Product description

About this product

Twelve steel tip darts with sharpening tools included – four players with three darts each, in a mix of finishes across the set, so each player can take three darts they recognise as theirs.

A twelve-dart kit is what a household, an office or a bar actually needs, as opposed to what a single player buys. Nobody is sharing, nobody is waiting for the previous player to pull their darts out, and when one goes behind a cupboard it is not the end of the game.

The sharpening tools are a more useful inclusion than they look. Steel points pick up burrs and flat spots every time they strike a wire, and those defects make darts skid off the wire and bounce out. Ten or fifteen seconds with a stone restores a smooth, slightly rounded tip. What you must never do is grind a point to a needle – that increases bounce-outs rather than reducing them, and it cuts the sisal fibres in your board instead of parting them, which puts permanent holes in a surface that would otherwise self-heal for years.

Steel tip means a sisal bristle board. These will damage an electronic board.

One note on the specification: we have not been able to verify a published weight for this kit – candidates in this category run at 20 g and 24 g, and those throw quite differently. Ask us and we will check the stock before you order.

Questions

Good to know

Who is a twelve-dart kit for?

Households, offices, bars, clubs - anywhere more than one person plays. Four players with three darts each means nobody shares and nobody waits, and a lost dart is not the end of the evening.

How should I sharpen a steel tip?

You are conditioning the point, not making it pointy. Roll the tip on the stone at a shallow angle, turning the dart as you go, until the burrs and flat spots from hitting wires are gone - ten or fifteen seconds is plenty. Leave it smooth and slightly rounded. A needle point is worse in every way: it skids off wires and bounces out, and it cuts sisal fibres instead of parting them, which puts permanent holes in the board.

What weight are these darts?

We have not been able to verify a published figure, and kits in this category come at both 20 g and 24 g - which throw quite differently. Ask us and we will check the actual stock before you order.

Steel tip or soft tip - which do I need?

Steel tip darts have a metal point and go into a sisal bristle board. Soft tip darts have a flexible plastic point and go into an electronic board. Never throw steel tips at an electronic board: the point punches through the plastic segments and can wreck the sensors underneath, and that is not repairable. Soft tips on a bristle board simply bounce out.

What is 2BA, and will these parts fit my darts?

2BA is the standard dart thread - 4.7 mm major diameter - and virtually every modern barrel, shaft and point uses it. The older alternative is a 1/4 inch thread, noticeably fatter and coarser, found on some cheap brass and house darts. They are not interchangeable and forcing one into the other strips the thread. Flights are not threaded at all, so any standard-shape flight fits any standard-shape shaft.

How do I set the board up correctly?

The bullseye goes 1.73 m from the floor, and the throwing line sits 2.37 m horizontally from the face of the board - measured to the board face, not the wall, because a board with a surround stands proud of it. Cross-check with the diagonal: 2.93 m from the centre of the bull to the back of the oche. If the diagonal does not match, one of your other two measurements is wrong.

How do I make a dartboard last?

Rotate the number ring every few weeks so the 20, 19 and treble beds do not take all the wear. Keep the points conditioned but never needle-sharp. Do not soak the board or hang it in direct sun or driving rain - humidity swells sisal and sun dries it out, and both shorten its life. Pull darts out straight rather than levering them.

Do you deliver in Dar es Salaam?

Yes. We deliver across Dar es Salaam and send nationwide to Arusha, Moshi, Mwanza, Dodoma, Zanzibar and beyond by courier. Call or WhatsApp us if you need a same-day drop in the city.
