Featuring seamless True-Splice construction in four or eight points, combined with Predator’s world renowned low deflection shafts, each Sneaky Pete pool cue is primed to push fortune in your favor. So go ahead, work the room. Our Sneaky Pete cues play coy and play for keeps - because money won is twice as sweet as money earned.
Predator – Engineered for Maximum Accuracy and Power
Predator’s scientifically engineered cues and shafts have been proven to provide increased power and accuracy over standard cues. The key to a Predator cue’s accuracy and power is in the way its shaft flexes when the cue hits the ball. This unique flex reduces deflection, improving your accuracy by a mile! Predator shafts also provide increased spin for more precise ball placement.
Flex is certainly a great thing, but the feature that impresses players the most the first time they use a Predator technology shaft is the incredibly solid feel and hit — it’s a unique feel you can’t get from a traditional shaft.
All Predator cues feature a Predator technology shaft and Uni-Loc® quick release joint, giving you even more power and accuracy — and an even better hit. Predator technology shafts feature 360° radial consistency, meaning each shaft shoots the same no matter how you hold the cue. In other words, you get a 360° sweet spot, so you won’t waste time aligning the cue in your hands.
All this technology results in a high quality, top-performing cue — a cue that will help you play your best game of pool.
Vault Plate
The patent pending Vault Plate completely re-configures the stress points between the Victory Tip, V-TEK Tip Silencer, R2 molecular multi-density foam, and carbon fiber composite tube to create a construction that is stronger from every axis with less mass and a higher level of kinetic energy transfer.
R2 Molecular Multi-Density Foam
The R2 molecular multi-density foam fills the shaft with multiple densities at specific locations to increase or decrease stiffness and transfer consistent feedback to the player’s hand.
V-TEK Fiber Tip Silencer
The V-TEK Tip Silencer creates a stronger and more tactile gluing surface that protects the Vault Plate, while creating an audibly pleasing sound upon contact with the ball.
Unidirectional Aerospace Grade Carbon Fiber Tow
Woven fibers have long been the expected standard of carbon fiber construction, but they are not necessarily the best for every application. We have long recognized both the strength and the function of carbon fiber weave, however, recent advances in fiber technology and construction techniques have led Predator to take a different design approach. Previously, a woven fabric was the norm for the outermost covering of any carbon component. Now, new aerospace grade carbon fiber tow construction methods and new fiber placement theories allow us to tune the shaft by orienting the carbon fiber tow in the directions most suitable for a particular location in the shaft itself.
Low-Rise Taper
The low-rise taper is the result of the shaft’s unique construction and strength. This build allows for an extremely straight taper that only increases five percent over the first fourteen inches of the shaft.
Low-Friction Surface Finish
The extremely smooth and maintainable REVO shaft surface is created by our specially developed carbon fiber polishing process. This process involves measuring the shaft’s surface. Using a diamond stylus profilometer we measure every shaft and maintain a strict tolerance we call “Predator’s surface finish motif” which keeps the shaft from being either under polished (creating a less than desirable rough finish) or over polished (creating a glossy or sticky surface often exhibited on low-quality fiberglass composite shafts).
iMatch Pairing
iMatch is our patented process in which every single triangle is tested for density, mass, and stiffness for optimum pairing resulting in better shaft consistency and playability.
10-Piece North American Hard Maple
Hand selected and kiln dried, only the highest grade North American Maple goes into every Predator Shaft.
Victory Tip
Eight layers of pure performance, each tip is constructed to the most exacting standards and was developed to maintain optimum compression for the entire life of the tip. Its high contrast color allows for better sighting and shaping.
Greater than the sum of its parts
Predator low-deflection shafts deliver increased rotation and accuracy through their unique combination of strength, stiffness, and mass. This recipe for performance allows players to play more spin at a higher velocity, with not only less effort, but with more consistency than ever before.
TIP REPLACEMENT. Should you wish to replace the tip on your Predator 3143, Z3, Vantage, or CRM shaft, do not remove the dark gray tip silencer plate located underneath the tip as this will reduce the strength of your shaft and void the warranty. The tip silencer must remain at least .020″ thick to maintain the shafts integrity
