FAQs
Are these darts suitable for beginners?
While high-quality, the 24g weight is on the heavier side. Beginners may prefer them if they have a strong throwing style, but many prefer 20g-22g to start.
What is the material of the barrel?
These darts are crafted from high-density tungsten, which allows for a heavier weight in a thinner barrel profile.
Can I replace the shafts and flights?
Yes, these darts use standard threading, making them compatible with most aftermarket shafts and flight shapes.
Do these darts come with a carrying case?
No, this set includes the three darts, shafts, and flights, but it does not come with a dedicated carrying case.
How often should I sharpen the points?
Sharpen as needed when you notice the point becoming dull or developing burrs that might damage the dartboard's sisal fibers.
Is the black finish durable?
The black coating is durable but may show signs of wear over time, especially in areas where the darts impact each other frequently.
Troubleshooting
Darts are wobbling during flight
Check that the shafts and flights are securely attached and that the flight wings are at a 90-degree angle.
Shafts frequently coming loose
Apply a small amount of O-ring rubber washers between the shaft and the barrel to increase tension.
Dart bounces out of the board
Ensure your points are properly sharpened and not burred; if worn, use a professional dart sharpener to maintain a clean point.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Winmau Blackout darts, securely screw the included shafts into the barrel, ensuring they are tightened firmly but not overtightened to avoid damaging the thread. Slide the flights into the shaft slits; if the flights are loose, use a flight punch tool to secure them. For maintenance, keep the tungsten barrels clean by wiping them with a dry, lint-free cloth after each use to remove sweat and debris. If you notice a loss in grip texture over time, a soft brass brush can be used to clear dust from the barrel grooves. Always store your darts in a protective case when not in use to prevent damage to the points or flight edges.
