The ARCSABER 7 TOUR gives you the medium-flex HM Graphite shaft and POCKETING BOOSTER frame of the ARCSABER 7 series. It suits intermediate players who value control, a soft but stable feel and accurate placement in doubles or singles.
Key features
-
POCKETING BOOSTER – frame shaping that holds the shuttle on the strings a fraction longer, so you can steer placement more precisely.
-
T-ANCHOR joint – anchors the shaft firmly into the frame for extra stability at the throat.
-
Medium-flex shaft – a middle ground between easy power and control, suiting a wide range of swing speeds.
-
Built-in T-Joint – the shaft is set inside the throat of the frame, which keeps the head steady and the shot direction consistent.
-
10 mm longer than standard – a little extra reach and leverage on overhead shots.

Stringing
This racket is sold unstrung (frame only). You can add professional stringing on this page: choose your string and tension, and we string it at our Point Cook shop. See our racket stringing service.
Questions & answers
Is this racket better for attack, control or all-round play?
Control and all-round play, with a medium-flex shaft that is comfortable to use.
What colours are available?
We offer it in Yellow (YONEX calls it Gray / Yellow) and Light Beige.
What weight and grip is it?
We offer it in 4U G6. 4U means an unstrung frame weight of 80–84 g. G6 is one of the thinner YONEX grip sizes (thinner than G5).
What string tension do you recommend?
YONEX advises 19–27 lbs for this 4U frame. Please don't string above 27 lbs. YONEX suggests EXBOLT 63 for control players and EXBOLT 65 for hard hitters.
Does it come strung, and can you string it for me?
No, it is sold unstrung (frame only). We can string it for you: on this page choose "Add professional stringing", then pick your string and tension, or choose "Keep original condition" to leave it as supplied. Shop stringing starts from $24 with string included (YONEX BG65 $27, BG65Ti $29, BG80/Exbolt/Nanogy $30, Aerobite $32, Aerobite Boost $34). Regular in-store stringing is ready for pickup after 4 days; a faster service is available for a fee when we have capacity.
How is it different from the ARCSABER 7 PRO and PLAY?
YONEX lists the ARCSABER 7 PRO and TOUR with a medium-flex HM Graphite shaft and a POCKETING BOOSTER frame; the PRO adds Ultra PE Fiber in the shaft and is made in Japan. The PLAY uses a graphite frame and a more flexible (Hi-Flex) shaft for easier power at lower swing speeds. All three come in 4U only.
