The LT04 is the new highlight of the company’s LT Series, reflecting Way Cues' commitment to meticulous craftsmanship and performance enhancement.
The Engine of Accuracy: Hollow-Core Maple
The core of the LT04's performance is its shaft, crafted from premium Canadian Maple. This wood is favored by players for its solid tactile feedback and natural stiffness. However, Way Cues has modernized this tradition by incorporating an innovative hollow-core technology.
This engineering technique strategically removes mass from the shaft's front end, significantly reducing cue ball deflection (squirt) when applying English or sidespin. This low-deflection performance allows players to aim more directly, simplifying complex shots and boosting overall accuracy. The shaft is further optimized with a 12.5 mm diameter, a premium Way Black Ice tip, and a durable Juma ferrule, ensuring consistent contact and energy transfer.

Power and Stability in the Butt
Complementing the precision shaft is a powerfully engineered butt constructed from an intricate 120-piece spliced wood design. This high-level construction provides superior rigidity and stability compared to conventional cues, effectively minimizing energy loss during the stroke. The result is a direct translation into maximum power, allowing for more potent breaks and effortless long-shot execution, along with a remarkably solid feel upon impact.
The butt features an ergonomic taper, ranging from 25.1 mm to 31.5 mm, promoting comfort and a stable grip throughout the game.
The Shark-textured embossed leather grip provides exceptional control.
Control and Aesthetics
The LT04 leaves no detail untouched in its focus on player control. It features a Shark-textured embossed leather grip, which provides an exceptional non-slip hold vital for high-pressure situations, managing moisture effectively for a secure feel. The shaft and butt connect using the industry-trusted Radial joint, ensuring a solid, wood-to-wood contact that transmits clear feedback to the player.
With a standard 1480 mm length and a versatile weight range of 18 – 19.5 oz, the cue is highly maneuverable and balanced.
The distinctive Grey finish sets the LT04 apart, offering an understated elegance that appeals to players seeking a sleek, professional aesthetic. This modern color choice complements the high-performance attributes, making the LT04 a statement of refined taste.
The Way Cues LT04 is positioned as the definitive "Way to Win" for serious players ready to blend classic feel with the undeniable advantages of modern, low-deflection precision.
