Looking for durable multifilaments strings

UTR 11 and 12 are higher level hard hitting juniors…if you dont want them to break strings then a.) tell them to stop hitting so hard and/or with so much spin (unlikely)
b.) try @g4driver recommendation of triax/cream or triax/poly tour air
c.) make them restring themselves
d.) use a softer copoly and make sure to restring when it dies
e.) switch racquets to a denser pattern at the cost of power/spin in exchange for control/durability
multifilaments are not meant for high level hard hitting players…

What frame do they use? Maybe the frame is really harsh on strings, also is it stiff? Could be worth switching to a softer frame and using a poly main gut/multi cross hybrid because 45 mins per string set is a bit tragic too be honest
gut/multi cross will snap just as quick lol

Fortunately, my son is no longer playing tennis competitively. He is now playing golf almost exclusively. My nephew can now string his own racquets because I have my own Alpha Ghost stringing machine.

Either way, I no longer string for both of them :p

Well not quite. He can lose as many Titleist Pro-V1 as he wants. I found a place that sells literally brand new Titleist Pro-V1 for $1 per golf ball. He can lose a lot of golf balls and it is still OK by me. Can't complain $1 per Titleist Pro-v1 golf ball.

Frequent string breakers should use racquets with a dense string pattern, e.g., 18x19. Have you considered trying a soft syngut like Ashaway? Durability may be better.

Multifilament strings are not to my liking - they become unplayable due to loss of control after an hour or so. Have you tried the 15 / 15L gauge multifilament strings, e.g., Wilson Sensation? Thicker strings should last longer.
