Strong match

Who this is for

  • Re-heading a 12/13/16 tom setup without buying heads separately
  • Drummers wanting more sustain control than a single-ply head
  • Rock and pop playing where toms take hard hits

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Kits with different tom sizes — the pack is fixed at 12/13/16
  • Drummers wanting maximum open sustain and ring
  • Anyone needing bass drum or snare batter heads

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 01

Two-ply clear film

The second ply shortens sustain and tames overtones, so toms sound fatter and more controlled than single-ply.

Detail 02

Clear, not coated

Clear film gives a brighter attack and more stick definition. Coated is warmer and takes brushes; this doesn't.

Detail 03

12/13/16 sizing

Covers two rack toms and one floor tom on a standard five-piece kit. Measure your shells before ordering.

Detail 04

Batter heads

These go on the top playing side. Resonant bottom heads are a separate purchase.

Detail 05

Two plies of film

Thicker plies dent less under hard hitting, so heads last longer than single-ply under heavy sticks.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure tom diameters — head size is the shell diameter, not the rim
  2. 02No bass drum or snare head included; those are separate
  3. 03Budget an hour to strip, seat and tune all three heads

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do these fit a standard five-piece kit?

If your rack toms are 12 and 13 inches and your floor tom is 16, yes. Many kits use 10/12/14 or 12/14/16 instead, so measure first.

02Are these top or bottom heads?

Batter heads for the top playing side. Your resonant bottom heads stay as they are unless you buy those separately.

03Clear or coated — which should I get?

Clear gives brighter attack and more stick definition. Coated is warmer and works with brushes. These are clear.

04Will these make my toms less ringy?

Yes. The second ply cuts overtones and shortens sustain compared to single-ply heads, so you may need less moongel or tape.
