Why Choose a Brass Rim Discus?
Brass Higher Rim Weight Features
-
Brass is denser than steel or aluminum, allowing manufacturers to concentrate more weight at the edge.
-
This increases the rim weight percentage, which promotes a higher moment of inertia; meaning the discus stays spinning longer in the air, leading to greater distance if thrown correctly.
-
A brass rim helps the discus stay stable in wind and maintain its orientation, especially at higher speeds.
