What You Get: Bed Cloth + 6 Pre-Cut Rails Explained
When you order the 7 ft Simonis 760 in Simonis Green™, you receive a complete installation kit: one full bed cloth sized for a 7 ft table (78" width standard) plus six individually pre-cut rail cloths. That is everything you need to recover your table, with no additional cutting required.
The six rail cloths correspond to the six distinct rail sections on a standard 7 ft pool table: two long rails and four short rails. Each piece is precision-cut to match the tight worsted weave of the 760, preserving the cloth's integrity from edge to edge.
This matters more than most buyers realize. Cutting Simonis 760 yourself risks fraying the worsted fibers, misaligning the nap-free grain, and compromising installation quality. Some competitors sell Simonis 760 without pre-cut rails, then charge extra for a cutting service. With this kit, you skip that cost entirely and eliminate the risk of a botched cut.
The 78" width is the correct standard for 7 ft pool table installations, so there is no guesswork about whether the cloth will fit your playing surface. Because Billiard City is an authorized Iwan Simonis dealer, every bolt we ship is sourced directly from the manufacturer and backed by full factory support.
Simonis Green™: Why This Color Is Different From Every Other Green
Simonis Green™ is not "dark green," "tournament green," or "English green." It is a proprietary, trademarked color developed and controlled by Iwan Simonis as part of their brand identity. Every bolt of Simonis Green™ is manufactured to the same precise color specification, producing a consistent, repeatable appearance that generic greens simply cannot match.
This distinction matters at the point of purchase. Buyers who order a generic "dark green" from non-Simonis brands often receive cloth that varies from batch to batch, resulting in a table that looks nothing like the signature Simonis tables they admire. Simonis Green™ eliminates that gamble.
The color is available across all five table sizes (7, 8, 9, 10, and 12 ft) and anchors the full 15-color Simonis 760 lineup. It has appeared on professional and tournament tables worldwide for decades, giving it a visual authority rooted in championship heritage. When you see that specific shade of green on a competition table, you are almost certainly looking at Simonis Green™.
The Simonis 760 Cloth: Specs That Actually Matter for Your Game
The Simonis 760 is composed of 70% worsted wool and 30% nylon, weighing approximately ±355 g/m² (about 22 oz per linear yard). Those numbers tell a specific story about how this cloth performs on your table.
"Worsted" means the wool fibers are combed parallel before weaving. The result is a smooth, nap-free surface that eliminates the directional bias found in cheaper napped cloths. Balls roll true in every direction, regardless of where you are shooting from. The cloth will not pill, fluff, or shed over time, and routine maintenance is significantly easier than with traditional felts.
Speed is where the 760 separates itself from the rest of the Simonis pool range. It runs 10 to 15% faster than the Simonis 860, thanks to its higher nylon content (30% versus 10%) and lighter weave weight. For players who want the ball to respond precisely to their stroke, that speed difference is immediately noticeable.
A common question in the community: is the 760 "too fast" for a 7 ft table? The short answer is no. Seven-foot bar-box tables are actually where speed-demanding games like Bank Pool, Straight Pool, and One-Pocket are most commonly played. The 760's speed profile is a natural match for these disciplines. On a smaller playing surface, precise ball control at higher speeds rewards skilled shot-making rather than punishing it.
Every bolt of Simonis cloth goes through a rigorous 13-step manufacturing process before it leaves the factory. That level of quality control is built into every square inch of material you install on your table.
Why Iwan Simonis Is the Only Name That Matters in Billiard Cloth
Iwan Simonis has been manufacturing billiard cloth in Verviers, Belgium since 1680, over 340 years of continuous production, predating the founding of the United States by nearly a century. It is the oldest company in the billiard industry and the only textile mill in the world dedicated exclusively to cue sports cloth for pool, billiards, carom, and pyramid.
In 2012, Iwan Simonis S.A. acquired Saluc S.A., the maker of Aramith billiard balls. That merger united the two leading Belgian cue sports brands under one group, a detail that resonates with Billiard City customers who pair their Simonis cloth with Aramith ball sets. Four years later, in 2016, Simonis acquired the Strachan Mill in Gloucestershire, England, home of the legendary Strachan 6811 snooker cloth. Together, these acquisitions positioned Simonis as a full cue-sports ecosystem brand.
Simonis cloth is exported to more than 90 countries across every continent, and in 2025 alone, the WPA reported over 2,100 athletes competing across 76 international sanctioned events, many of them on Simonis-covered tables. The 2021 floods in Verviers damaged the Simonis factory, but the company rebuilt and resumed production, a resilience story that underscores why supply-conscious buyers should purchase from verified authorized dealers who maintain direct sourcing relationships.
Is the 7 ft Simonis 760 Right for Your Table and Your Game?
Before ordering, confirm your table's exact rail dimensions. Seven-foot tables come in standard bar-box configurations and home-use variants, and there can be subtle sizing differences between manufacturers (Diamond Brand 7 ft tables, for example, may differ slightly from other brands). Pre-cut rails are sized to standard specifications, so verifying your table's measurements ensures a proper fit.
The 760's speed profile is ideal for games that reward precision at pace. Bank Pool requires accurate angle play where faster cloth produces cleaner, more predictable rebounds. Straight Pool benefits from consistent ball roll across the entire surface. One-Pocket demands controlled speed management, and the 760's responsiveness gives skilled players finer control over position play.
If you prefer a slower, more forgiving surface, the Simonis 860 may be a better fit. Its 10% nylon content and heavier weave produce a cloth that is gentler on beginners and well-suited for casual recreational play on a home table.
The home game room upgrade trend is real. Roughly 27% of global billiards table demand is now tied to residential installations, and the American pool table market is projected to grow at a 7.4% CAGR through 2032. The 7 ft home table is the fastest-growing segment, and the 760 is the cloth serious home players are choosing when they want tournament-grade performance in their own space. With over 50 million Americans playing pool recreationally, most have never experienced what a true worsted cloth feels like. The 760 is an accessible upgrade, not an elite luxury.
