FAQs

Are these points compatible with all dart barrels?

They are designed for standard steel-tip dart barrels. If you have non-standard or proprietary barrel designs, please verify your barrel diameter.

Do I need a special tool to install these?

Yes, a dart repointing tool is strictly required to remove old points and press the new Winmau Switch Points into the barrel securely.

Will these points damage my dartboard?

The smooth silver finish is designed to be gentle on sisal fibers, significantly reducing damage compared to points with aggressive knurling.

Can I use these for soft-tip darts?

No, these are steel-tip points and are intended solely for use with sisal (bristle) dartboards.

How often should I replace these points?

Replace them if they become blunted to the point where they bounce out frequently, or if you notice any structural deformation.

Troubleshooting

Point feels loose in the barrel

The barrel hole may have widened over time; use a high-quality repointing tool to ensure the point is fully seated, or consult a professional if the barrel tolerance is compromised.

Point is difficult to insert

Ensure the barrel is completely clean of old metal shavings and check that the point is perfectly aligned with the barrel center before applying pressure with the repointing tool.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality construction ensures long-term durability
  • Smooth finish minimizes wear and tear on dartboard fibers
  • Improves overall stability and throw consistency
  • Easy to integrate with most professional dart barrel setups

Cons

  • Requires a specialized repointing tool for installation
  • Not suitable for use with soft-tip dartboards
  • May require professional installation if you lack the proper tool

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the Winmau Switch Points, you must use a dart repointing tool to safely remove your existing points and press the new ones into the barrel. Avoid using pliers or hammers, as this can damage the barrel threading or deform the point itself. Compatibility is broad, as these points fit almost all standard steel-tip barrels. For maintenance, periodically inspect the tips for blunting or burrs. If a point becomes dull, use a fine-grade sharpening stone to lightly hone the tip, ensuring you maintain the factory taper for optimal board penetration. Keep the points dry to prevent any potential surface oxidation.
