If you can one for sale or direct me to the right place I'd appreciate it. Otherwise, I guess I'd contact Mike Bender.

rackem said:Unfortunately I don't own either. But I do sell JPs. Let me get this straight. If the Omega is 3/8by14. Then,they are not the same as a SW?![]()
What does 3/8 by 11 fit?
Also I think the import replicas of "whatever", the ones with brass pins are 3/8 by 12
Jazz said:3/8x11 fit "SW" threads .. that is generally cues with with 11 threads per inch .. 3/8x14 implie there are 14 threads per inch. I only know Bender as the cuemaker who use 3/8x14 thread.
Thanks for the offer but I'm sure Mr. Webb will make the right JPs for me. He is also generous enough to make me 5/16x14 ACME JPs .. they are different from standard 5/16x14s as they have a thicker threads ... so make different joints out there ...
Same here,Jazz said:I'm going to sound like a snob ... but I have no idea about cuetec threads.

Other then they are 3/8 by 14, Which I always thought was more like a plumbing fitting. That's what threw me, when you told that Omega has the same thread
Gosh maybe you can get an SST shaft for your Omega![]()

vgodley1 said:Hi, I just got a bender from Roy at Indy Q. He had the joint protectors in stock if it doesn't work out with Mr. Webb. They are plain though.
Michael Webb said:Omega's and Benders are 3/8X14. Cutecs are .355X14 The pitch on the thread is different between the two.
Jazz said:Nick,
I hae 3 Omega/DPKs and two fancy Benders in my collection so I think I'm pretty sure what pins are in them. I didn't know you collect Omega/DPKs too????
Only cuemaker I know that use 3/8x12 as "standard" is Ernie Martinez although I have a fancy Tad with 3/8x12 thread as well.
Thanks for the bump!!!
