Dyna|spheres® Pool Tungsten 572 – Phenolic Resin Balls

The Tungsten 572 is a full 16-ball American pool set from the Dynaspheres Pool Pro Series, manufactured from phenolic resin and built to the tolerances that professional and commercial play requires. The 572 designation refers to the ball diameter: 57.2mm, the American pool standard used on full-size tables in pubs, clubs, arcades, and leisure venues across the UK and internationally. As part of the Pro Series, the Tungsten 572 sits at the top of the Dynaspheres range for American pool, engineered to a hardness of 59 Rockwell minimum and a roundness tolerance of 0.03mm or less. These are not entry-level figures. They represent the specification that operators need when equipment is expected to perform through thousands of games without degrading in response, appearance, or consistency. E-Service (Europe) Ltd is the official UK distributor for Dynaspheres.

The Tungsten 572 ships as a complete 16-ball set: 8 solid balls including the 8-ball, 7 striped balls, and 1 cue ball. A cleaning cloth is included as standard. The cue ball carries 2 black triangle markings. Unlike the dot markings used on other Dynaspheres cue balls, the triangle format provides a distinct visual reference for reading spin and rotation. The sharp geometry of a triangle makes the direction of rotation easier to track at a glance, particularly on fast shots where a smaller or rounder marking can be harder to follow. For players, coaches, and referees working at pace, the triangle marking gives an immediate and unambiguous read on what the cue ball is doing from the moment of contact.

The Tungsten 572 is built from phenolic resin, the material standard for professional and commercial pool balls, chosen for its hardness, impact resistance, and dimensional stability under sustained heavy use. Hardness is rated at 59 Rockwell minimum, which means the surface resists chipping, crazing, and wear under the intensive daily conditions of commercial venues far more effectively than lower-specification alternatives. Roundness is held to 0.03mm maximum deviation, ensuring each ball rolls true and responds predictably to cue contact. Weight is 169g with a tolerance of plus or minus 1.0g, keeping the set balanced and consistent across all 16 balls. Density is 1.73, giving the Tungsten 572 the weight, feel, and contact sound that players associate with a quality ball.

8 x solid balls (57.2mm, including the 8-ball), 7 x striped balls (57.2mm), 1 x cue ball (57.2mm, 2 black triangles), 1 x cleaning cloth. Total: 16 balls plus cleaning cloth.

The Tungsten 572 is manufactured to 57.2mm, the American pool standard. This format is not compatible with English pool tables, which use 50.8mm balls, or with continental and European pool tables, which use 52.4mm balls. Using 57.2mm balls on a table designed for a smaller format will affect play and may cause equipment damage. Operators should confirm their table format before ordering. If you are unsure of your table specification, contact E-Service before placing an order.
