used to create the foam in the core in padel rackets. It is a harder alternative to polyethylene.
EVA of different densities are used to create rackets with different characteristics, from softer touches to harder.
Increasingly, manufacturers are using layers of different densities of EVA in an effort to give the best of both worlds to players - the comfort of a soft core with the precision and power of a hard core.
