Thomas Edison was famously quoted as saying \u201cThere is a better way to do it. Find it.\u201d The craftsmen at Viking went to work to do just that. Every aspect of the qualities that make a great playing billiards shaft were closely evaluated, broken down and applied to the design of the Siege Carbon Fiber Performance Shaft by Viking. The Siege shaft represents the next technological leap forward in billiards performance giving you, the player, the best playing and best feeling shaft on the market today.<\/p>\n

A NEW Spin on Carbon Fiber Shafts<\/strong>
\nUntil now, the billiard industry has relied on a carbon fiber shaft construction process of wrapping thin sheets of resin pre-impregnated carbon fiber around a steel form and overlapping the individual sheets as the diameter and taper of the shaft varies. This process of overlapping the sheets leaves undesired variations in wall thickness and stiffness and introduces radial inconsistencies over the length of the shaft in addition to requiring a final sanding process to create a smooth, even surface.
\nViking is taking a step in an entirely different direction. The carbon fiber process used to create the Viking Siege Pure Performance Shaft allows the carbon fiber and resin to be wound on the shaft structure in a single, continuous process weaving the fiber and applying resin simultaneously. Because sheet overlaps have been eliminated with this process, the end result is a more uniform structure with increased radial consistency and a smooth, sealed, un-sanded outer
\nsurface that stays cleaner and glides smoothly across your skin.<\/p>\n

SIMPLY BETTER. BETTER BALANCE AND BETTER FEEL.<\/strong>
\nWhen it comes to feel, the engineers at Viking chose a new approach to create a balanced shaft with improved sound characteristics and significantly reduced vibration. The Viking Siege shaft utilizes a new vibration dampening system that allows us to introduce mass over the length of the shaft. This new process not only significantly reduces the vibration found in most Carbon Fiber shafts but also provides a balanced, natural feel unmatched in the industry yet still efficiently transferring wicked energy to the cue ball.<\/p>\n

The Viking Siege is available in 12.25, 12.5 and 12.75mm tip sizes and is available in most common joint styles available in the market.<\/p>\n

Indestructible Ferrule<\/strong>
\nViking has developed a specially-formulated, high\u2011impact\u00a0resin SUPER ferrule that is not just reactive, but simply\u00a0indestructible.<\/p>\n

All-In Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

From tip to joint, all components within the Siege are\u00a0designed to function as one. Whether you are a pro, amateur,\u00a0or somewhere in between, the Siege will take your game to a higher level.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Specifications:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nCare of Your Siege Shaft<\/p>\n

The first step in protecting your shaft is registering the shaft at Vikingcue.com within the first 30 days of ownership to be eligible for its limited lifetime warranty. Specific warranty information can be found at vikingcue.com\/warranty.<\/p>\n

Cleaning of Your Siege Shaft<\/strong><\/p>\n

The surface of the Siege shaft has been engineered to be sealed from the outside elements. Although it is sealed, soils may build up on the surface of the shaft.<\/p>\n

Day to Day maintenance can be performed with a soft, clean, debris free cloth lightly applied to the surface of the shaft to remove any residue followed by wiping with a soft, clean damp rag.
\nWhen a deeper clean is desired, Isopropyl alcohol wipes can be used. If wipes are not available, substituting a soft, clean, debris free cloth with a few drops of Isopropyl Alcohol (70%) will be effective.<\/p>\n

Care of Your Siege Shaft<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under no circumstances can the Siege shaft be sanded or modified. The use of any type of abrasives, in liquid or solid form, will damage the sealed surface of the shaft and void the warranty of the shaft.\u00a0The use of many common shaft treatments is not advised as many contain abrasive compounds that can damage the surface of the shaft.
\nThe finish of the Viking Siege shaft is designed to glide through the hand without the use of additional products. Use of baby powder, hand chalk or talcum powder is not recommended and may cause damage to the surface not covered under the warranty of the shaft.
\nThe diameter of the shaft cannot be modified. Any process to reduce the diameter of the shaft will result in damage the finish of the shaft, weaken the carbon fiber structure and expose raw fiber shaft, release potentially harmful particles into the air and will void the warranty of the shaft.<\/p>\n

Changing the Tip on Your Siege Shaft<\/strong><\/p>\n

The unique design of the Ferrule on the Viking Siege shaft makes it an integral part of the overall structure. Care must be taken not to remove ferrule material when replacing the tip. The removal of excess ferrule material may compromise the structure of the shaft and void shaft warranty.
\nIt is recommended that the shaft be protected from contact with solvents, glue and any abrasives used in the tip replacement process as they may cause permanent damage to the finish of the shaft and may void the shaft warranty.
\nChanging the Ferrule on Your Siege Shaft.<\/p>\n

The Carbon Fiber construction of the Siege shaft and it’s components are subject to specific materials and extremely close tolerances. In the event that the ferrule needs to be repaired or replaced, it must be done so by Viking Cue Manufacturing to maintain the shaft’s warranty.<\/p>\n

Legendary Viking Craftsmanship<\/strong>
\nEvery Siege Carbon Fiber shaft is 100% made in the USA. Since 1965, Viking Cues have been handcrafted by master craftsmen, each with decades of experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
