Supra / nylon cord – FAQs

Do you replace the cord on both sides?

We restring the affected side and check the other. If wear is visible, we’ll recommend replacing both for balance and longevity.

Will the lens be secure after restringing?

Yes — we seat and tension the lens correctly and test opening/closing so it’s held firmly without stress points.

Can I choose clear or thicker cord?

We usually fit clear cord. If you need a specific gauge/finish, tell us on the Check-In Form and we’ll confirm availability.

What if the lens edge or groove is damaged?

Minor edge issues can sometimes be dressed; severe chips may require lens replacement. We’ll confirm before proceeding.
