Set of 15
Standard Backgammon Checkers - plastic, solid colours
ø 33x 8mm (1.3x 0.3 inches)

These checkers are made with a slightly convex face and a slightly concave side. They are particularly suitable for inexpensive backgammon boards with sewn on points. The ideal set-up is with the convex face touching the playing surface, this reduces the risk of checkers catching on the edge of the points and damaging them, and allowing a fluid movement.

Suitable for Backgammon, Draughts, International Draughts, Checkers, Polish draughts.

Price (excluding UK/EU/Europe): $1.00 (price UK: £0.86, EU/Europe: €1.04, Denmark: kr 7.33)

To determine the size of checker that fits your set, measure the inside of the backgammon board, so as to determine what the maximum size of checker fits your set. Do not measure the checkers, as the original checkers may be smaller than the actual size for a perfect fit without gaps.
Measure along the inside edge - the edge where the base of the 6 triangles, measure from corner to corner, (i.e. from the edge of the middle bar to edge of playing surface). It is best to measure in millimetres, as this is more accurate, and divide this number by 6 to get the actual maximum size. Thus if this measurement is 270mm, then each checker can have a maximum diameter of 45mm (or 4.5cm).
