When you’re stepping up to the break, everything changes. You need a cue built not just for finesse, but for impact. The Action ABK09 Break Cue – 25 oz gives you serious mass, professional materials, and a design that signals you mean business. Whether you’re playing league nights, club tournaments or simply dominating your local table, this cue transforms your break into a weapon.

From the moment you grip it you feel the difference — heavier weight, solid connection, bold styling. With its 25 ounce build, hard rock maple shaft and phenolic tip built for break shots, this is no stock cue dressed up. It’s engineered and styled for one thing: delivering consistent, powerful breaks that set your run-outs in motion.

Key Features & Benefits

Heavy 25 oz Weight – This cue comes pre-set at 25 ounces, giving you the extra momentum you need for harder breaks. Many shooters find weight matters when you want to separate the rack and control the cue ball’s reaction.

Phenolic Tip & Break Plate – The tip is a 14 mm (or in some specs ~13.5 mm) phenolic tip with a transparent coloured break plate, offering maximum hardness and energy transfer for break shots.

1″ Phenolic Ferrule – Designed to handle the force of hard impacts, this ferrule delivers durability and minimal flex.

29″ Hard Rock Maple Shaft, Conical Taper – Made from hard rock maple, this shaft provides the stiffness and straight feel preferred for break cues. The conical taper gives consistent stroke feel.

Neon Green Stripe Design & Performance Wrap – The forearm and butt sleeve sport sleek black finish with neon green stripe accents. The wrap is a silicone-beaded texture for a performance grip under pressure.

Solid Construction – With a black collar, Inox pin, quality bumper, and overall build aimed at serious play, this cue gives you more than looks—it gives you reliable performance.

Why This Cue Works — Real-World Benefits

Break with Confidence: With 25 oz behind your stroke, you’ll feel the mass driving through the cue ball, the rack opening up, and the table reacting to your command. If your break has been inconsistent or you’re looking to elevate your game, this cue gives you the tools.

Built for Impact: The phenolic tip + phenolic ferrule + hard rock maple shaft make the ABK09 tailored for the demands of break shots—hard hits, high deflection, and the need for durability. Unlike all-purpose cues, this one is specialized.

Looks That Match Performance: The neon green stripe design and black finish don’t just look good—they also signal a serious player. When you bring this cue into a match, opponents know you’re not just showing up. You’re showing up to win.

Grip & Control Under Pressure: Break shots are under pressure—speed, precision, the crowd watching. The silicone beaded wrap helps your bridge hand hold steady, reduce slippage, and maintain stroke quality, even when you’re going hard.

Simple & Focused: No adjustable weights, no complicated accessories—just a cue built to break. This simplicity means fewer moving parts, fewer things to worry about, and a focus on performance.

Ideal For & Use Scenarios

• League Players & Club Competitors: If you play 8-ball or 9-ball regularly and want to upgrade your break cue, this is a strong choice.

• Players Looking to Upgrade from All-Around Cues: If you’ve been using a regular playing cue to break and want something built purely for the break shot, you’ll notice the difference.

• Home Game Rooms / Serious Players at Home: Even if you shoot casually, having a dedicated break cue like this means you aren’t compromising your main cue’s tip or wear.

• Gifting: For a pool player who takes the game seriously, this cue delivers both performance and style.

Who it’s not for:

• Players who prefer lightweight cues or need a cue with adjustable weight.

• Someone who wants a full “playing” cue rather than a dedicated break stick.

• Shooters who require extensions, case or joint protectors built-in (you’ll need to purchase those separately).

Care & Maintenance Tips

To ensure your ABK09 performs well and lasts:

• Pre-session check: Make sure the tip is in good condition—phenolic tips are hard, but if worn or damaged replace promptly.

• Wipe down your shaft and butt after play: Chalk, sweat and dust can build up and affect feel. Use a soft, dry cloth.

• Use a good cue case: Even though it doesn’t come with one, storing the cue in a protective case will protect the finish and keep the joint tight.

• Avoid extreme temperatures or humidity: Wood shafts can warp; storing upright for long periods can also cause warping.

• Check the bumper and wrap periodically: The silicone beaded wrap should maintain grip; if it loosens or degrades consider replacing.

• Use a Joint Protecter: Even though one isn’t included, buying one separately will protect the joint pin and threads when not in use.

Performance Tips for Break Shots

• Weight setup: 25 oz gives you power—make sure your stance and stroke are stable enough to handle the momentum.

• Stroke mechanics: With a heavier break cue, focus on accelerating through the cue ball cleanly, not just hitting hard. A smooth follow-through matters.

• Cue ball control: You’ll have more power—so make sure your setup allows you to still control cue ball position and avoid scratching.

• Use chalk effectively: With the phenolic tip and break pad (linen or fibre), chalking and keeping the tip clean matters.

• Practice with the cue: A break cue behaves differently from a regular playing cue. Spend some time getting used to the feel so you’re consistent in games.

Why Choose the Action ABK09 Over Others

• Not all cues are optimized for the break. Many cues compromise between playing and breaking. The ABK09 is dedicated.

• Strong materials: phenolic tip and ferrule, hard rock maple shaft — these matter when you’re frequently taking heavy breaks.

• The fixed 25oz weight means no fiddling with weights or balance—what you see is what you get.

• Design and feel: silicone wrap + bold styling = both form & function.

• Value: For its specs (hard rock maple, phenolic tip, etc.) it offers strong performance for the price.
