Rightwards Harpoon With Barb Down To Bar Symbol Meaning
⥗ (Unicode U+2957) is a “rightwards harpoon with barb down to bar” arrow. Visually, it combines a rightward arrow direction with a harpoon/barb element and a bar to give it a more specific, tool-like or mechanical feel than a plain arrow. In practice, people use it to indicate a direction for actions such as “move right,” “link/target,” or “dispatch,” especially when they want more emphasis or a specialized transport cue than characters like →. It’s also used in structured diagram text where a distinct arrow style helps readability. When compatibility matters, test rendering in your fonts.
Common uses
- •UI labels and buttons to indicate a rightward action or navigation
