Tapered Darts

Browse our selection of tapered darts at ArrowHeadz. Tapered barrels gradually change diameter from front to back, shifting the centre of gravity and influencing the dart's flight arc. Front-weighted tapers suit players who throw with a flat trajectory, while rear tapers suit a more lobbed throw.

How Taper Affects Your Throw

• Front-heavy taper produces a flatter, more direct flight path
• Rear-heavy taper creates a more arcing trajectory
• Natural grip point where the diameter transitions

Compare with straight, torpedo and bomb barrel shapes. Read our dart weight guide to understand how weight distribution affects your throw.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tapered dart barrel?

A tapered barrel gradually changes diameter along its length. This shifts the balance point compared to a straight barrel, affecting the dart's flight arc and how it sits in your hand.
