Swiss Point Darts

Swiss Point Darts

Swiss Point darts incorporate Target Darts' interchangeable point system, allowing players to unscrew their dart points and replace them with different lengths, grip styles and designs to create a fully customisable setup.

Both Target and Target Japan use the Swiss Point system, and all Swiss Points are compatible across Swiss Point barrels from both brands. If your darts are Swiss Point compatible, you can easily swap between different point styles and lengths without changing the barrel, making it simple to fine tune your setup.

What Are Swiss Point Darts?

Swiss Point darts are steel tip darts with a specially designed threaded barrel that accepts removable Swiss Points. The points simply screw into the barrel until fully tightened, creating a secure fit that is ready for play.

Every set of Swiss Point darts includes a Swiss Point tool, allowing you to grip, remove and replace your points quickly and easily.

This makes experimenting with different point lengths incredibly simple. Shorter points create a more compact setup, while longer points leave more room in the dartboard for grouping and can alter the feel of the dart during release. Because the points can be changed in seconds, players can easily test different lengths and styles without replacing the barrel.

Swiss Point technology requires the threaded section inside a compatible barrel, so Swiss Points cannot be fitted to standard steel tip darts.

Target Swiss Point Darts

Players choosing an interchangeable point setup have a huge selection of Target Swiss Point darts to choose from, including both original Target designs and signature professional player models.

Target Darts is one of the most recognised manufacturers in the sport and has worked with some of the biggest names in darts, including Raymond van Barneveld, Phil Taylor, Josh Rock and Luke Littler.

Swiss Point darts are available in a wide range of weights, including 21g, 22g, 23g, 24g, 25g and 26g. They're also available in different tungsten percentages, including 80%, 90% and 95%, allowing players to choose the barrel profile and feel that best suits their throwing style.

Popular Swiss Point Player Darts

Fans of Target's professional player ranges can choose from a huge selection of Swiss Point darts inspired by some of the biggest names in the sport. Current Target players with signature Swiss Point darts include Josh Rock, Luke Littler, Rob Cross, Nathan Aspinall and Stephen Bunting, among many others.

Although every Swiss Point dart features the same interchangeable point system, each player's barrel has its own unique shape, grip pattern and design. This allows players to customise their point length and style while continuing to throw their favourite player's barrel.

How to Choose the Best Swiss Point Darts

Choosing the best Swiss Point dart involves much more than selecting the point system. Weight, barrel shape, grip position and tungsten percentage all influence how the dart feels in your hand and performs during the throw.

Swiss Point darts are available in weights from around 18g up to 26g and are offered in a wide variety of barrel profiles, including straight, tapered, bomb, torpedo and other specialist designs.

Alongside signature player models, Target also produces popular non player ranges such as Bolide and Exo, giving players the choice between professional inspired setups and original Target barrel designs.

Selecting Swiss Points for Your Darts

Once you own a compatible Swiss Point barrel, you can personalise your setup with different point lengths, colours and grip styles. Point length plays an important role in how your darts perform.

Longer points position the barrel further away from the dartboard, leaving more space for grouping and allowing following darts to pass more easily into the board. Shorter points create a more compact setup that many players find offers greater control during the throw.

Grip is another important consideration. Some players prefer smooth points, while others like additional grip to provide more purchase during the release. Swiss Points are also available in a variety of colours, allowing you to further personalise your setup.

Swiss Point Darts FAQs

What are Swiss Point darts?

Swiss Point darts are steel tip darts that use Target's interchangeable point system. The threaded points screw into compatible barrels and can be removed in seconds using the Swiss Point tool supplied with every set.

Unlike traditional steel tip darts that require specialist repointing equipment, Swiss Point darts allow players to replace their points quickly and easily at home.

Can you put Swiss Points into normal darts?

No. Swiss Points are only designed for use with Swiss Point compatible barrels. These barrels contain a specially machined threaded section that allows the points to screw securely into place. Standard steel tip barrels do not have this thread, so Swiss Points will not fit.

Do all Target darts use Swiss Points?

No. While many newer Target steel tip dart ranges feature Swiss Point technology, not every Target dart is Swiss Point compatible. Always check the product specifications before purchasing replacement Swiss Points.

Can you change the length of Swiss Points?

Yes. Swiss Points are available in a variety of lengths, allowing players to experiment with how far the point extends beyond the barrel. Changing point length can alter how the dart enters the board and how easily it groups with subsequent darts.

What is the difference between a Swiss Point and a standard dart point?

A standard steel tip point is permanently pressed into the barrel and normally requires specialist repointing equipment to replace. Swiss Points use a threaded fitting instead, allowing the point to be unscrewed and replaced in seconds using the dedicated Swiss Point tool.
