Atlas do not provide lbm Ferrules?

Did you call them. They have shown out of stock for a while now. If you call and ask they may still have some.
 
i have some with a .250" hole if anyone needs some who doesn't use capped ferrules.
 
Prather just got some in but I think they have sold out already. I just ordered some today and backordered some also. They may be limiting how much each person can buy untill the second shipment makes it in. Give em a call. Chris.

Important note!

The raw material for this product is no longer available. When our stock runs out, the LBM ferrules will no longer be available.

too bad.........:frown:

Leanred that 3 months back when I called John from Atlas, was told that there were actually 5-6 factories located in western coast manufacturing LBM however due to the very small market demand they either halt the production line or shut down the factory.

lukily I found another source and got 100 feets that is ready to ship from states, contact me and I'll be gald to help ;)

PS: Atlas has some "Juma" thing claimed as alternative for LBM, any comments or feedback guys?

Let us know what you think after you've cut some. Thanx Much.
 
I just picked up a small amount of that juma and it looks like it's gonna be on the soft side. Reminds me of Meucchi. Might be made to hit ok.
 
After buying alot of MPI a couple of years ago I watch out for what I buy, My brother started putting together some "cheap" 4 pointers and we are using it up for the joints/buttcaps/ferrules on those cues, I'll always have some around for the players who ask for a softer hitting material, but for our standard ferrules, LBM is it. I do like the "new" micarta masonH has, waiting for some solid rod for capped. But when needing white, solid, firm hitting ferrule material, LBM is the stuff. THat's why I did buy 35ft. Before getting our shipment, we were down to our last 20-30 LBM ferrules, we were talking alot about what would replace it, I just shook my head. Glad they started carring it again.

It's going to be awhile before we cut any up, I found another 20 I had on a shelf. Maybe someone who recently bought some can sound off on how they like it.

It is the nicest ferrule material I have seen in quite some time. It is white with a very fine weave that is almost indiscernable with the naked eye. It cuts like the old Aegis and seems to be very strong. I could not be more pleased.

Good Cuemaking,
