Strong match

Who this is for

  • Reheading the underside of a 10" rack tom
  • Matching a kit with black hardware or dark shells
  • Replacing a bottom head that has dented or split

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing a batter head for the playing side
  • Toms that are 12, 13 or 14 inches
  • Snare drums, which use a thin snare-side head

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

Resonant head

Goes on the bottom of the tom. It controls sustain and pitch and is never struck.

Detail 02

Black film

Opaque rather than clear, so the tom's interior and hardware are hidden from view.

Detail 03

10 inch

Fits a 10" tom. Measure the shell diameter, since depth is irrelevant to head sizing.

Detail 04

Tom-specific

Built for tom bottoms, not the much thinner film a snare's underside requires.

Detail 05

$19.99 single head

Covers one drum side. Doing every tom top and bottom means buying several.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Batter head is separate; this only covers the bottom side
  2. 02Confirm the tom measures 10" across the shell before ordering
  3. 03Retune after fitting; bottom head tension sets the tom's pitch

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Can I play on this head?

No. It is a resonant head for the underside of the tom. Use a batter head on top.

02Does black sound different from clear?

The color is what you see, not what you hear at a glance. Choose it to match your kit's look.

03Will this work on my snare?

No. It is a tom resonant head. Snares need a much thinner snare-side head to let the wires respond.

04What do I need to install it?

Just a drum key. Remove the hoop, seat the new head, tension the lugs evenly, then tune.
