Tweenie Dart Shafts

Tweenie dart shafts are a popular choice for players. The length of a tweenie shaft is between 39mm to 42mm. This makes them ideal for players looking for a stem size which falls in between a short stem (33mm to 36mm) and a medium stem (44mm to 48mm).

A darts stem is a crucial part of the dart and switching to tweenie shafts could make all the difference. With a wide range of colours and materials to choose from, players of all levels are sure to find something that suits their style in this collection.

Should I use a tweenie length?

The length of stem you choose will have an impact on how your dart flies through the air. The stem size will also affect the weight distribution of the dart. For example, a short stem will make the dart more front weighted, which is a preferred option for front grippers/players who hold the dart at the front. A long stem will shift the centre of gravity towards the back of the dart, which is ideal for players who hold the dart at the back closer towards the stem and flight.

A tweenie stem is a suitable choice for players looking to make a slight adjustment to their darts and are currently using either short or medium size stems. If you’re using a short stem and want to move the centre of gravity further back, then a tweenie stem will achieve this. Players throwing with medium stems that want slightly more weight towards the front of the dart can opt for a tweenie stem to move the centre of gravity closer to the point.

The best tweenie shafts for your darts corner

Tweenie dart shafts are available in different materials, with the most common materials used being polycarbonate or nylon, along with aluminium, carbon and titanium being other options too. Titanium is a more durable material, whilst nylon is the more affordable option and replacement shafts can be purchased at a smaller price.
