The iron disc last longer? That runs counter to everything I have ever read or watched about CC discs. By the way, the two worldwide manufacturers of CC discs merged a few years ago, so I would imagine the performance of all CC discs is similar because all rotors are made by the same company. The caliper/piston setup as well as friction material could vary I suppose.
