Do Tungsten Darts Rust?
Tungsten darts are favored by professionals for their durability and precision. A common question is whether they rust. Below, we break down the facts.
Why Tungsten Darts Resist Rust
- Material Properties: Tungsten is a corrosion-resistant metal, meaning it doesn’t oxidize (rust) like iron or steel.
- Alloy Composition: Most tungsten darts are 80-95% tungsten mixed with nickel or other non-corrosive metals, enhancing rust resistance.
- Surface Treatment: Many tungsten darts have coatings (e.g., titanium nitride) for extra protection.
Factors That Can Affect Rust Resistance
- Lower-Quality Alloys: Cheap tungsten darts (<70% tungsten) may contain rust-prone metals.
- Damage or Scratches: Exposed nickel or other alloys in scratched darts may corrode over time.
- Moisture Exposure: Prolonged exposure to humidity can cause minor surface tarnish (not true rust).
Maintenance Tips for Longevity
- Dry After Use: Wipe darts with a soft cloth to remove moisture and sweat.
- Store Properly: Keep in a dry case or holder to prevent humidity damage.
- Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Use mild soap and water if cleaning is needed.
Tungsten vs. Other Dart Materials
Material | Rust Risk | Durability |
---|---|---|
Tungsten | Very Low | High |
Brass | Moderate | Low |
Nickel-Silver | Low | Medium |
Expert Insight: According to the World Darts Federation, tungsten darts are the standard for professionals due to their rust resistance and consistent performance.
Final Verdict
Tungsten darts do not rust under normal conditions. Opt for high-tungsten content (90%+) and proper care to ensure longevity.
