90% TUNGSTEN PHASE 6 BARRELS - Engineered to Bates’ exact specifications, the barrel features a parallel profile for a more stable and balanced flight path, ensuring greater accuracy. The small V cut on the nose and medium V cuts across the mid-section provide solid, reliable control for players who favour a middle grip. Finished with a natural tungsten design, the centre of gravity is positioned forward of centre for enhanced penetration.
VOLUTE® POINTS - Unicorn’s patented Volute® technology increases the surface area of the steel point to strengthen dartboard sisal grip for a significant reduction in the risk of bounce-outs. Innovative CNC helix design enables easy and smooth dartboard removal to greatly reduce visible dartboard damage and improve the longevity of your dartboard when compared to other machined dart points.
BLACK GRIPPER® 4 SHAFT - Polycarbonate construction delivers a more robust shaft for exceptional durability while offering a lightweight solution to maintain balance. Secured with a compression spring ring for additional security, the Gripper® 4 provides a remarkably sturdy flight grip for consistent, seamless gameplay. Its 41mm medium length helps produce overall optimal balance with the barrel.
ULTRAFLY™ FLIGHTS - Designed using metallic polyester, the flight’s 100-micron thickness optimises flexibility to prevent deflections and encourage tighter groupings, while still offering ample rigidity for stable trajectory and outstanding durability.
