For more than 80 years, Longoni has represented Italian excellence in billiards. Founded in Mariano Comense, near Milan, Longoni is a family-owned company recognized worldwide for its craftsmanship, innovation, precision, and reliability. Longoni products are still manufactured entirely in Italy under the direct supervision of the Longoni family and are trusted by many of the world's top professional players.
The Longoni Break Maple Shaft is a traditional solid wood shaft designed specifically for powerful and controlled break shots. Featuring an American profile and a 12.8 mm tip diameter, it is built to maximize energy transfer while maintaining accuracy and cue ball control.
Manufactured from carefully selected Canadian hard rock maple, the shaft combines the natural feel of traditional maple with the strength and stability required for modern breaking. The wood is carefully selected, vacuum dried, climate stabilized, and individually inspected throughout a manufacturing process that takes more than 24 months from raw lumber to finished product.
To improve performance, the shaft incorporates Longoni's advanced JBR2 ferrule system with high-density G10 support and proprietary low-deflection technology. This front-end construction helps reduce cue ball deflection while enhancing feedback, acoustics, and overall playing consistency.
