90% Tungsten Darts

90% Tungsten Darts

90% tungsten darts are one of the most popular choices for professional and recreational darts players. They’re a great combination of affordability and premium quality.

90% tungsten darts come in a wide variety of barrel shapes, including bomb barrel darts, torpedo darts like the ones used by Scott Williams, and tapered barrel darts like the ones used by Jonny Clayton. Tungsten’s density is so high that manufacturers can make barrels thinner and maintain the same weight. Many 90% tungsten darts also come with elaborate milling and different grip patterns, so players have lots of choice in terms of selecting a dart that suits their grip and throwing style.

What Are 90% Tungsten Darts?

90% tungsten is the tungsten content of the dart barrel. The darts are crafted from a 90% tungsten alloy with 10% other metals, enhancing the material’s strength and workability.

The higher the tungsten content, the denser the barrel material will be, enabling manufacturers to make slimmer darts at the same weight. But very high tungsten percentages can make the material more expensive and less workable.

This makes 90% tungsten a good balance of strength, barrel size and cost, which is why it is such a popular choice for darts players.

90% Tungsten Darts in Different Weights

This collection features 90% tungsten darts in a variety of weights from light 16g darts to heavy 30g darts. Most players tend to pick weights in the 21g to 26g range, with 23g and 24g being two of the most popular choices.

But the barrel shape can also change how a dart feels in your hand too. Bomb barrel darts typically are of a shorter, thicker profile which provides a heftier dart than the straight barrel darts of the likes of Rob Cross, or the scalloped darts of the likes of Simon Whitlock and Connor Scutt.

When you are choosing your next set of darts it is worth thinking about both the weight and barrel shape to find something that feels comfortable and suits your throwing style.

We have a large selection of 90% tungsten steel tip and soft tip darts. Steel tip darts are intended for use with traditional bristle dartboards . Soft tip darts are intended for use with electronic dartboards , and are typically lighter than steel tip darts .

The majority of sets come with three tungsten barrels, flights and stems, but some have an integrated flight system. Selected darts also come with a point-changing tool where applicable, allowing players to customise their dart points.

How to Choose the Best 90% Tungsten Darts

First, look at your natural grip on the dart. You are looking for a barrel with grip in the places that your fingers naturally fall so you can have a comfortable and repeatable grip.

Different barrel shapes help, too. Tapered or straight barrel darts will change the way the dart feels in your hand, so try them out.

Finally select what weight of darts you like. We recommend starting with 23g or 24g darts in general. These are two of the most popular weights, and a good starting point for players searching for their next set.
