Detail 01
Clear film
No coating means a brighter, more open attack than a coated head, with more stick definition and slightly more overtone.

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
8 in.
A small rack tom. It tunes high and short by nature, so it is more about attack than sustain.
Detail 03
Super-2
Aquarian's two-ply construction line: heavier film, more durability, less ring, and a fatter tone than a single-ply head.
Detail 04
Batter head
The top head you strike. The bottom resonant head is separate and controls the tom's pitch bend and sustain.
Detail 05
$24.99
Small heads cost less than large ones. Re-heading every tom on a kit still adds up.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Batter head only — no resonant head, no tuning key included
- 02Confirm your shell measures 8 inches, not the hoop
- 03Small heads go sharp fast; tune in small increments
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is clear or coated better for toms?
Clear gives brighter attack and more sustain; coated is warmer and works with brushes. On an 8-inch tom, clear helps it cut.
02Does this fit an 8-inch drum exactly?
Yes, if the shell diameter is 8 inches. Measure across the shell itself, not over the hoop, before ordering.
03Will a two-ply head sound dead on a small tom?
No. It shortens ring and adds body compared to single-ply, which suits a small tom that already has short natural sustain.
04Can I use this on the bottom of the tom?
It is built as a batter. Resonant heads are thinner so the drum breathes. Use a proper resonant head underneath instead.
