Are All Flail Hammers Created Equal?

So, this is the question.
When the time comes, which may be soon, to replace the hammers on my EFGC 155 what should I look for?
I'm thinking the original hammers may not be the best!

What do you guys think?

they will last longer than you think.

also will last longer if you clear all the rocks and debris before cutting

Been getting a lot of use out of my EFGC125 chewing up heavy brush (no rocks) and inspected my hammers last week. Found one that lost half the cup section so I started looking for replacements and did not come across any at the 1lb-11oz weight of the Bestco originals so I ordered a 6 pack from them that will be here later today. The remaining hammers were all in good condition. I did notice that several of the oem retaining bolts were a bit short for the locknuts so I'm gonna replace those also.
