A small V cut at the nose and medium V cuts through the mid-section give reliable control for players who favour a middle grip, while the natural tungsten finish keeps the centre of gravity forward for enhanced penetration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVolute® Points: Unicorn's patented Volute® technology widens the surface area of the steel point, strengthening its hold in the sisal and significantly cutting the risk of bounce-outs. A CNC helix design also allows for smooth, easy removal from the board, reducing visible damage and extending the dartboard's life compared with other machined points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack Gripper® 4 Shaft: Built from polycarbonate for a robust yet lightweight shaft that keeps balance intact. A compression spring ring adds extra security, giving the Gripper® 4 a sturdy flight grip for consistent play. Finished in glossy black to complement the barrel's natural tungsten, its 41mm medium length helps produce good overall balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltraFly™ Flights: Made from metallic polyester at 100 microns thick, the flights balance flexibility, to reduce deflections and encourage tighter groupings, with enough rigidity for a stable, durable flight path. The electric yellow design, featuring Roelofs' logo, stands out sharply against the dart's black finish for a modern, professional look.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unicorn","offers":[{"title":"24 Gram","offer_id":54361499369805,"sku":"U11332","price":89.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/4792\/1229\/files\/unicorn-owen-bates-steel-tip-darts-u11332-main.jpg?v=1784660117","url":"https:\/\/thedartsshop.co.uk\/products\/unicorn-owen-bates-90-tungsten-steel-tip-darts","provider":"The Darts Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
