Full details

FAQs

Are these shafts compatible with soft-tip barrels?

Yes, as long as the barrel utilizes the industry-standard 2BA thread, these shafts will fit perfectly.

Will these shafts change the weight of my dart?

Yes, because these are made of titanium-coated aluminium, they are generally heavier than standard nylon stems, which will shift the balance point toward the rear of the barrel.

Do I need special tools to install them?

No, they can be tightened by hand, though a dart tool can be used to ensure they are securely fastened.

Can these shafts be used for both steel and soft tip darts?

Yes, the 2BA thread is universal across most steel and soft tip professional equipment.

How do I know if the Gx2 is the right length for me?

The 'Short' variant is ideal for players who want a faster, straighter trajectory, while intermediate or longer lengths may provide more stability for those with a slower, lofted throw.

Troubleshooting

Shaft keeps unscrewing from the barrel

Use a small O-ring or rubber washer between the shaft and the barrel to create friction and prevent loosening.

Flight keeps slipping out of the rear

Ensure you are using a standard thickness flight; if using very thin flights, a flight punch and ring system may be required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable construction due to titanium-coated aluminium
  • Improved flight stability from the secure rear design
  • Professional-grade balance favored by world-class players
  • Universally compatible with standard 2BA barrels

Cons

  • Heavier than standard nylon or polycarbonate shafts
  • Metal construction can be susceptible to bending if thrown at hard surfaces repeatedly
  • Higher initial cost compared to entry-level plastic alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply unscrew your existing shafts from the barrel and rotate the Gx2 shafts into the 2BA thread until snug. Do not overtighten, as this can wear out the threads on the barrel.

  • Compatibility: Compatible with all standard 2BA threaded barrels. Ensure your flight type is standard thickness to take full advantage of the Gx2 rear gripping mechanism.
  • Care Instructions: Periodically check that the shaft is still tightly screwed into the barrel after heavy sessions, as vibrations can cause them to loosen. Wipe down with a soft, dry cloth to keep the titanium coating free from oils and debris. If the shaft becomes slightly bent, it can sometimes be straightened by hand, but avoid excessive manipulation to maintain structural integrity.
