What is the difference in slate thickness?
I am thinking about buying a used pool table and don’t know much about them. What is the difference between a 1″ slate and 3/4″? And, yes, I’ve figured out it’s 1/4″.
Should I be concerned about anything if it is 3/4″ vs 1″?
Only buy a slate table, preferably 3/4″ or thicker. You need to decide if you prefer a runner table (pocketed balls go through runners and come out at the foot of the table) or drop pockets (balls stay in the pocket they fell into). I would also recommend getting the biggest table you can fit comfortably in your home. If you get serious about pool then a 7′ table just isn’t going to cut it.
One piece slate in primarily used on coin-op tables. These tables are fully assembled before shipping. If they used three piece slate on them it would likely shift and separate during shipping and loading.
Three piece slate is used on just about all other tables. They are shipped in pieces and assembled at home or pool hall. All those 9′ tables in the pool halls are three piece slate but you probably wouldn’t know it. A good table assembler will align the slate and fill with beeswax so that it appears to be one piece when covered
Another great place to shop for Pool Table Slate Thickness products is Amazon. They have more than just books!
