TABLE CONSTRUCTION
Action tables are primarily made
from exotic African hardwoods. All of our timbers are harvested
under the strictest conservation guidelines from established
hardwood plantations or designated forests. We do not cut virgin
forests or harvest in any endangered habitat areas.
SOLID HARDWOOD RAILS AND SIGHTS
The rails are machined to precise specifications and our sights
are installed in the rails prior to the finish being applied
which results in perfectly smooth sight, unlike many of our
competitors where you can feel the sights protruding or
recessed.
CUSHION RUBBERS
Master Speed BCA approved K-66 profile cushion rubbers are used
on all Action tables. This superior quality cushion rubber
results in one of the liveliest and most accurate rails in the
industry. The cushion rubbers have a thin layer of cotton canvas
on the top and the back of the surface which results in greater
accuracy and control.
We are confident that we have the
best cushion rubbers in the industry that we include them in our
lifetime warranty, unlike many other manufacturers.
ACCURATE NOSE HEIGHT
The accuracy of the rebound is also determined by the nose
height and angle of placement of the cushion rubber. The modern
machinery in the factory precisely controls the placement of the
cushion rubbers to the rail resulting in a uniform nose height
and consistent angle.
RAIL BOLTS
All Action tables have high performing T-nut which are used to
attach the cushion rails to the slate. It is imperative to get a
seamless transition between the rail and the slate as this
provides the necessary strength and rigidity for proper
playability. The T-nut allows the installer to get a greater
torque resulting in a rail that sits perfectly flush to the
slate.
DOME WASHERS
To prevent the rail bolts from loosening over time all Action
tables have dome washers which grips directly in to the slate.
METAL TO METAL CONSTRUCTION
All bolts go directly into threaded metal inserts. The cabinet
is joined together with sturdy metal brackets. This “bolt
together” construction allows for disassembly of the cabinet and
reassembly with no loss of structural integrity.
HEAVY DUTY BRACKETS
Compare the Action table brackets used in the internal
construction of our tables with other manufacturers and you will
be amazed at the durability, strength and weight of the brackets
we use.
MACHINE RECESSED AREA ON RAILS
On the underside of all Action table rails, is a recessed area
where the cloth and the staples nestle which prevents either of
these interfering with the attachment of the slate. Should the
cloth or staples protrude the seamless transition between the
slate and the rail would be compromised.
FINISHING
All Action table are hand stained and finished to enhance the
beauty of the woods that are used. Between each application of
stain the tables are hand sanded using ultra fine grit sanding
pads. The final stage is a minimum of three applications of the
catalyzed lacquer which results in a beautiful durable finish.
Action tables use only stains and
lacquers that meet or exceed all international environmental
standards.
SLATE
All Action tables come with 1” slate. The slate is diamond honed
to perfection to within ten-thousands of an inch and will
provide a lifetime of playability. All of our slate has an
attached framing that the cloth is stapled directly to. This
framing allows for quieter play and professional cloth
installation.
POCKETS
Hand tooled leather pockets in a variety of finishes compliment
all of our traditional style tables. Top quality leather
utilizing the old-fashioned pains-taking tanning and curing
processes will provide years of reliable service. A choice of
fringe or shield pockets in coordinating or contrasting finishes
are available to compliment your table.
The modern style tables use an
internal pocket which is available in either plastic or hard
rubber.
