They have been using them for years. I have only seen one bent and I think the guy dropped it.

ALL WERE FINE...
If you looking at OLNEY-
HIS CUES ARE VERY WELL-MADE- I wouldn't hesitate if that's what you want
Do a search for OLNEY-
Only read positive comments about Jeffs cues...

There is nothing inherently wrong with it. It is more common on Chinese imports. But some great makers have used it as well.

My '68 Joss is 18 thread.....the joint is original and has seen a lot of use.
,,had a Gina and a Tad....18 thread was good enough for those icons.

Aluminum joint?...I don't like the idea....even if it is hardened...
...as an insert to screw into, I think it is great...gives a softer hit.

I have a couple of cues with this joint, 5/16x18 and never had an issue.

The joint screw on most Meucci and Tad cues is 5/16 x 18.
