Hand-Candy and UltraStik
RandyT:
The Hand Candy ball-tops are indeed fully threaded, and are designed to be snug. If they go on easy, that means they come off easy, which has been a big complaint with some of the other balltops. The issue is that not all 6mm shafts are threaded the same way. Some fit tight, and some not so much. We don't ream out the threads because we don't want them to loosen while in use.
If the shaft you are trying to use the Hand Candy balltops on are tight, you can use a 6mm tap to open them up a bit. I don't suggest that you go the full distance of the thread. You want the last few threads to be left tight, so that the ball does not come off during play.
Also, we do not cut the threads. The balls use a threaded insert, specifically designed for this purpose.

Thanks Randy. The more I thought about this, I remembered there was a screw on the bottom of the shaft on the UltraStik's that I can use to keep the thing from rotating. Now, the top fits snug and doesn't come loose. Great design. Thanks!
