STRATOS: LAMINATED SHAFTS SINCE 1965

 

THE CONCEPT OF STRATOS

Wood classic shafts are heavily anisotropic and release uncontrollable forces during hit.

Renzo Longoni in the late sixties deeply analyzed the problem coming to the conclusion that nature has to be recreated. He decided to cut slices of wood, select them by weight, straight veneer and quality to recreate a perfect shaft using just best pieces. Laminated shaft was born and patented in 1985.

 

JBR2 FERRULE, G10 CORE AND LD TECHNOLOGY

Improving constantly the quality of the game is one of the primary goals of the Longoni team.

To guarantee the maximum gaming performance of the Longoni shafts, a lot of work has been done on their frontal part introducing the new JBR2 ferrules by Longoni with high-density G10 support and a proprietary system to reduce deflection, improving acoustics.

 

VIBES-FOAM

In order to improve the balance and acoustic, in all laminated shafts close to the joint area, a long hole filled with a special foam was created. This material compensates density, absorbs vibrations and improves the balance.

 

STRATOS SHAFT: PRECISION AND TRACEABILITY

Each Stratos shaft has a unique serial number that allows tracing the production date.

S30 is the world's first shaft with an innovative structure composed of 10 slices of Quebec hard rock maple and 10 slices of European hornbeam. It has a higher density and solidity than S20: precision and determination.

Longoni company uses for its shafts only the best hard rock maple from Quebec (Canada) and the whitest European hornbeam, where extremely low temperatures, sunlight, and ground provide the best quality of wood for the billiard game. The processing cycle of each shaft lasts for at least 24 months.

All Longoni shafts are covered by a warranty for two years against manufacturing defects on parts such as joint, ferrule, and ferrule sticking. Each shaft is controlled before the shipment to be perfectly straight and to comply with the strictest requirements of the customers.
