Cuetec's Cynergy 5/16 x 18 Thread carbon composite cue shafts are constructed with multi-plies of resin-impregnated military-grade unidirectional carbon fiber filaments. The diameter of each filament is 7 um(0.007 mm), or about one-twelfth of a human hair. The orientation of these carbon fiber filaments is crucial to achieving optimal durability, strength, and performance. During the heat curing process, each of these specifically oriented filaments works together to ensure there is zero net displacements. The result is a perfectly straight and ultra-strong shaft.
GAME CHANGER
Designed and Developed with aid of five-time U.S. Open Champion, Shane Van Boening for world-class performance, Cuetec is proud to introduce the all-new Cuetec Cynergy 15K Carbon Composite Cue Shaft. The Cuetec Cynergy 15K has been created with an exclusive pattern of spun 15K carbon fiber tow, strengthened by a poly-foam; the Cynergy 15K utilizes an expanded straight-taper, excessive thin white sighting ferrule, and 12.5mm Tiger Sniper tip to constitute a shaft that is filled with carbon fiber low deflection performance and the feel and feedback of wood.
Multi-directional Carbon Fiber Filaments
Cuetec 's Cynergy 15K carbon composite shafts have been created with multi-plies of resin-impregnated military-grade unidirectional carbon fiber filaments. The diameter of each filament is 7 um(0.007 mm), or about one-twelfth of a human hair. The orientation of these carbon fiber filaments is crucial to achieving maximum durability, strength, and performance. During the heat curing process, each of these specifically oriented filaments works together to ensure there is zero net displacements. The result is a perfectly straight and ultra-strong shaft.
Polyurethane Foam Core
The center of each Cynergy carbon composite shaft is its ultra-high-density polyurethane foam core. This Cuetec proprietary poly-foam core ads stability to the shaft, allowing for prescribed flex and creating a more wood-like sound upon contact with increased feel and feedback.
Flyweight Front-End Construction
Keeping the weight down is crucial for a shaft to minimize cue-ball deflection. Less weight means less deflection. Benefitting from their ultra-strong carbon composite construction, each Cynergy 15K shaft features Cuetec 's flyweight front-end build. This construction allows the Cynergy poly-foam to stop five inches below the tip, creating a rigid cavity with less mass and therefore less deflection on contact.
SST (Super Slim Taper)
Developed to provide the pool player the most comfortable playing experience possible, each Cuetec Cynergy 15K Carbon Fiber shaft boasts the all-new Super Slim Taper. Measuring 15.5 inches in length from the tip, each Cynergy shaft has virtually zero rise, allowing for a more level and precise stroke, regardless or the player 's stroke length.
Thin White Sighting Ferrule
The ferrule measures only .25 inches long, the light-weight, thin white sighting ferrule on each Cynergy shaft not only aids in aim contrast and depth perception, but it also provides a more familiar and stable platform for tip maintenance and replacement over the life of the shaft.
2.5mm Tiger ® Sniper Tip
Selected for its high-performance and neutral hit attributes, each Cynergy shaft is paired with a Sniper tip. Naturally cured for more than a year, each Sniper tip is meticulously honed, utilizing a unique vacuum lamination process that ensures the elimination of air between the tip 's ten layers.
CYNERGY 15K CARBON FIBER SHAFT CARE & MAINTENANCE
Maintaining the Cuetec Cynergy shaft 's finish.
Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shafts must never be sanded or modified. Using any abrasive on the surface of the shaft will damage the shaft 's finish and possibly weaken the shaft 's carbon fiber filaments and discharge potentially harmful materials that could be hazardous to your health. Any polishing, sanding, or treatment of the surface of the shaft with abrasives or chemicals of any kind will void the shaft 's warranty.
Never use baby powder, hand chalk, talcum powder, or other shaft treatments on a Cuetec Cynergy carbon fiber composite shaft.
To clean the surface of your Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shaft, you will need just a few materials; Isopropyl Alcohol (75% or higher) and two (2) clean and debris-free soft cloth towels.
Step 1. Remove any dust and debris by wiping the shaft with a soft clean cloth.
Step 2. Apply a reasonable amount of Isopropyl Alcohol (75% or higher) to a clean, soft cloth towel. Next, work the towel up and down the length of the shaft, while rotating your hand around its circumference. It is possible that dirt will be visible on the towel.
This is completely normal. Continue working the shaft with the same motion until all areas have been thoroughly wiped, then allow a few moments for the surface to dry.
Changing the tip on your Cuetec Cynergy Shaft.
Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shafts feature a lightweight white sighting ferrule. This inclusion to the Cynergy shaft 's front-end construction allows for easier tip replacement over the life of the shaft. When changing the tip, it is important to clean and resurface the ferrule. The minimum height of the ferrule must be greater than 1mm to maintain the shaft 's warranty coverage.
* Always use a recognized and proven cue smith. Never allow a cue smith to sand or modify the shaft 's finish when installing a new tip.
Replacing the ferrule on your Cuetec Cynergy Shaft.
While unlikely, should the ferrule on the Cuetec Cynergy shaft ever need to be replaced, it must be done by an authorized Cuetec Cynergy repair center. This is required due to the complex nature of the bonding agents used and to ensure that no damage is done to the shaft 's carbon fiber filaments.
Warpage
Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shafts feature a limited-lifetime warranty against warpage.
Abuse
Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shafts are not engineered to tolerate considerable lateral pressure. They should never be flexed excessively, hit on other objects or treated with any abrasives, whether they are solid or liquid.
Shaft Diameter
Cuetec Cynergy carbon composite shaft diameters should never be modified. Any sanding, polishing, or abrasive treatment could jeopardize the ultra-thin layers of carbon fiber filament and will immediately void the Cynergy shaft 's warranty.
