Introduction to dart barrel

A good dart should have a complete dart needle, darts barrel, dart rod and dart wing, with full hand feel, stable center of gravity and good command of flight line. The dart barrel is the part that people hold when throwing darts, and it is also the most important part of darts. At present, the most popular and standard dart barrel is tungsten alloy dart barrel, and tungsten alloy dart rod is the blank mold for making steel tip darts barrel, that is, unprocessed dart barrel.

At present, there are mainly these kinds of darts on the market:

Brass dart barrel: the dart barrel is made of copper. Compared with other metal darts, such as nickel silver darts and tungsten alloy darts, brass darts are obviously characterized by the lightest weight. Each copper dart weighs between 16 and 20 grams. Copper is an extremely soft alloy. It is made of brass and metal zinc. Since copper is one of the lightest metals, it is easy to be made into various shapes. Copper is relatively cheap and easy to process. Unfortunately, the copper is too soft, and the dart barrel is easy to dim and wear, which makes the “feeling” of the dart taste bad. Because of its low cost, copper darts are often used as “indoor darts”.

Nickel alloy dart barrel: This is another kind of dart barrel with lighter weight. It is made of alloy composed of nickel, copper and zinc. It is silver white, easy to produce and cheap.

Tungsten alloy dart barrel: it is made of tungsten nickel alloy, and the alloy proportion ranges from 70% — 97%. Tungsten alloy dart has heavy weight, high density, good aerodynamic effect and durability. The volume (thickness) of tungsten alloy darts flights with the same weight is much smaller than that of other darts. This advantage makes tungsten alloy darts more likely to be thrown in the same high zone. Most professional players use tungsten darts.
