The Korena take

Three coated two-ply heads in 10, 12 and 16 — a rock-sized tom set. For drummers replacing all their tom batters at once.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Re-heading a rock kit with 10, 12 and 16 toms in one order
  • Players who dent single-ply heads and want more durability
  • Anyone wanting shorter sustain without adding muffling

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Kits with different tom sizes — the pack is fixed at 10/12/16
  • Jazz or light players who want open, singing sustain
  • Anyone needing a snare or kick head — toms only here

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 (G2)

Two layers of film. Sustain is shorter and attack rounder than single-ply, and it survives hard hitting longer.

Detail 02

Coated

The coating tames some high overtones and warms the tone slightly compared to a clear two-ply.

Detail 03

10/12/16 sizes

The standard rock tom configuration — two rack toms and a floor tom. Check your shells match exactly.

Detail 04

Batter heads

These go on the top, the side you strike. Your resonant bottom heads stay as they are.

Detail 05

Three heads in one pack

Cheaper per head than buying individually, but only if you need all three sizes.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure all three shells before ordering — sizes are fixed, not mixed
  2. 02Bottom resonant heads are not included, only the three batters
  3. 03Budget an hour to seat, tension and tune all three drums

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Do these include bottom heads?

No. This is a three-pack of batter heads for the top of your toms. Resonant heads for the underside are sold separately.

02Will two-ply heads sound dead?

They're controlled, not dead. Sustain is shorter and the attack is fuller than single-ply, which is why they suit louder playing without needing tape or rings.

03Can I swap a size if my toms are 10/12/14?

No. The pack ships as 10, 12 and 16. For a 14 floor tom, buy the sizes you need individually.

04How long do two-ply heads last?

Longer than single-ply under hard hitting, since the second layer takes the abuse. Replace when you see stretching, dents at the center, or tuning that won't hold.
