Enhance Grip & Stability
- Improve handling by minimizing slippage.
- Help maintain consistent throws.
Absorb Shock
- Reduce wear and tear on dart components.
- Extend the lifespan of shafts and barrels.
3. Common O Ring Materials
- Nitrile (Buna-N): Durable, oil-resistant, budget-friendly.
- Silicone: Flexible, heat-resistant, longer-lasting.
- Viton: High-performance, resistant to chemicals and extreme conditions.
4. How to Maintain O Rings
- Replace when cracked or flattened.
- Clean periodically to remove dirt and oils.
- Store darts properly to avoid deformation.
5. When to Replace O Rings
