Andro Rasanter C45 stands out with advanced construction adapted to the dynamics of modern table tennis:

• 45° hardness sponge: Medium hardness (medium, close to 42–45° on the ESN scale), made using ENERGY CELL technology, provides a balanced “catapult” effect that enhances shot speed and spin. The 45° hardness allows effective topspins and counter-topspins even with moderate hand acceleration, making the rubber more forgiving than Rasanter C48 (48°) or C53 (53°). The sponge ensures a long ball contact time, facilitating spin-oriented play.

• Grip-enhancing topsheet: The Rasanter C45 topsheet is hybrid – very grippy with a slight tackiness (semi-tacky), but less sticky than Chinese rubbers such as DHS Hurricane 3 Neo. The topsheet allows generating extreme spin on topspin shots, counter-topspins, serves, and short play. Compared to Rasanter R45, the C45 topsheet is more oriented to counter-topspin, offering higher grip against strong spins.

• Pimples with Counterspin Damper: The rubber pimples are designed with new C geometry incorporating Counterspin Damper technology. This system works like a shock absorber, neutralizing incoming spin and prolonging ball contact time, allowing precise control of counter-topspins and executing aggressive shots with a high trajectory. The pimple structure is wider than in the Rasanter R series, increasing stability and spin potential.

• ENERGY CELL technology: The sponge’s cell structure is highly elastic, acting like an energy “compressor” that enhances shot dynamics. This ensures a powerful combination of speed and spin, especially when performing various topspin variations (looping, drive, counter-topspin).

The rubber is available in 1.7 mm, 2.0 mm, and UltraMax (2.3 mm) sponge thicknesses: 1.7 mm suits control and short play, 2.0 mm for versatile shots, and UltraMax for powerful topspins. The rubber is light (untrimmed ~67 g, trimmed ~46–48 g), making it suitable for intense rallies and reducing arm fatigue.

Andro Rasanter C45 features technical specifications adapted for controlled offense:

• Speed: 118/100 (~8.8/10 on overall scale). The rubber is fast, suitable for topspin shots, counter-topspins, and flat shots (drives). Compared to Andro Rasanter C48 (125/100), C45 is slightly slower but offers longer ball contact and a larger sweet spot, which facilitates shot stability. The speed is close to Andro Bype (102/100), but C45 is more spin-oriented.

• Spin: 135/100 (~9.8/10). The rubber generates extremely strong spin, especially in looping topspin shots, counter-topspins, and serves. The hybrid topsheet easily attacks backspin and produces a high trajectory effective against strong spins. Compared to Andro Rasanter R47 (130/100), C45 offers more spin thanks to Counterspin Damper technology, which enhances counter-topspin.

• Control: 97/100 (~9.5/10). Control level is one of the highest among offensive rubbers, especially in blocking, short shots (flick, push), and counter-topspins. Compared to Xiom Omega VII Euro (~9/10), C45 is more forgiving and easier to handle, particularly in reactive situations. Users praise the rubber’s “safety” feel, allowing precise shot control even under pressure.

Trajectory: High, facilitating topspin shots and counter-topspins, especially playing close to the table or at medium distance. The trajectory is more flexible than Rasanter C48 but less aggressive than Rasanter C53, making it suitable for versatile play. Users emphasize that the rubber allows “dictating” the game through spin and precision.

Andro Rasanter C45 is a medium-hardness rubber (45°), which pairs well with various blades:

• Andro Treiber CI OFF: Balances speed and control, suitable for all-round play.

• Butterfly Timo Boll ALC: Adds extra speed for topspin shots while maintaining control.

• Yasaka Ma Lin Carbon: Enhances spin potential, especially in looping play.

• DHS Hurricane King II: Adds stability for counter-topspins, suitable for wooden blade enthusiasts.

The rubber also suits slower blades, such as Yasaka Sweden Extra, because the medium-hard sponge and high control compensate for blade speed. Users recommend using C45 on both forehand and backhand sides: 2.0 mm suits all-around play, and UltraMax for forehand to gain more power. The rubber is optimized for plastic balls, as the topsheet ensures strong grip.

Andro Rasanter C45 is designed for versatile offensive players emphasizing safe topspins, counter-topspins, and all-round play. The rubber suits:

• Intermediate players transitioning from slower rubbers (e.g., Andro Bype SFX), offering speed and spin with a wide margin of forgiveness.

• Advanced players seeking stability and spin, especially on the backhand side.

• Close-to-table play: Short shots (flick, push), blocks, quick topspins.

• Medium distance: Looping topspins and counter-attacking against spin.

The rubber is effective in serves (9.8/10) and receive due to strong spin, and blocking (9.5/10) is “automatic” thanks to the softer sponge and Counterspin Damper. In counter-topspins (9.7/10), the rubber allows aggressive response to opponent’s spin. Compared to Andro Rasanter C48, C45 is softer, more controllable, and better suited for players still refining their counter-topspin technique. Users praise the rubber’s “comfortable” feel and versatility but note it might be too slow for highly aggressive shots far from the table.

Andro Rasanter C45 stands out as a universal counter-topspin rubber offering:

• Extreme spin (135/100) and balanced speed (118/100), suitable for topspin and counter-topspin play.

• Counterspin Damper: Neutralizes incoming spin, allowing aggressive counter-topspins.

• ENERGY CELL: Dynamic energy transfer ensuring power and stability.

• German quality: ITTF approved, made with precise Andro craftsmanship.

Compared to Andro Rasanter C48, C45 is softer, more forgiving, and better suited for all-around play. Compared to Xiom Omega VII Euro, it offers more spin and control but is slightly slower (~40–50 EUR vs. ~60 EUR). Users emphasize the rubber’s durability (2–4 months of intense play) and the “hybrid” feel combining European speed with Chinese grip.

Andro Rasanter C45 is ITTF approved, suitable for all-level competitions. Its spin potential and high control allow effective rally control, especially when executing topspin shots and counter-topspins. Counterspin Damper provides stability against strong spins, while the hybrid topsheet adds quality in serves and receive. The rubber is a popular choice among intermediate and advanced players, especially for the backhand or all-around play.

Andro Rasanter C45 – is a versatile offensive rubber designed for safe counter-topspin play. ENERGY CELL, Counterspin Damper, and 45° sponge ensure spin, control, and stability. The ideal choice for players seeking all-around play with high trajectory and precise shots. Rasanter C45 means precision, spin, and German craftsmanship!
