Brass Darts

Darts is a popular game with kids and adults alike but the brass alloys in some darts could be a hazard to your health.

Health Hazards: Brass alloys often contain lead that rubs off upon handling.

How to Avoid or Minimize Exposure: Test your darts for lead with a home lead test kit and, when possible, buy enamel-coated or tungsten darts. If you use leaded brass darts, wash your hands thoroughly after touching the product.
