Product Information

Full details

The Winmau Switch Points - Grooved Silver are essential upgrades for competitive and casual dart players seeking greater consistency and control. These precision-engineered replacements offer a distinct grooved texture that provides enhanced tactile grip and stability upon release, helping to lock the dart into the board. While they significantly improve performance and barrel-to-point transition, users should note that they require specific compatibility verification with their existing dart barrels to ensure a secure fit.

FAQs

Are these points compatible with all Winmau darts?

Most Winmau barrels are compatible, but always check your specific barrel specifications before installation.

Do I need a special tool to install these?

Yes, you will need a standard dart repointing tool to safely remove old points and press in the new Switch Points.

Will the grooves damage my dartboard?

If properly installed and maintained, they will not damage the board. Ensure you smooth out any burrs that develop over time.

What is the primary benefit of the grooved texture?

The grooves provide additional tactile grip for players who place their fingers on the point during their setup.

How often should I replace these points?

Replace them when you notice they are becoming dull, bent, or if they no longer fit securely in your barrels.

Troubleshooting

Point is loose in the barrel

Verify the barrel diameter is compatible or use a point-locking adhesive if permitted by your specific league rules.

Point creates a burr on the tip

Use a specialized dart sharpening stone to lightly file down the rough edge in a circular motion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Switch Points requires a dedicated dart point re-pointing tool. Ensure that your barrel threading is compatible before attempting to press-fit the new points. If the points feel loose during the initial fitting, do not force them; verify the barrel hole diameter. To maintain your points, always use a dartboard protector or surround to prevent damage should a dart fall. If you notice the points becoming dull or developing rough edges, use a fine-grit sharpening stone to gently smooth them, maintaining the tip's integrity for better board entry.
