Detail 01
Super-2 two-ply
Two film layers. The plies damp each other, so less overtone, shorter decay, and much more resistance to denting.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Two-ply clear tom head. For hard hitters and loud stages who want durability and a fat, controlled note over open ring.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rock and metal drummers hitting hard night after night
- Toms that ring too long in a loud band mix
- Replacing a head that dents or breaks quickly
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz and light players wanting open sustain
- Brush work, since clear film gives no texture
- Drummers who want maximum stick sensitivity
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Clear
No coating. Brighter attack and more low-mid punch than coated, but brushes slide with no texture to grab.
Detail 03
13 in.
Fits a 13-inch rack tom. Measure the shell diameter, not the rim, when matching.
Detail 04
Tom batter head
Top playing surface. Your bottom resonant head stays on and controls pitch bend and sustain.
Detail 05
Two-ply feel
Stiffer rebound and a slightly muted response at low volume. It opens up when you hit it hard.

Know before you order
- 01Single head, no bottom head or tuning key included
- 02Two-ply heads tune lower and more easily than single-ply
- 03Confirm your tom is 13 inches, not 12 or 14
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How long does a two-ply head last versus single-ply?
Considerably longer under heavy hitting. The second ply absorbs impact that would dent or split a single layer, which is the main reason to buy one.
02Will this make my toms sound dead?
Controlled, not dead. Two plies cut the high overtones and shorten sustain, leaving a fatter fundamental. If you want ring, use a single-ply instead.
03Can I use this on my bass drum?
No. It is a 13-inch tom head. Bass drum heads start much larger and are built differently.
04Is clear or coated better for toms?
Clear is brighter with more attack and works well in loud settings. Coated is warmer and drier and lets you play brushes.
