    Does anyone have experience with conmet drums?

    The Freightliner dealer said they are made in the United States and they are balanced, but I have no experience with them.

    Haven’t used any recently, but check for the made in USA stamp. Last I knew, Con-met ship USA Iron to China for them to build the drums. (Yeah I didn’t buy it either). But they may have changed back to actually being built in the USA.

    Not that I had any problems with the drums made in China. I didn’t buy their story. And if I can’t trust the salesman, I can’t trust the parts.
