FAQs

Can these be used on an electronic dart board?

No, these are steel-tip darts designed exclusively for use on bristle/sisal dart boards. Using them on an electronic board will damage the sensors and the board surface.

What is the weight of the Winmau Kairos 01?

This specific model has a weight of 21 grams, which is a standard weight for competitive steel-tip play.

Are the flights and stems included?

The Winmau Kairos 01 set typically includes the barrels, stems, and flights, though it is always recommended to keep spare flight sets as they are consumables.

How often should I sharpen the points?

Sharpen your points whenever you notice them becoming dull or if you see burrs (hooks) forming on the metal. Do not over-sharpen, as this can damage the board.

Is the grip aggressive?

The grip is designed to be sophisticated and tactile, providing a secure hold without being overly aggressive or uncomfortable for long playing sessions.

Troubleshooting

Darts are 'fishtailing' or wobbling in flight

Ensure your flights are fully opened and not damaged. Check that your stems are tight and consider adjusting your release technique to be smoother.

Darts frequently fall out of the board

The points may have become blunt over time. Use a sharpening stone to restore the tip, which helps the dart penetrate and grip the sisal fibers.

Stem keeps coming loose during play

Use O-rings (rubber washers) between the stem and the barrel to keep the connection secure and prevent loosening due to vibration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent barrel balance for improved accuracy
  • High-quality material construction for long-term durability
  • Sophisticated grip enhances consistency for players
  • Versatile design suitable for multiple throwing styles

Cons

  • Torpedo shape may not suit players preferring ultra-slim barrels
  • Fixed weight may not be suitable for those needing customizable mass
  • Requires proper maintenance of steel tips to prevent board damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Winmau Kairos 01 darts is straightforward. Ensure your flights are fully inserted into the stems and that the stems are tightly screwed into the barrels before your first session.

Compatibility: These are steel-tip darts and are strictly for use with bristle or sisal dart boards. Do not use them on electronic or soft-tip boards, as they will cause damage.

Care Instructions:

  • Regularly inspect the steel points for burrs or bluntness; use a diamond-grit dart sharpener if the points become dull.
  • Keep the darts in a protective case when not in use to prevent the tips from bending.
  • Periodically check the tightness of the stems to the barrel to ensure no wobble occurs mid-flight.
