Brand: Viper (GLD Products) · Category: Racks & Training Accessories
A loose break rack ruins 8-ball spreads before the cue tip ever touches the cue ball. The Viper Solid Hardwood Triangle Rack (SKU 27-0100, 11.6 × 11.6 × 1.25 in, 0.35 lb) uses rigid wood walls and reinforced corners to press regulation 2.25-inch pool balls into a tight pack.
Solid hardwood construction with reinforced corners resists the flexing and bowing common to thin plastic triangles.
Sized specifically to pack fifteen regulation 2.25-inch (2-1/4 in) pool balls into a tight break formation.
Measures 11.6 in × 11.6 in × 1.25 in and weighs 0.35 lb (GLD Products SKU 27-0100).
Pairs with the matching Viper Solid Hardwood 9-Ball Diamond Rack (SKU 27-0104, 12.0 in × 8.0 in × 1.0 in).
Best for: Replacing the flexible plastic triangle bundled with most starter tables so fifteen 2-1/4-inch balls freeze tightly for clean break shots.
Watch out for: Sized exclusively for 2.25-inch (57.2 mm) pool balls; 2-1/16-inch snooker balls and 2-7/16-inch carom balls will not fit properly.
Brand: Casemaster (GLD Products) · Category: Cue Care & Maintenance
GLD Products' Casemaster Parallax Cue Case (SKU 51-0400-03) combines a water-repellent 600D Oxford fabric shell with custom-molded interior foam slots that secure one cue butt, one shaft, and a spare cube of chalk against impacts and humidity swings.
Tightly woven 600D Oxford polyester fabric repels moisture and resists abrasion during league travel or storage.
Form-fitting internal foam slots cradle one disassembled two-piece cue (1 butt and 1 shaft) so parts never clatter together.
Dedicated interior slot holds a spare chalk cube alongside the cue.
Slim profile with a rubber carry handle makes transporting a personal two-piece cue straightforward.
Best for: Players who own a two-piece cue (such as a 58-inch maple or fiberglass cue) and want padded, water-repellent storage for league nights or seasonal protection.
Watch out for: Holds a single disassembled two-piece cue (1 butt, 1 shaft); it cannot hold one-piece 57-inch house cues or extra break/jump shafts.
Household cleaners and silicone polishes destroy billiard cloth and cause unpredictable ball skids. Aramith Billiard Ball Cleaner is Saluc's dedicated silicone-free formula, engineered in Belgium to clean and polish phenolic balls after play while keeping their anti-static surface intact.
Strictly silicone-free formulation engineered by Saluc so balls never become slippery or deposit residue onto table cloth.
Removes chalk dust, hand oils, and friction marks while preserving phenolic surface gloss and anti-static behavior.
Works by hand with a microfiber cloth or inside an electric rotary ball-polishing bucket.
Pairs with Aramith Ball Restorer for stubborn burn spots and the Aramith Micro-Fiber Cloth (40,000 fibers/cm²) for routine buffing.
Best for: Every owner of phenolic or resin pool balls who wants to prevent chalk buildup, skids, and premature cloth wear without contaminating the table with household silicone sprays.
Watch out for: Never substitute automotive waxes or silicone furniture sprays on billiard balls—silicone ruins ball friction and permanently slicks worsted or woolen cloth.
