LaserDarts’ Black Widow Darts

In the world of darts, one name stood out as one of the best, the Black Widow darts. These darts are one of the top-rated products of LaserDarts, a well-known provider of excellent darting technology and equipments. Well, in the history of darts, it is the Black Widow darts which is the most desired item among steel tip professionals, and in today’s market, these darts are made available for soft tip competitors.

The Construction

The process involved in the crafting of Black Widow darts begins with a billet of high-density tungsten. The billet is first center-ground and shaped and this procedure is followed by the drilling and threading of the Black Widow darts point and shaft cavities. The Black Widow darts is specifically noted for its great barrel design, which gives the “best of worlds” as many people say. Being slightly front weighted for stability and accuracy coupled with a slimmer profile for further precise dart patterns, it’s no wonder that the Black Widow darts is claimed by many people as such.

The manufacturing process of Black Widow darts further involved the procedure of applying grooves or knurling, intended for grip and release. This procedure actually starts after the crafting of the barrel. And, after the tooling for the Black Widow darts is completed, the barrel is usually reexamined for proper weight.

The Coating

The Black Widow darts are normally coated by painting. Also, many of the Black Widow darts’ manufacturers prefer baking the substance onto the barrel for the coating. Basically, the Black Widow darts are vapor coated in high heat furnaces that fuse blends of titanium or tantalum nitride as well as titanium carbide gas to the tungsten barrel. Every barrel then welcomes three different coatings prior to the completion of the whole process. It is these multi-layered coating of the Black Widow darts that provide an ultra-hard textured finish for both the unparalleled gripping characteristics and starling appearance of the Black Widow darts.

The Shaft

The Black Widow darts are typically supplied with the unique “Spider Leg” shaft. So instead of four slots, the four high tensile strength wires are anchored in an aluminum base, and finally covered with a heat shrunk rubber, which according to the manufacturers of Black Widow darts provide a firm hold on the flight.

Pros and Cons

Just like some well-known darts however, the Black Widow darts has its own strengths and weaknesses. In terms of its good assets, the Black Widow darts have points that are inserted into the darts from the back of the barrel which is good because they do not come unscrewed, there are no extra parts to replace and that’s there is the point itself. What’s more, the Black Widow darts points have absolutely no rattle, and you don’t have to buy a dart tool just to replace or tighten the points.

On the other hand, the Black Widow darts, being the best on the market, are one of the most expensive. In fact, even when you find them on sale somewhere, the price is still more than $100. And, because the Black Widow darts’ point makes contact when it hits the board, the metal shafts are then not applicable for use. Also, the constant hammering that the shaft would take could ruin the threads inside the barrel, giving you a limit to using plastic or nylon shaft.
