The Official 8 Pool Ball Set – Super Aramith Pro-Cup (Blue/Yellow)
Official Professional English Pool Ball Set with Super Aramith Pro Phenolic Resin and 6-Red-Dot Pro-Cup Cue Ball
The Official 8 Pool Ball Set – Super Aramith Pro-Cup (Blue/Yellow) is the official premium tournament ball set developed by Aramith, the world-renowned billiard ball manufacturer produced by Saluc S.A. in Belgium.
Designed specifically for English Pool (Blackball), this professional-grade set combines Aramith’s proprietary Super Aramith Pro Phenolic Resin, exceptional manufacturing precision, and the iconic 6-red-dot Pro-Cup cue ball to deliver the highest level of consistency, durability, and performance.
Unlike traditional English Pool sets that use red and yellow object balls, this official version features blue and yellow object balls, providing significantly improved visibility under modern LED lighting and television broadcasting. The enhanced color contrast makes it easier for players, referees, spectators, and cameras to distinguish ball groups during professional competition.
Manufactured under strict tournament tolerances, every ball is carefully controlled for diameter, weight, balance, density, polish, and rebound characteristics. The result is a ball set trusted by professional clubs, national associations, international tournaments, coaching academies, and serious players around the world.
The set consists of:
- 7 Blue Object Balls
- 7 Yellow Object Balls
- 1 Black 8 Ball
- 1 Super Aramith Pro-Cup Cue Ball
The object balls measure approximately 50.8 mm (2″), while the cue ball measures approximately 47.6 mm (1 7/8″), making the set compatible with many coin-operated English Pool tables while maintaining official tournament playing characteristics.
Designed for professional English Pool, league competition, coaching, and premium club environments, the Official Super Aramith Pro-Cup Blue/Yellow set represents one of the highest standards available in modern Blackball equipment.

The professional configuration includes:
- Seven blue object balls
- Seven yellow object balls
- One black 8 ball
- One Pro-Cup cue ball
This format supports official tournament play while improving visual recognition for players and audiences.
What Is English Pool?
English Pool is one of the most popular cue sports in the United Kingdom and many parts of Europe.
The discipline is typically played on:
- 6 ft tables
- 7 ft tables
- Selected 8 ft competition tables
Unlike American Pool, English Pool uses colored object-ball groups instead of numbered solids and stripes.
Professional English Pool emphasizes:
- Tactical play
- Positional precision
- Safety exchanges
- Controlled break building
- Fine cue-ball control
- Strategic planning
Blue and Yellow Ball Configuration
Instead of the traditional red-and-yellow format, this official tournament edition uses blue and yellow object balls.
The blue color provides improved contrast against:
- Yellow balls
- Green cloth
- Blue tournament cloth
- Grey competition cloth
- Television lighting
- LED arena lighting
The result is easier ball recognition for both players and spectators.
Why Blue Instead of Red?
The blue-and-yellow format was introduced to improve visibility during modern tournament play.
Potential advantages include:
- Better television presentation
- Increased spectator visibility
- Improved referee recognition
- Easier pattern identification
- Stronger color contrast
- More professional event presentation
The change affects only appearance and does not alter the rules of English Pool.
Complete 16-Ball Configuration
The official set includes:
| Ball Type | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Blue Object Balls | 7 |
| Yellow Object Balls | 7 |
| Black 8 Ball | 1 |
| Pro-Cup Cue Ball | 1 |
| Total | 16 |
The complete set is ready for official English Pool competition.
Professional 50.8 mm Object Balls
The object balls measure approximately 50.8 mm (2 inches).
This diameter is widely recognized as the standard for professional English Pool.
Benefits include:
- Authentic Blackball playing characteristics
- Proper pocket compatibility
- Accurate cushion response
- Compact tactical play
- Professional table speed
The 50.8 mm size is specifically designed for English Pool tables and should not be confused with American Pool balls.
Professional 47.6 mm Cue Ball
The supplied cue ball measures approximately 47.6 mm (1 7/8 inches).
This smaller cue ball is commonly used on many coin-operated English Pool tables, allowing the internal return mechanism to separate the cue ball from the object balls.
Benefits include:
- Coin-table compatibility
- Reliable ball return
- Professional English Pool response
- Consistent table operation
Users should confirm compatibility with their specific table before purchase.
Super Aramith Pro-Cup Cue Ball
One of the defining features of this set is the Super Aramith Pro-Cup Cue Ball.
The cue ball features six red reference dots, making cue-ball rotation clearly visible during play.
This technology is widely used in professional competition, coaching, and televised events.
Benefits of the Six Red Dots
The six-dot design allows players to observe:
- Topspin
- Backspin
- Side spin

- Superior scratch resistance

This material has become the benchmark for professional billiard balls worldwide.
Why Phenolic Resin Matters

- Friction damage
- Loss of polish

The result is consistent performance over many years of commercial use.

| Shape Stability | Excellent | Good |
