      Understanding Shuffleboard Pucks: Weights, Discs, and What Makes Them Essential

      Shuffleboard pucks—also called weights or discs—are the sliding game pieces that glide across your table's maple playboard. Whether you're outfitting a new table or replacing worn pucks, understanding the differences in size, weight, and material helps you choose the right set for your game.

      Standard Sizes and Weights

      Tournament-grade shuffleboard pucks typically measure 2⅝ inches in diameter and weigh between 11 and 15 ounces, with most players preferring the heavier 13-15 ounce range for better control and momentum. Smaller tables (9-12 feet) often use lighter pucks, while longer tables (14-22 feet) perform best with heavier weights that can travel the full length of the playboard.

      Materials and Construction

      Quality shuffleboard weights are crafted from solid metal—usually steel or a metal alloy—with a smooth, polished finish that glides effortlessly across waxed maple. The flat bottom surface ensures consistent contact with the playboard, while the slightly crowned top provides comfortable grip and control during release.

      Color Coding and Sets

      Pucks come in sets of eight (four per team), traditionally in contrasting colors like red and blue or black and silver. The color coding makes scoring simple and keeps gameplay moving smoothly, especially in competitive matches.

      Maintenance and Longevity

      With proper care, shuffleboard pucks last for years. Wipe them clean after each session to remove wax buildup, and inspect the bottom surfaces periodically for nicks or rough spots that could damage your playboard. Store pucks in a dry location when not in use to prevent oxidation.

      Choosing the Right Pucks for Your Table

      Match your puck weight to your table length and playing style. Heavier pucks offer more stability and are less affected by imperfect releases, while lighter weights allow for more finesse shots and strategic placement. Most serious players keep multiple sets on hand to accommodate different skill levels and playing conditions

      Shuffleboard Pucks FAQ

      2 5/16" size shuffleboard weight is the official size for tournaments and the size you want for a 20-inch-wide board.

      You will need a set of calipers because pucks are rounded, and this 2 5/16 is at the widest point.

      It is between 310 grams and 355 grams with a total height of .75 inches. These weights are with the caps screwed on

      The 2 1/8-inch size is generally used for narrower boards; boards 15 to 18 inches wide use smaller pucks.

      Typically, players have several weights because, when they play at different locations, the boards' finish material, wax, or even climate conditions may vary, and they want different-style bottoms to accommodate those variations.

      Not really, but the most common is a slight point, so the pucks float on the wax. If you put a puck flat on the table, it will rock slightly.

      Not any better; it is just an appearance. They can add a little weight, but our pucks are designed to stay within the tournament specs regardless of the cap.

      The stainless-steel pucks tend not to wear as much as the chrome-plated ones, which can eventually wear down some.
