Abstract

The invention relates to games racket frames which are made from reinforced plastics material and have a hollow construction. The invention enables a satisfactory hollow product to be made by injection moulding instead of the more laborious technique of building a suitable reinforced hollow construction around a mandrel. The frame is a hollow injection moulding of reinforced thermoplastics material in which the walls (21A and 21B) at the outer and inner circumference of the head (21) (Figure 4 not shown) are joined by support means (25) through which the stringing holes (23) pass. The support means are integrally formed during the moulding. The method of the invention involves the use of a fusible core (10) (Figure 1 not shown) which is shaped to provide the desired moulding with support means and which is melted out after the moulding is formed. <IMAGE>
