Acacia dangarensis is a tree that typically grows to a height of up to 10 m (33 ft) and has smooth grey bark, later corrugated and blackish. Its branchlets are terete, glabrous, ridged and have many lenticels. The leaves are bipinnate and frond-like on a petiole 7–47 mm (0.28–1.85 in) long. Each leaf has 2 to 6 pairs of pinnae 30–78 mm (1.2–3.1 in) long, with 14 to 30 pinnules 4–9 mm (0.16–0.35 in) long. There is usually a gland at the base of the pinnae. The flowers are golden yellow and borne in heads of 12 to 26 flowers on peduncles 1–4 mm (0.039–0.157 in) long. Flowering has been recorded in August and September, and the pods are more or less straight, barely constricted between the seeds, 30–80 mm (1.2–3.1 in) long and 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) wide, light brown to black and glabrous.
