When darts claim to be made of Tungsten, take notice to the percentage of Tungsten that they have in them.
Tungsten darts are not 100% Tungsten but rather a Tungsten/ Nickel alloy. The bigger the percentage of Tungsten, , the denser it will be and generally the more expensive the dart is. An 80% Tungsten dart would have 20% Nickel in it. These darts can range anywhere from 70 to 95%.
Be aware that you may see alot of Tungsten darts for sale at a very cheap price and although they claim to be Tungsten, the percentage of them is actually very small. Anything less than 70% will pretty much lose all of the benefits of Tungsten, so I would stay away from them if you are looking for any kind of durability.When the dart is super dense, like lets say it is a 90% Tungsten, it will also be very hard. Sounds great at first right?
Well keep in mind that if you happen to have a lot of bounce outs (which happens alot with soft tip darts!) or your dart hits the floor often for one reason or another, the higher percent Tungsten will be more likely to break, versus a 80% which would have a bit more "give" to it. It will still be durable and it will wear down slower if it is at least 80%.
The majority of dart players find that the 80% Tungsten darts are a great choice for them in both soft tip and steel tip varieties.
