Pool Cue Connecting Screws Pool Cue Connecting Screws create a fixed, non-breakable joint between the shaft and butt of a custom pool cue. Each 2.5" aluminum screw threads directly into the shaft insert and anchors permanently into the butt, fusing two separate components into one solid, one-piece cue. This permanent-joint construction is a popular choice for cue builders making jump cues, break cues, and specialty short cues where a quick-release joint isn't needed. 3/8-10 Thread — Key Info Thread type: 3/8-10, the industry-standard pool cue joint thread Material: Aluminum Length: 2.5" Flat side machined into the screw for a clean, non-rotating seat Joint style: Permanent, fixed (non-breakable) Best for: Jump cues, break cues, and specialty short cues Radial — Key Info Thread type: Radial pin profile (Uni-Loc-style radial joint) Material: Aluminum Length: 2.5" Groove cut into the screw to release excess glue during installation Joint style: Permanent, fixed (non-breakable) Best for: Jump cues, break cues, and specialty short cues built on radial joints
