FAQs
Are these darts suitable for beginners?
While anyone can use them, the aggressive grip is generally preferred by experienced players who have developed a consistent throwing technique.
Can I use these on a magnetic dartboard?
No. These are professional steel tip darts and must only be used on sisal/bristle dartboards.
Does the 22g weight include the shaft and flight?
In professional darts, the weight specified usually refers to the barrel only, providing the base mass for your setup.
How often should I replace the tips?
Steel points are durable, but if they become blunt or hooked at the end, they should be replaced using a professional repointing tool.
Why is the barrel finish called 'atomised'?
The atomised finish refers to a fine, bead-blasted surface treatment that softens the metallic look while adding extra surface friction.
Troubleshooting
Excessive bounce-outs occurring upon impact
Check your throw angle to ensure the dart is hitting the board at a perpendicular or slightly upward trajectory; if the issue persists, ensure your dartboard is not overly dry.
Grip feels less effective over time
Grip surface is likely clogged with debris; use a non-metallic brush to clear out the Cluster-Grip grooves.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior tactile feedback due to Cluster-Grip
- Excellent balance and flight consistency at 22g
- Durable construction with an attractive atomised finish
- High-friction grip prevents unintended slipping during release
Cons
- The aggressive grip texture may cause fatigue during long practice sessions
- Not ideal for players who prefer a smooth, frictionless barrel
- Requires specific maintenance to prevent dust accumulation in the grip grooves
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, pair these steel tip darts with high-quality sisal dartboards. Avoid throwing these darts at electronic or plastic-faced boards, as the steel points will cause permanent damage. For maintenance, periodically brush the barrels with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust or lint trapped in the Cluster-Grip grooves; failing to do so will eventually reduce the effectiveness of the grip. Regularly check the condition of your flights and shafts, replacing them as soon as they show signs of wear, such as fraying or bending, to maintain the dart's center of gravity.
