I think I understand your problem on the early Star5 They had that problem down in Asia where it is hot and humid. The brake pads were breaking up due to the humidity. Go to a auto brake shop and have them make up new pads. If my memory is right the outer diameter is 3 1/2 inches, the thickness is 1/8 inch. Can't remember the inner diameter. You can measure the "cup" they sit in. Make sure you get the thickness correct. You will find it will be far superior to when your machine was brand new. Hope this helps. What year was the machine make?

That's the number for our US subsidiary. Outside of the US, you would go through your local Babolat representative or the global headquarters. It sounds like you've reached out to your local representative already. Let me know if you have further questions.

Hi Savvy,
Yes, we still have most parts available. They aren't manufacturing them anymore though, and I don't really have a time frame for how long we will have what parts. You can reach me at 877-316-9435 X130.

You can do what I did when I got my Star 5 and just buy a refurbished tension module. Not the cheapest fix but it was quick and easy.
where can I buy a refurbished tension module and how much? I'll decide if it's worth repairing!
