When to choose it

Choose the DWSM103 if you want a single medium felt face and the shaft matches your pedal. DW includes a shaft weight. If you are comparing with the same pedal’s original beater, match shaft height first, then change one setting at a time to hear or feel what changes.

If you want to switch between felt and plastic without changing assemblies, compare a compatible two-sided beater. The DWSM103 makes sense when you already want medium felt and prefer the single-face assembly. Follow the kick head or practice-pad maker’s contact guidance.
