Side Tape
Equipment
William Luo Asked 13 years ago
Coach,
I am buying new sidetape, how many mm is a 5 ply wood?

Hi William,
Each bat is different. It is best to measure the particular bat you are looking at to make sure you get the right width of tape.

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

Alois,
The width of the racket is 1.3cm can you help me determine what mm to get. Im guessing it is 9mm. Please help me i dont want to get the wrong size. Thank You.
Measure the width of the wood. It just needs to be between the width of the wood and the width of the total racket.

wood is 0.6 and entire is 1.3
The side tape needs to be between those two measurements to cover the wood but not go over the edge of the top of the rubber.
