Perfect for improving players, intermediates or advanced juniors, the Dunlop FX 500 Lite provides easy power, fast swing speed and excellent manoeuvrability. With a 100 sq in head and an ultra-light 270 g unstrung weight, this racket delivers a generous sweet spot and quick acceleration through the air, making it easier to hit powerful baseline shots, controlled drives and spin-heavy rallies.

The aerodynamic head shape and widened throat (POWERBOOST geometry) boost string-bed flexibility and energy return, giving your shots added depth and pace. The open 16×18 string pattern supports strong spin generation, ensuring the ball lifts and dips effectively, even with shorter or faster swings. Players who want a lively, responsive and comfortable racket will appreciate the FX 500 Lite’s blend of power, spin and ease of use.

Colour: Violet/Black/Cyan

Technologies:

  • POWERBOOST+ Groove: Increases string-bed flex for greater energy transfer and ball speed

  • POWERGRID String Technology: Expands the sweet spot for cleaner, more consistent hitting

  • SONICCORE with Infinergy: Reduces vibrations and boosts comfort on impact

  • Construction: Premium graphite frame for durability and performance consistency

FAQs

Who is the Dunlop FX 500 Lite designed for?

It’s ideal for game-improvers, intermediates, returning adults and advanced juniors who want a light, fast racket that offers power, spin and easy handling.

Does the lighter weight reduce power?

No — the 100 sq in head, open string pattern and responsive stringbed design all contribute to strong power and depth, even with a lower overall weight.

Is this racket arm-friendly?

Yes. The lightweight frame and forgiving sweet spot reduce strain on the arm, making it a comfortable option for players who value ease of use and longer hitting sessions.

POWER BOOST+ FRAME GEOMETRY

POWER BOOST+ FRAME GEOMETRY

Greater ball speed


Larger sweet spot increases ball speed at the top of the racket thanks to added frame thickness at 3~5 and 7~9 o'clock area, which increases racket stiffness.
POWERWAVE GROMMETS

POWERWAVE GROMMETS

A larger sweet spot


Minimized difference in power level in the top, middle and bottom area of the racket. An even power level throughout the racket creates a larger sweet spot.
POWER BOOST+ GROOVE

POWER BOOST+ GROOVE

High-elasticity & vibration-damping


Deep groove creates a wider sweet spot area & more power, with increased bite and hold for more control.
SONIC CORE MADE WITH INFINERGY BY BASF

SONIC CORE MADE WITH INFINERGY BY BASF

Reduced vibrations for more comfort and lower injury risk


Located in both sides of the racket head, Sonic Core with Infinergy is a super-elastic, super-light material and offers rebound properties significantly higher than other materials. Power never felt so good.
