The Schuler Shaft - The AdvantageThe foundation of The Schuler Cue has always been the ability to join any Schuler shaft to any Schuler butt. Schuler cues have utilized this feature since their inception in 1975. Schuler cues have eight standard tapers available when you buy your cue or need another shaft, and unlimited custom-shaft capability.
Standard Schuler Shafts
Schuler Shafts: The ultimate in selection Super X (29 in. x 13 mm) A shaft specifically designed to
be forgiving in play. Shaft is flexible, and yields a soft hit. Super Pro (29 in. x 13 mm) Gives a softer hit and maximum
comfort through the fingers due to the insignificant growth of the shaft in a long
stroking area. This shaft is more flexible than our Pro shafts, and produces a
"softer" hit. Professional (29 in. x 13 mm) Our original
"Pro" taper. Designed along the lines of the early "masters" such as
Herman Rambow, Harvey Martin and George Balabushka. Minor taper in the stroking area
allows for comfort while still providing some "spine". Schuler Pro (28.5 in. x 12.75 mm) Similar to the
Professional, but has increased diameter in the back half of the shaft. This
combination forces the flex point further forward, giving a firmer hit. Very good for
improving cue ball control. American (28 in. x 12.5 mm) Back half of shaft is similar
to the European, with the front half of the shaft similar to the Professional.
This configuration produces a firm shaft with exceptional characteristics for control
games, such straight pool, one-pocket, and 9-ball. European (27.5 in. x 12 mm) Also called Ceulemans' Taper.
Grows quickly from the ferrule, with even faster growth at the midsection of the shaft.
Provides maximum "spine" while giving some relief for the fingers. Excellent
control, power, consistency. Constant (27.5 in. x 12 mm) Tapers constantly (wedge
shape) from the ferrule to the joint. Hit is similar to European. Super Constant (27.5 in. x 12mm) Elliptical arcs combine
to produce this powerhouse.
