Cuetec Cynergy Shafts
Shop the world's best carbon fiber playing shaft at FCI Billiards. Cuetec Cynergy carbon fiber shafts provide the ultimate in feedback, feel and consistent performance at an amazing price. Cuetec Cynergy shafts are designed with world-class performance in mind and backed up by their impressive track record. In 2018, a Cuetec carbon fiber shaft became the first carbon fiber shaft to capture a men's WPA world title, showcasing to the world that carbon fiber is the way of the future. With an effortless low friction surface, each Cuetec carbon fiber shaft provides a consistent and straight shot every time. FCI Billiards carries two categories of the Cuetec Cynergy shaft. You have the option of choosing an 11.8mm or 12.5mm model. View our entire selection below, and discover why Cuetec carbon fiber shafts are here to stay.
The all-new Cuetec Cynergy 15K Carbon Composite Shaft. Designed and developed with the input and direction of five-time U.S. Open Champion, Shane Van Boening, the Cynergy shaft was engineered for world-class performance. Constructed with a unique pattern of spun carbon fiber tow, reinforced by a poly-foam core, the Cynergy 15K utilizes an elongated straight-taper, ultra-thin white sighting ferrule, and 12.5mm Tiger Sniper tip to create a shaft that is packed with carbon fiber performance and the feel and feedback of wood.
The relationship between a player and their cue is formed by feedback. It’s comprised of thousands of tiny details, each interpreted by the player’s senses: the sound of the hit, the depth and sight line with each practice stroke, the diameter and smoothness of the bridge as the shaft slides through, the slight vibrations felt in the player’s grip as the cue’s tip makes impact. Each of these interactions forges this relationship, creating trust between the player and their cue. It was with these factors in mind that Cuetec set-out to develop the all-new line of Cynergy carbon fiber composite shafts.
“If I can’t feel it, I can’t use it,” was one of the first things five-time U.S. Open 9-Ball Champion Shane Van Boening said as we began discussing the development of a new carbon fiber composite shaft. Shane was right. With such a premium placed on deflection results over the past decade, feel and feedback had been left behind, replaced by percentage points and equations that had little to do with how the shaft felt or how much information is transmitted to the player wielding it.
With Shane’s mandate in mind, Cuetec engineers began developing a unique solution that would utilize the benefits of advanced carbon fiber manufacturing technology without sacrificing the feedback and touch players have long associated with Maple shafts. We’re proud to say that after more than a year of testing countless prototypes, the fruits of that labor have arrived in the Cynergy line of shafts: shafts developed to elevate the connection between the player and their cue with the added benefits of carbon fiber technology.
Cuetec’s Cynergy carbon composite 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 displacement. The result is a perfectly straight and ultra-strong shaft.
At the heart 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.
Less weight means less deflection. Benefiting from their ultra-strong carbon composite construction, each Cynergy 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.
Developed to provide the most comfortable playing experience, each Cuetec Cynergy shaft features a Super Slim Taper. Measuring 15.5 inches on the Cynergy 12.5 and 9.6 inches on the Cynergy 11.8, both shafts have virtually zero rise, allowing for a more level and precise stroke, regardless of the player’s stroke length.
At 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.
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.
