Compare shafts and flights with the parts you already use

Identify your barrel thread and record your shaft length and flight shape. That gives you a reference when replacing a broken part or trying a different assembly.

Measure the exposed shaft

Harrows measures from the shoulder where the shaft meets the barrel to the top where the flight goes in. Leave the threaded section out of that measurement. Compare the millimeter value when brands use different size names.

Decide what you want to replace

Separate shafts and flights let you replace the worn part on its own. An integrated flight and shaft is a single assembly. Check both the thread and the flight profile when moving to the integrated style.

Change one feature at a time

To compare different lengths or flight shapes, leave the barrel and other parts the same. Use your current setup as a reference and check how each version fits in your case before ordering spares.

Guide questions

Does medium describe a fixed length?

Check the stated millimeters and how the manufacturer measures the part.

Can I replace a wing on a molded assembly?

A molded flight-and-shaft assembly is replaced as one piece.

How should I test a new flight profile?

Keep your usual barrel and shaft length, and compare one profile at a time.

Which accessory suits the job?

  1. The short Harrows Supergrip Carbon is listed at 33 mm. Compare the stated length directly with another brand's short shaft.

  2. Target's short Pro Grip listing gives 34 mm and nine stems. It lets you keep your compatible separate flights.

  3. Winmau's medium Fusion No. 2 changes the shaft and wing together. Compare it with the 34 mm No. 6 if you want to isolate wing shape.

  4. This medium No. 6 Fusion has the same listed 34 mm stem length as the No. 2 example and a different wing profile.
