FAQs
Are these darts suitable for beginners?
Yes, the 22g weight and aggressive grip make these an excellent choice for players looking to improve their accuracy and develop a consistent throwing technique.
Can I use these on electronic dartboards?
No, these are steel tip darts and will damage the sensors and surface of electronic dartboards.
What does the PVD coating do?
The Black PVD coating provides a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that gives the dart a unique, professional look while protecting the underlying metal.
How often should I sharpen the points?
Sharpen your points only when you notice they are becoming blunt or developing burrs; excessive sharpening will shorten the life of your darts.
Are the flights and shafts replaceable?
Yes, these darts use standard threaded shafts and flight slots, making them fully compatible with most universal aftermarket accessories.
Troubleshooting
Dart is bouncing off the board
Check if the board is too dry or hard; rotate the board or ensure your dart points are sharp and free of burrs.
Feeling of inconsistency in release
Clean the barrel grip with a soft brush to remove dust or debris that might be filling the grooves.
Flights are falling out mid-flight
Ensure the flights are pushed securely into the shaft, or consider using flight protectors if they are being damaged by other darts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Winmau Sniper Black darts, ensure they are paired with a high-quality sisal bristle dartboard. Since these are steel tip darts, they are exclusively for use on traditional boards and should never be used on electronic units to avoid permanent damage.
Care instructions:
- Regularly check the points for burrs or blunt tips; use a dart sharpener lightly to maintain penetration.
- Store your darts in a protective case to prevent the barrels from knocking against each other and scratching the PVD coating.
- Wipe the barrels with a dry microfiber cloth after play to remove skin oils and debris, which helps maintain the effectiveness of the grip.
