Collection: 2 Piece Snooker Cue

This is a cue that splits into two equal parts, typically at the centre joint. This design makes it much easier to carry and store, especially for players who travel regularly to snooker clubs or competitions. Unlike one piece cues, which are made from a single length of wood, two piece cues offer portability without a significant compromise in performance. For many casual and intermediate players, a two piece cue provides the ideal balance between convenience and playability.

Not when the cue is properly made. A well-crafted 2 piece snooker cue features a precisely engineered joint, often made from brass or stainless steel, which ensures a secure connection and minimal vibration. When assembled, the cue should feel solid and balanced, with no noticeable movement or disruption in cueing action. Many players find that a good two piece cue performs just as well as a one piece cue, particularly for general club play and competition.

Most standard 2 piece snooker cues are around 57 to 58 inches in total length when assembled. Each half measures approximately 28 to 29 inches, which makes them easy to store in a compact cue case. Some shorter cues are also available for younger players or for use in tighter playing spaces. It’s important to choose a cue length that matches your height and playing style to ensure comfort and control at the table.

Absolutely. Many competitive and league players in the UK use 2 piece cues, especially those who value portability or play in multiple locations. While some professionals prefer the traditional feel of a one piece cue, the modern construction of high-quality two piece cues ensures they offer excellent balance, cue ball control, and feedback. With precision-machined joints and premium materials such as ash or maple shafts, a 2 piece cue can easily meet the demands of serious players.
