58" cue length, ~19oz weight, with a 13mm tip diameter is often considered a "standard" cue setup, however, many cue manufacturers will do custom orders. Typical ranges for custom cues are ~56-60", 18-21oz, and 11-14mm.
"House" cues (one piece) come in a variety of sizes with 57" being the most common full size house cue.
Your cue can be anything you want. However, in competition, under World Standardized Rules:
Length of Cue: 40 inches [1.016 m] minimum / No Maximum
Weight of Cue: No minimum / 25 oz. [708.75 gm] maximum
Width of Tip: No minimum / 14mm maximum
There is no average width. A specific cue would have to be measured to come up with an average for a cue.
Cues are only measured by their length and the diameter of their tip. The other measurement of length is the length of the taper on the shaft. The next measurements that are important are the weight and the balance point.
A pool cue usually begins at either 13 or 14 mm at the tip, then tapers back at 6 to 12 inches until it begins to taper into its full width of about 1 3/8 inch at the butt.
The typical pool cue lengths range from 56 to 61 inches. The "correct length" depends on the individual and the pool cue. The important parts of using a pool cue is proper stroke with hand in the proper balance point and sufficeint weight on the bridge hand for stability. This generally means larger people need longer cue lengths and shorter people need shorter cue lengths for this balance. However, your local pool cue professional can balance your cue to fit "better" whether shorter or longer than ideal. Most cues sold are 58 inches long and there are generallyonly 2 preferred balance points from the "factory" - Meucci cues move the balance point slightly from where most cues provide this.
No. The typical snooker cue tips are much smaller than the typical pool cue tips. So, you can fit a pool cue tip to a snooker cue, but not a snooker cue tip on a pool cue.
