triangle rack

Pool table frame

A triangle rack is the triangular frame used to arrange billiard balls before a game begins.

The balls are placed inside the rack, positioned tightly together, then the rack is lifted away to leave them in formation: Can you grab the triangle rack? We're about to break.

Also called simply a rack or triangle.
