GLASS COMPOSITE BONDED: Cuetec\u2019s AVID Surge shafts are constructed with multi-plies of glass composite bonded to A-grade kiln dried hard maple. This advanced patent-pending construction and bonding process not only strengthens each Surge shaft, but also increasing the shaft\u2019s dynamic stiffness. The .75mm bonded glass composite layers run the entire length of the AVID shaft, with each layer oriented to maximize performance and durability. The result of this layering process is a shaft that exhibits the feel of wood, with the increased power and longevity of a composite.<\/p>\n
AIR LIGHT FRONT-END CONSTRUCTION: Less weight means less deflection. Benefiting from their ultra-strong glass composite wood bonding construction, every AVID Surge shaft features Cuetec\u2019s Air Light front-end build. This construction allows the AVID shaft to be bored out more than 10 inches, creating an ultra-rigid cavity with far less mass, resulting in a more accurate and durable shaft.<\/p>\n
POWER+ PHENOLIC FERRULE: Measuring only 7mm in length, the rock-hard, Power+ phenolic ferrule on each AVID Surge shaft not only protects the impact point for Surge\u2019s supercharged energy delivery, but also provides a more familiar and stable platform for tip maintenance and replacement over the life of the shaft.<\/p>\n

AVID CARE & MAINTENANCE<\/strong><\/p>\n Maintaining the Cuetec AVID shaft\u2019s finish.<\/strong> Never use baby powder, hand chalk, talcum powder or other shaft treatments on a Cuetec AVID shaft.<\/strong><\/p>\n To clean the surface of your Cuetec AVID shaft, you will need just a few materials; Isopropyl Alcohol (75% or higher) and two (2) clean and debris-free soft cloth towels.<\/p>\n Step 1.<\/strong>\u00a0Remove any dust and debris by wiping the shaft with a soft clean cloth. Changing the tip on your Cuetec AVID Shaft.<\/strong> * Always use a recognized and proven cuesmith. Never allow a cuesmith to sand or modify the shaft\u2019s finish when installing a new tip.<\/strong><\/p>\n Replacing the ferrule on your Cuetec AVID Shaft.<\/strong> Warpage<\/strong> Abuse<\/strong> Shaft Diameter<\/strong> Cue Shaft, Pool, Cuetec Avid Surge Jump<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":9874,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"ocean_post_layout":"","ocean_both_sidebars_style":"","ocean_both_sidebars_content_width":0,"ocean_both_sidebars_sidebars_width":0,"ocean_sidebar":"","ocean_second_sidebar":"","ocean_disable_margins":"enable","ocean_add_body_class":"","ocean_shortcode_before_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_after_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_before_header":"","ocean_shortcode_after_header":"","ocean_has_shortcode":"","ocean_shortcode_after_title":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_bottom":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_bottom":"","ocean_display_top_bar":"default","ocean_display_header":"default","ocean_header_style":"","ocean_center_header_left_menu":"","ocean_custom_header_template":"","ocean_custom_logo":0,"ocean_custom_retina_logo":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_height":0,"ocean_header_custom_menu":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_family":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_subset":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_size":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_unit":"px","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_line_height":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_unit":"","ocean_menu_typo_spacing":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_unit":"","ocean_menu_link_color":"","ocean_menu_link_color_hover":"","ocean_menu_link_color_active":"","ocean_menu_link_background":"","ocean_menu_link_hover_background":"","ocean_menu_link_active_background":"","ocean_menu_social_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_links_color":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_color":"","ocean_disable_title":"default","ocean_disable_heading":"default","ocean_post_title":"","ocean_post_subheading":"","ocean_post_title_style":"","ocean_post_title_background_color":"","ocean_post_title_background":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_image_position":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_attachment":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_repeat":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_size":"","ocean_post_title_height":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay":0.5,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay_color":"","ocean_disable_breadcrumbs":"default","ocean_breadcrumbs_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_separator_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_hover_color":"","ocean_display_footer_widgets":"default","ocean_display_footer_bottom":"default","ocean_custom_footer_template":""},"pwb-brand":[154],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[52,55,143],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-9873","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","pwb-brand-cuetec","product_cat-billiard-cues","product_cat-cue-shafts-billiard-cues","product_cat-cuetec-cue-shafts","entry","has-media","first","instock","purchasable","product-type-simple","has-product-nav","col","span_1_of_3","owp-content-center","owp-thumbs-layout-horizontal","owp-btn-normal","owp-tabs-layout-horizontal"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
Cuetec AVID shafts must never be sanded or modified. Using any abrasive on the surface of the shaft will damage the shaft\u2019s finish and possibly weaken the shaft\u2019s glass composite bonding layers 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\u2019s warranty.<\/p>\n
Step 2.<\/strong>\u00a0Apply 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.<\/p>\n
Cuetec AVID shafts feature a light-weight white sighting ferrule. This inclusion to AVID shaft\u2019s 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 2mm to maintain the shaft\u2019s warranty coverage.<\/p>\n
While unlikely, should the ferrule on your Cuetec AVID shaft ever need to be replaced, it must be done by an authorized Cuetec 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\u2019s glass composite bonding layers. To locate an authorized repair center near you, contact customerservice@cuetec.com.<\/p>\n
Cuetec AVID shafts feature a limited-lifetime warranty against warpage.<\/p>\n
Cuetec AVID 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.<\/p>\n
Cuetec AVID shaft diameters should never be modified. Any sanding, polishing or abrasive treatment could jeopardize the ultra-thin glass bonding surface layer and immediately void the AVID shaft\u2019s warranty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
