Predator 314-3 Shaft Radial

Predator 314-3 Low-Deflection Wood Shaft (Uni-Loc® Radial®)

The Evolution of Low-Deflection Performance. The Pro’s Choice.

Take absolute control of the table with the Predator 314-3 wood shaft—the third generation of the world’s most famous low-deflection spliced shaft. Renowned globally by professionals and competitive players alike, the 314-3 sets the standard for anyone wanting the forgiving accuracy of a low-deflection design while keeping the classic sound, crisp feel, and tactile feedback of natural wood.

The 314-3 features a 12.75 mm tip diameter and the highly stable Pro Taper, providing an incredibly comfortable glide through your bridge hand and an excellent sweet spot for extreme draw, follow, and english. Constructed using Predator’s patented 10-piece spliced maple design, it achieves far greater radial consistency and structural straightness than standard one-piece solid wood shafts.

Equipped with a highly requested Uni-Loc® Radial® joint, this configuration locks down tightly for direct wood-to-wood contact with your cue butt, maximizing physical feedback and delivering a pure, solid strike on every single shot.

Key Features

• 10-Piece Spliced Construction: Crafted from ten separate pieces of premium hard rock maple spliced together. This unique layout eliminates natural variances in the wood, resulting in perfect radial consistency and zero dead spots.

• V-Tek Front-End Technology: Features a high-tech internal core and vaults that drastically reduce the front-end mass of the shaft, minimizing cue ball deflection (squirt) to keep your shots on target.

• V-Tek Fiber Ferrule: Remarkably durable and thin ferrule design that handles heavy impact while improving energy transfer to the tip.

• Predator Pro Taper: A smooth, classic taper that feels comfortable and familiar in the bridge hand, giving you a rock-solid feel through your stroke.

• Uni-Loc® Radial® Pin Fit: Yields a tight, precise wood-to-wood connection for maximum tactile feedback and natural organic acoustics.

• Premium Predator Victory Tip: Factory-equipped with an 8-layer medium Victory tip, engineered for optimal grip, shape retention, and consistent chalk adhesion.
