What's this around the drum?

It's a band around the drum.
What's it for?
Heat dissipation?

Re: What's this around the drum?

Yeah stops vibration, same deal with mine. Can't find anyone else who has them, I think they were only there for a few short years. The louvered ones are better IMHO because they're able to keep colder. And the spring doesnt really help, mine are like a dumptruck's brakes, as far as sound goes.
