The Preferred Choice of Serious Players

Discover how the differences in Brunswick tables add up to better playability and greater value.

For more than 150 years, Brunswick has been the most recognized name in billiards. The reason for that is simple. Behind the Brunswick name is a total commitment to quality that stretches back to the first tables built by John Brunswick in 1845. The quality shows itself in the superb playability and accuracy of Brunswick tables. In their craftsmanship. And in their styling. Used in more major tournaments around the world than those of any other company, Brunswick tables are the standard of the industry and are clearly the leader in resale value. Brunswick offers the largest product line with attractive options for almost any decor. Delivery is never a problem because a Brunswick table ships disassembled in boxes, which are designed to fit in any house.

HIGH PERFORMANCE^TM NUT PLATES

Our exclusive High Performance Nut Plate connects the cushioned rails to the slate. Unlike the more commonly used t-nut type hardware, this allows for the application of 70% more torque to each connection and ensures a solid, seamless transition between rail and slate for enhanced performance and playability.

HARDENED DOMED WASHER

Our Hardened Dome Washer provides constant tension between the rail and the slate to prevent loosening over time. This innovation ensures that the rail is gripped directly on the table, preventing it from turning or sinking into the wood which is a typical flaw found with other brands’ tables.

SUPERSPEED^® CUSHION RUBBER BURNER

Brunswick SuperSpeed cushions have been the standard in the industry for over 70 years and are used on all Brunswick branded tables. They are made to Brunswick’s exact specifications from a proprietary rubber formulation resulting in more controlled ball penetration, greater accuracy in rebounding and an exceptionally consistent rail on every Brunswick table.

HIGH PRESSURE BONDING

Precision is the name of the game and cushion rubber bonding and placement are a critical element to the overall performance of a table. Brunswick achieves superior accuracy and consistency in its tables by using Brunswick-designed, automated, pneumatically controlled machines that bond the cushion rubber to the rails for a precision fit that doesn’t vary.

ACCURATE NOSE HEIGHT

Banking and rebound accuracy rely on the nose height of the table’s cushion rubber. Brunswick’s automated, pneumatically controlled machines precisely place the cushion rubber ensuring that the nose height is consistent all around the table and meets the standard of 64% of a 2 1/4″ diameter ball.

SOLID HARDWOOD RAILS

Brunswick rails are made of solid hardwood. The rails are machined to exacting standards and provide a solid foundation behind the cushion rubber to ensure exceptional accuracy and performance.

MACHINED RECESSED AREA

Brunswick tables have details you just won’t find on other tables such as a recessed area machined into the rail where the rail cloth can be stapled securely many times over. We purposely recess the area so the staples or cloth do not interfere in any way with the rail attachment to the slate.

STABLE JOINERY CONSTRUCTION

Brunswick uses fine furniture joinery techniques in the construction of all solid hardwood products. These joinery techniques such as panels glued together with alternating grain patterns, create a stronger, more stable furniture construction that will provide flawless performance year after year.

SOLID WOOD DOVETAIL SUPPORT

Thick solid wood cross supports utilize dovetail joinery to connect the table frame at each slate joint. With this construction the cross supports become an integral part of the table frame and achieve superior performance by supporting the slate joints as if the slate was one piece.

ROCK-SOLID AND READY TO INSTALL

Brunswick tables come ready to assemble. We utilize machine nut and bolt construction and galvanized steel leg-plates to achieve a rock solid fine furniture product that is easy to deliver and install in homes.

KILN-DRIED, STAINED, AND SEALED

Brunswick’s goal is to provide our customers with a product that will last a lifetime. All solid wood materials are kiln-dried to a 6-8% moisture level, then stained and sealed to keep moisture out. A multi step durable fine furniture finish completes the look of each Brunswick product, making it worthy of being passed on from generation to generation.

BRUNSWICK CERTIFIED SLATE

Brunswick slate must pass rigid quality requirements before it receives a “Brunswick Certified” sticker. Brunswick slate is diamond-honed and precision-machined and leveled to within ten thousandths of an inch. Brunswick slate is cured for an extended period of time to assure stability and is checked for flatness on the top and on the bottom at least four times through the machining and curing process to a standard twice exceeding BCA specifications on an end-to-end basis. Every set of Brunswick slate is quality inspected and certified and will provide a lifetime of playability.
