Butterfly Kilpatrick Ping Pong Pool Table Conversion Top 19 - PTMKBL
Butterfly pool table conversion tops are manufactured in the same factory as Butterfly tables. The 3/4 inch wood top is supported by a 1 ½ inch metal rail which is screwed to the underside of the table. The tops are connectable via dove-tail style brackets mounted on each half. This unique feature also acts as the net bracket. Due to this, there is no net adjustment beneath the table. Fits most pool tables.

Maintenance Tips
- Clean 19mm playing surface: Wipe with a soft microfiber cloth to remove dust and chalk residue—maintains smooth, even ball response.
- Avoid harsh chemicals: Use only mild soap or slightly damp cloth to protect the painted finish and factory coating.
- Protect foam backing: Ensure the underside foam stays clean and dry to prevent scratches on the pool table surface and maintain stability.
- Handle in two halves: Always lift and place both panels evenly to avoid stressing edges or the connecting joints.
- Check alignment before play: Ensure both halves sit flush and level on the pool table for consistent bounce and safe gameplay.
- Store flat or upright indoors: Keep in a dry space to prevent warping or moisture damage to the wood core.
- Net set care: Clean the clip-on net system and avoid overtightening to protect mounting points and edges.
- Avoid long-term pressure points: If left installed, ensure even support to prevent sagging in the center over time.
