Billiard Table Pockets
Billiard
pockets are usually made of durahyde, plastic, vinyl or leather
and almost always is a replaceable item on your pool table. Billiard pockets
need to be strong and securely fastened to the table. The Pockets must
be strong enough to hold the weight of at least 5 or 6 pool balls and
cushion the balls enough so that the pool balls don't bounce back up onto
the table as new pool balls are shot down. Leather billiard
pockets are usually hand sewn into an iron core and are available in several
different styles and colors to match your existing pockets of
your pool table.
