Amazon sells square cue tips for about $5 each. I used sandpaper and metal files to form the tip. It shaped fine with a Last4Ever tool. It appears to be some kind of layered ceramic material. A knife could scrape rather than cut the surface. The square tip barely scratched a phenolic resin cue tip. This tip is hard.
It has yellow top and bottom layers. Layers inside are white, brown, and reddish brown. Shaping the tip exposed the brown layers and polishing the tip made the surface show brown rings.
I used a cue stick with the yellow tip on it and hit nearly the same spot on a ball many times. Other hits to the ball using other cue sticks and tips had not affected the surface. Photo below shows that the yellow tip caused barely visible smudges caused by the cue tip. This is not chipping but is an effect not found using other cue tips. I imagine this damage could worsen with more cue-tip use. I miscued a lot using the yellow cue tip.
The square tips are sold as 15mm Cue Tip Replacement Kit for Pool Players, 3 Pcs by the no-vowel vendor, Lljsszr. Lljsszr sells many sporting goods and only a few billiard parts.
The company’s description is weird claiming it fits cues “perfectly”; its easy to install; that you could replace a cue tip during a game. It fairly enough claims the tip is small, light, easy to carry and store.
The tip would be good on a broom stick or to tip a $20 cue that Indians would still be able to play great with.
