FAQs
Are these darts suitable for beginners?
While beginners can use them, the 24g weight and aggressive grip are generally preferred by players who have already developed a consistent throwing technique.
Can I use these on my plastic-tip dartboard?
No. These are steel tip darts and are designed specifically for sisal/bristle boards. Using them on a plastic board will cause permanent damage to the machine.
How do I maintain the Hex-Tech grip?
Regular cleaning with a soft-bristled brush will prevent sweat and chalk from filling the precision grooves.
What is the primary benefit of the 24g weight?
The heavier 24g weight provides a more stable flight path and increased kinetic energy, which helps the dart pierce the board more deeply.
Are the points replaceable?
The points are factory-fitted. Replacing them requires specialized repointing tools and should be handled by experienced users or professionals.
Troubleshooting
Dart frequently bounces out of the board
Ensure the points are properly sharpened and not rounded off. Verify the board is not overly compressed by rotating it periodically.
Barrel grip feels slippery during play
Clean the barrel with a soft brush and a small amount of warm soapy water to remove accumulated skin oils or debris.
Inconsistent flight trajectory
Check that all three stems and flights are identical in length and shape. Replace any flight that is bent or torn.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Epix darts, ensure they are used exclusively with regulation sisal (bristle) dartboards. Avoid throwing at concrete or hard surfaces, as this will blunt the steel points. If the points become dull over time, use a high-quality diamond dart sharpener to restore the taper, being careful not to remove too much metal. Keep the barrel clean by wiping it with a dry microfiber cloth to remove chalk or skin oils that can clog the Hex-Tech grip patterns. Regularly inspect your flights and stems for damage; even minor nicks or bends can alter the flight path, so replace them as soon as wear becomes visible.
