Dunn's Snooker cue tip compressor, tip shaper, stainless steel made, lasts a life time

A tip compressor is a simple tool that hardens and shapes the leather tip on your snooker cue to your liking. This one is stainless steel with easy handles, designed to work with tips from 8mm to 11mm, and lets you compress as much or as little as you want.

Who it's for

• Players who want to maintain and adjust their cue tips between sharpenings
• Anyone looking for a durable, no-frills pressing tool

Pros

• Stainless steel construction should resist rust
• Works with a useful range of tip sizes
• Includes a Dunn's Super Tip and a bridge for rest play
• Allows you to dial in your preferred tip hardness

Cons

• No information given on jaw width or closing force, so you'll need to confirm with the seller that it fits your cue tip comfortably
• Budget-import design, so longevity will depend on build quality and how it's used

What to check before buying

• Ask the seller to confirm the exact jaw opening and whether it will safely grip tips at both 8mm and 11mm without slipping
• Check whether the included Dunn's Super Tip matches your cue's shank diameter
• Clarify shipping and any return policy in case the tool doesn't suit your needs
