Understand Different Parts of a Pool Cue
The main parts of a pool cue are tips, ferrule, shaft, joint, butt and bumper, each designed to perform a specific function. A pool player should be familiar with the importance of each of these parts.
Having information about each part of a pool cue is important as it adds to the performance of a player. Besides, knowledge about each of the cue parts can help you choose the right pool cue. Yet another advantage of learning about cue parts is that the player becomes capable of detecting defects and repair required for a damaged part. Here is a discussion about different cue parts, materials they are made of and functions performed by them.
Cue Tip
A small component attached to the cue's front end is called tip and it performs the function of striking a ball. While leather tips are most popular, there are tips made from other materials, including pig skin and cow hide. The tips vary in terms of curvature and degree of hardness. Sometimes the tip is glued to the end or you may find designs where tips are screwed to the cue.
Cue Ferrule
A ferrule acts as a buffer between the tip and the shaft and its main function is to bear the impact of a hit and protect the shaft against any type of damage. Another important function of a cue ferrule is to hold the tip at the right place. Phenolic ferrules are common though you can also find those made of ivory, carbon fiber, metals and brass.
Cue Shaft
The forward part of the cue is called shaft and it is found in two types, including pro tapered shaft and European tapered shaft. The most common material sued for shafts is wood though some manufacturers make them using composite material.
Cue Joint
A joint in a two-piece cue is the spot where the shaft and the butt screw to each other. Stainless steel, wood, G-10 and brass are the common materials used for making cue joints. The two types of joints are flat-paced joint and piloted joint.
Cue Butt
The bottom end of the pool cue is called butt and this is the part which carries most of the weight. Exotic varieties of wood and ivory are the common materials used for making cue butts.
Another important cue part is bumper that protects the cue from damage. Some manufacturers use inlays as decorative parts of the pool cues. A wrap is also a useful part of a cue located at the point where the player holds the cue. Take care of checking all these parts while purchasing a pool cue.
