Table tennis rubber is a type of rubber used as covering on a racket in table tennis. [1] Modern table tennis rubber is usually composed of two layers: a layer of foam ("sponge") underneath and a layer of actual rubber on the surface. [2] There are four common types of table tennis rubbers: short pips, long pips, antispin, and inverted. [1]
The theory behind speed glue is that it is soaked up by the sponge layer between the rubber topsheet and blade of a table tennis paddle. The sponge begins to expand, and consequently begins to stretch the attached rubber topsheet causing increased tension and creating a "trampoline" effect on the ball causing it to bounce back quicker.
Some glues may work even if they are not designed specifically for table tennis rackets, such as rubber cement and tear mender. [4] The rubber is not removed until it wears out or becomes damaged. In the 1980s, some players developed a new technique with a special glue called speed glue to apply the rubber every time they played. [5]
