It's made to last of a weighted solid 3\/4lbs. chunk of CNC'd brass. The weight, friction of leather insert and magnet, all work together to create what we call \"expressive dampening\"- giving color options to your playing all the way through the dynamic range.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neodymium arched\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emagnet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003esecures the Snareweight to the hoop while at the same time securing the leather\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003einsert\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eof your choice for your dampening digs.

Recessed screws now anchor the magnet as well as a raised brass lip to prevent the magnet from chipping. Also we included what we call the \"absorber\" above the magnet to prevent jitter at certain tuning. This also costs more to manufacture but we feel in the long run it's worth it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther info\u003c\/strong\u003e: Snareweight #5 is our flagship damper offering the most options for dialing in the right amount of dampening quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSnareweight adds mass to\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ethe head\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewhich helps to evenly smooth the lower-mid ringing frequencies that\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecan't be reached with other methods\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewhile keeping the tone of your shell in tact\u003c\/span\u003e.

This hand done work is reflected in the price. This new batch really turned out amazing and stoked to get it out to drummers that want the most out of their drum.
