Detail 01
Batter and snare side in one pack
Both surfaces get replaced at once, so response resets evenly instead of a new top fighting an old bottom.

EvansEC Reverse Dot Snare Batter and Snare Side Head Pack With Free Pair of Promark Sticks Wood 5B
1/4
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A two-head snare replacement pack — batter plus snare side — with a pair of 5B wood-tip sticks. For harder hitters redoing a snare.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Loud rock and live players who want a heavier stick in hand
- Drummers replacing a dented batter and stretched bottom head together
- Players who break or bend thinner sticks quickly
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Light-touch jazz and brush players who want a fast, thin stick
- Drummers chasing long open sustain and heavy overtones
- Anyone needing tom or bass drum heads — this is snare only
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
EC edge control
A ring near the perimeter tames overtone ring while leaving the center open, so you can skip tape or gel.
Detail 03
Reverse dot
Extra material at the center where sticks land. Attack stays focused and the strike zone wears slower.
Detail 04
Snare side head
Thin bottom head. It sets wire sensitivity and crispness far more than it sets the drum's pitch.
Detail 05
Promark 5B, wood tip
Thicker than a 5A. More mass means more volume and durability, less finesse on quiet, fast passages.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check your snare's diameter matches before ordering; heads are size-specific
- 02No drum, snare wires or drum key included
- 03Plan on retensioning both heads and settling them in after fitting
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How does a 5B differ from a 5A?
A 5B is thicker and heavier. It moves more air and holds up longer, but rebounds slower and feels less nimble.
02Which head goes on top?
The reverse dot head is the batter and goes on top. The thin snare side head goes on the bottom, under the wires.
03Do I need a drum key?
Yes. You need one to remove the old heads and tension the new ones. It isn't part of this pack.
04Will this work with my existing snare wires?
Yes, the wires stay. Loosen them off the drum while you change the bottom head, then reseat and retension.
