Yes. Granito cloth developed specifically for 3 cushion is not legal for 8 Ball because it is so fast. Fast cloth also means it is harder to get cue ball action, so pool felt is developed to get the best of both worlds. Simonis is the most common cloth used in the US for pool tables giving speed and cue ball control, and of course Granito makes cloth that is legal for pool as well. There are a few other manufacturers of pool felt, and each pool felt has different characteristics, so it is chosen not just for speed and cue ball control, but also to last for a long time. Those 3 factors have to be balanced for what you want the most when you choose pool table felt.
