Elk-Master 13mm Pool Billiard Cue Tips (25 Tips)

Product was as advertised ! Speedy shipping.

Super soft easy to shape but also easy to gouge plays great retains chalk well airates easily

I volunteer at a community center where the cues take a beating.These are pretty thick tips compared to what sometimes comes with the new cues. They need a little bit of roughing up with a scuffer and possibly a bit of shaping as sometimes there is a bit of a divot on top.I started replacing the "slide on" tips with these when the slide on tips were knocked loose or off. Here is what I found that seems to work pretty well when replacing a missing tip.I use super glue after flattening and smoothing the cue end (the plastic tips are concave) using a Cue Tip Sander then finishing off with 150 grit to remove the deeper scratches of the 50 grit that comes with the sander and also use the 150 grit on the bottom of the new cue tip for a smooth flat finish on both for the superglue to be most effective. Per the recommendation on the package of superglue, I don't use the cues for 24 hours.Tools I have purchased for this:Tweeten Rapid Cue Tip Sander KitCuetec Bowtie Billiard Cue Stick Tip Tool100 or 150 grit sandpaper

The Elk Master Tips have stood the test of time. Are there alternatives? Sure, dozens, but at this level; that is, the level of being the choice of Pool, Billiard, and Snooker players all over the world, you couldn't go very far wrong.

I love these tips! Complete game changer! From what I can see you don't have to use cue chalk with these. I didn't have to shape them either. Very accurate shooting with them and no miscues.I will definitely order more of these when I go through the 25 I ordered.

Exactly what I was looking for and great price.

The kids enjoy playing billiards and they stand up to their playing.

For the most part these are awesome. They play great and are super easy to install. The only problem I have is the consistency from tip to tip is not perfect. That's sorta excusable though given the price.
