FAQs
What does 'M' size refer to?
'M' typically refers to the length of the dart stem. However, without specific measurements provided, it's best to refer to product specifications or compare with stems you already own.
How do I attach a flight to this stem?
The 'Easy-Flight Load' feature means you insert the flight directly into the gripper end of the stem. The gripper mechanism and spring compression will help hold it in place.
Is the two-tone design durable?
The two-tone design is applied to the stem. While generally durable for normal use, excessive impact or abrasive cleaning could lead to wear over time.
Can I replace the spring if it wears out?
These stems are typically sold as a unit, and individual components like the spring are not designed for user replacement. If the spring mechanism fails, the stem usually needs to be replaced.
What material is the stem made from?
The product description does not specify the material, but dart stems are commonly made from durable plastics like nylon or polycarbonate.
How does the 'Super Lock Flight Hold' work?
This feature combines the 'Gripper 3 Shafts' and 'Spring Compression' to create a tight, secure grip on the flight, minimizing the chance of it coming loose during play.
Troubleshooting
Flights are still loose after attaching.
Ensure the flight is fully seated into the gripper mechanism and that the spring compression is functioning correctly. Try re-inserting the flight.
Stem does not screw into the dart barrel.
Verify that you have the correct thread size for your barrel. While this stem has a small thread, double-check for any debris in the barrel's thread or on the stem's thread.
The two-tone design is chipping or peeling.
This is likely due to excessive wear. Gently clean the affected area with a soft cloth. If significant damage occurs, consider replacing the stem.

- Offers a distinctive visual design.
- Compatible with most standard dart barrels due to small thread size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Unicorn Two Tone Gripper Dart Stem, simply screw it into the threaded end of your dart barrel. Ensure the thread engages smoothly to avoid cross-threading. The small thread size offers broad compatibility with most standard dart barrels. To care for your dart stems, periodically wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any dust or residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they may damage the material or the gripper mechanism. Check the flight grip periodically for wear and tear, replacing the stem if the grip becomes ineffective.
