Thomastik-Infeld Dominant 132 4/4 Violin D String

The Thomastik-Infeld Dominant 132 is a medium-tension D string for 4/4 violin, featuring a flexible synthetic core with an aluminium winding. Part of Thomastik-Infeld’s long-established Dominant series, it is designed to provide a warm, clear and overtone-rich response with dependable projection and playability. Thomastik-Infeld’s official technical documentation confirms No. 132 as the aluminium-wound Dominant D string for 4/4 violin.

Its synthetic-core construction offers a gut-like playing character while providing greater resistance to changes in humidity. The medium-tension No. 132 has a specified tension of approximately 4.1 kg / 9.1 lb, making it the standard aluminium-wound D-string option in the Dominant violin range.

Classic Dominant Tone

Dominant strings are designed around a flexible multifilament synthetic core that produces a soft, clear sound rich in overtones. The No. 132 D string combines this core with an aluminium winding, giving violinists the characteristic warmth and response associated with the Dominant series.

Aluminium-Wound Synthetic Core

The No. 132 uses a synthetic core with aluminium outer winding. Thomastik-Infeld specifically distinguishes this model from the alternative 132A silver-wound D string, so the two should not be confused when selecting product information or images.

Medium Tension for 4/4 Violin

Designed specifically for full-size 4/4 violins, the Dominant 132 is supplied in medium tension. Its listed tension is approximately 4.1 kg / 9.1 lb, providing the standard setup for this model.
