Brunswick Bumper Pool Table Cushion Profile
What is the cushion profile for a Brunswick bumper pool table?
I own the Brunswick 1970s bumper pool table and am replacing a few parts.
I noticed the cushions are dead after 50 years, so I am trying to determine what profile is used so I can replace them. I have attached a photo of a cut cross section. It doesn't quite seem to match any of the common rail profiles.
Can anyone help me identify what material I can buy to replace them?

I'm really curious about this one too. I've never come across that cushion profile before.
I had a look for Brunswick bumper pool tables in the Brunswick Billiards archives. I can see that some of them appear to have a different cushion profile than does yours.
Here's their Brunswick "Townhouse" bumper pool table model, made and sold between 1970 and 1980, and I don't see the same ridge as I see on yours.

I figured it out! My local billiards store found it was a 50-year shrunken centennial cushion profile.
Having it replaced now!

Glad you got it sorted out!
I wonder if those would be referred to as the U56 cushions?
I keep seeing those mentioned as replacements for the proprietary Brunswick Centennial cushions.

Hi, I also have a Brunswick Town house table and was interested to find out the cushion profile. If you could message the exact specifications that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
