Abstract
Structures with racket performance varied according to the configurations of cylindrical parts can be easily used. A grommet includes a cylindrical part which is mounted pierced through a through hole formed in a frame of a racket and through which a string passes. The string is extended in a tensioned state on the frame so as to form front and back faces as hitting faces. The cylindrical part includes a first formation section forming both sides of a central axis position of the cylindrical part and a second formation section rotationally shifted with reference to the central axis position by 90 degrees relative to the first formation section and forming both sides of the central axis position. One of the first and second formation sections is disposed on both sides in a front/back direction. The first and second formation sections each have a different rigidity.
