Detail 01
Resonant head
Goes on the bottom side. It vibrates in sympathy and sets sustain and pitch decay, rather than taking stick contact.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 16-inch black resonant head for the bottom side of a floor tom. Buy it to replace a worn or mismatched bottom head.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Refreshing the bottom side of a 16-inch floor tom
- Matching a black-finish head look across a kit
- Cheap fix for a dented or torn resonant head
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing a batter head to strike
- Anyone whose floor tom is not 16 inches
- Kits with no bottom heads fitted at all
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
16 in.
Measured across the shell, not the hoop. Fits a 16-inch floor tom only; a 14 or 18 will not seat.
Detail 03
Black film
Cosmetic on the underside. Changes how the kit looks from the front, not how the drum is played.
Detail 04
Single head, sold alone
Covers one drum. A full tom changeover needs a separate batter head for the top.
Detail 05
$24.99
Low enough to replace on feel rather than only after damage, which is where most tone loss comes from.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Batter head not included; this only covers the bottom of the drum
- 02Measure the shell diameter, not the hoop or the old head
- 03Needs a drum key and a fresh seat-and-tune after fitting
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this as a top head?
No. It is made for the resonant side. Resonant heads are not built to take stick contact and will fail quickly if struck.
02Will it fit my 16x16 floor tom?
Yes. The 16 refers to shell diameter, so any 16-inch tom works regardless of depth.
03Does it come with anything else?
One head only. No hoop, no lugs, no drum key, no batter head.
04Will a black resonant head change my sound?
The film colour itself is cosmetic. Any change you hear comes from swapping a worn head for a new one and retuning.
