About this item
The GM Fuze Grips provide consistent grip enhancement for cricket bats through an adhesive-backed rubber sleeve that wraps around the handle. Designed to improve control and minimize hand fatigue, these grips offer durability and moisture-wicking properties suitable for all playing conditions and skill levels.
GM Fuze Grips enhance bat handling with superior tactile feedback and shock absorption properties. The moisture-wicking surface maintains consistent grip in various weather conditions, while the precision-engineered materials prevent premature wear and maintain performance throughout extended play.

- Chevron pattern surface texture for optimal grip in all playing conditions
- Shock-absorbing rubber compound reduces impact vibration
- Moisture-wicking properties to maintain grip in humid or wet conditions
- Balanced thickness for optimal feel without compromising handle diameter
- Compatible with virtually all cricket bat handles (junior to senior)
- Premium rubber compound engineered for longevity and consistent performance
- Preserves natural bat feedback while dampening harmful vibrations
FAQs
Q: How do I properly apply the GM Fuze Grip to my bat?
A: Clean the existing handle thoroughly and remove any old grip. Peel back approximately 10cm of the adhesive backing and align the grip at the bottom of the handle. Gradually remove the backing while wrapping the grip in a spiral pattern with 2-3mm overlap between layers. Maintain consistent tension throughout for optimal results.
Q: Will this grip increase the handle thickness significantly?
A: The GM Fuze Grip adds approximately 1.5mm to the handle diameter. This modest increase enhances comfort without significantly altering the handling characteristics of your bat. Players preferring thicker handles may want to apply a second grip or use pre-wrap underneath.
Q: How often should I replace my GM Fuze Grip?
A: Under regular use (3-4 sessions weekly), these grips typically last a full cricket season. Signs for replacement include visible wear patterns, reduced tackiness, or tears in the surface. Professional players often replace grips every 2-3 months to maintain optimal performance.
Q: Can I use the GM Fuze Grip in conjunction with traditional grip enhancers like resin or grip wax?
A: Yes, the GM Fuze Grip is compatible with supplementary grip enhancers. However, the grip's surface texture is designed to provide sufficient tack without additives. Excessive use of sticky substances may accelerate grip deterioration and create an inconsistent feel.
