Description

This cue is perfect for occasionally or regularly playing pool. It's the perfect partner for a powerful, offensive game.

Billiards cue weight

Your pool cue weighs 570 g (20 oz). We cannot guarantee that the cue will be a precise weight (margin of 10%) since the density of wood varies (even within the same timber species) depending on the forest, its exposure to sunlight and the section harvested (truck, crown, treetop).

Cue dimensions

The BC 500 US cue is 145 cm (57 inches) long. This is the most common length for cues. The length will let you get into the proper position for all your shots. For longer shots, there's a joint that you can use to add an extension to the butt, giving you an extra 10 cm. This takes your cue from 145 cm to 155 cm in a matter of seconds.

Billiards cue balance point

Your billiards cue has a 43 cm balance, which means that the balance point is 43 cm from the butt end. If you're using an open bridge, the balance point should be in front of your grip hand, if not, the cue will raise up off your bridge. The balance point is generally of low importance, except if players have a personal preference. The further away the barycentre, the heavier it will feel. A closer barycentre will make your cue feel lighter.

Why can't we guarantee the straightness of our billiards cues?

All of our billiards cues are manufactured. Straightness is checked individually, cue by cue, as they leave the factory. Nevertheless, changes in temperature and humidity during the transportation, storage and selling stages can affect their straightness over time. This consistency problem affects all billiards cues on the market, at least all wooden cues (maple, ash, poplar, ramin).

Why maple?

Maple is a particularly solid, robust wood that can be easily shaped. It can therefore be used to manufacture conical cue shafts (French, American). Historically, pool cues have been made from maple because it was (and still is) a widely available type of wood in North America (Canada). We continue to make our cues, including our carom billiards cues, from this wood due to the raw material being easily accessible.

Physical properties of maple and technical data

Maple has a density of 0.64 and a Monnin hardness of 4.7, making it a medium-hard wood. This species has a breaking stress under compression value of 55 MPa and a static bending value of 100 MPa. The longitudinal modulus of elasticity is 13,000 MPa. These are average measurements that can be found online. Maple is a solid, robust wood that makes it an excellent choice for manufacturing billiards cues.

How to maintain your billiards cue

We recommend storing your wooden cue in a dry place with a stable temperature. Do not lean your cue against a wall after finishing a game as this could cause warping. Instead, store it flat in a storage cover or case. On the other hand, you can also store your cue as vertically as possible, in a cue rack for example. This will safeguard its straightness and prevent warping.

DID YOU KNOW?You need to maintain the tip of your pool cue.

If your tip (the end of your cue) comes off, don't worry! This happens from time to time. Impacts with the cue ball can wear out the tip. You just need to change the tip, which is very easy: 1/ Remove the damaged tip 2/ Sand the new tip with sandpaper 3/ Glue on the new tip 4/ Work the new tip

Why is the cue jointed?

Your pool cue unscrews into 2 parts halfway down the shaft to make it easier to transport. The reinforced steel joint provides high-quality tightening and masks the impression that you are playing with a 2-part cue. And with its quick screw thread, you can assemble and disassemble your cue in just 4 turns.

What's the purpose of the bumper on the butt end?

The bumper is the rubber part underneath your cue. During matches and when you're waiting between shots, you'll probably want to rest your cue on the ground. Thanks to the bumper, there's no risk of you damaging your cue or the floor.

Tip from the team: the correct position for pool

Make sure you're the right distance from your pool table. Stand with your right foot under your right hand (if you're right-handed). Spread your feet to keep yourself stable. Make sure that your cue arm is vertical. If your hand is too far forwards, you'll struggle to perform your stroke correctly.

What is pool?

Pool can be distinguished from its cousins by its larger table (9 ft), its wide pockets (holes) and its large (approx. 57.5 mm), numbered, coloured balls. There are 4 main types of pool: eight-ball, nine-ball, ten-ball and straight pool. Pool is known as an attacking, risk-taking game.
