Material Composition | Heavy-duty repairs requiring corrosion resistance | Industry Standard: Steel (ASTM A36) (common in industrial tools) Our Base: Aluminum 6061 (ASME B5.1) ▲ (lighter, 1/3 the weight of steel) Our Advanced: Titanium Grade 2 (ISO 5832-11) ▲▲ (lighter than aluminum, 2x stronger) | Lighter materials reduce user fatigue | Steel is heavier but more common |
Certifications | Export to EU markets | Industry Standard: CE (ISO 80000) (basic EU compliance) Our Base: EPR Germany (complies with German packaging laws) Our Advanced: CE + RoHS ▲ (broader compliance for EU/Asia markets) | Advanced meets stricter EU standards | Base lacks RoHS for non-EPR regions |
Screw Compatibility | Custom cue repairs | Industry Standard: 1/4-20 thread (ANSI B1.1) (universal but limited) Our Base: Joint Screw 8 (custom 8mm ▲) (precision fit for 8mm joints) Our Advanced: Universal 1/4-28 thread (▲▲) (fits 95% of global cue brands) | Advanced works with more cue types | Base’s screw may not fit non-8mm joints |
Tool Versatility | On-site repairs without extra tools | Industry Standard: Single-function tools (e.g., just a tap) Our Base: Two-in-One tool (tap + screwdriver ▲) (reduces tool count by 50%) Our Advanced: Three-in-One (▲▲) (adds hex key for accessory repairs) | Advanced reduces tool count | Industry tools require multiple purchases |
Portability | Traveling players needing compact tools | Industry Standard: 500g (ISO 17399) (bulky, 2x heavier than advanced) Our Base: 300g (▲) (lightweight for casual use) Our Advanced: 200g + integrated case (▲▲) (fits in a pocket) | Advanced is easiest to carry | Industry tools are bulkier |
Durability | Professional cue maintenance | Industry Standard: 500 N tensile strength (ASTM E8) (heavy-duty but heavy) Our Base: 240 N (▲) (lighter but risks bending under extreme force) Our Advanced: 450 N (▲▲) (stronger than steel, fatigue-resistant) | Advanced balances strength and weight | Base may bend under heavy torque |
