Density list for Billiard Cue Tip of Various brands

The hardness of the cue tip has a significant impact on the billiard cue itself. The harder the tip, the faster the white ball will travel when struck with the same amount of force.

Chongqing Obright Billiard Cue Company – as a factory specializing in the production of mid-to-high-end billiard cues, we never stop researching and improving cue tips. The hardness of cue tips is generally classified as H (hard), M (medium), or S (soft). However, the exact definitions of these categories may vary among different brands. The DURO provides an accurate measurement of hardness. Since all brands use the same testing method for determining the DURO , there is no variation between brands. The higher the DURO is, the harder the billiard cue tip. The table below shows the DURO data of cue tips from various brands, as determined through years of testing at our billiard cue factory.
