Detail 01
Clear film
No coating, so overtones stay open and the pitch speaks clearly. Brighter and more sustaining than a coated head.

RemoClear Extended Timpani Head 25 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 25-inch clear timpani head with an extended collar. A replacement head for a 25-inch timpano, sized to the kettle rather than a drum shell.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a stretched or torn head on a 25-inch timpano
- Orchestral and concert percussion sections
- Players wanting a bright, clear pitch with long sustain
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Any drum kit drum — this fits timpani only
- Timpani of any other kettle size; sizes are not interchangeable
- Anyone wanting the darker, warmer sound of natural calfskin
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
Extended collar
Extra depth at the edge lets the head seat properly over a timpani bowl and reach the full tuning range.
Detail 03
25 in. size
Refers to the timpano kettle diameter, not a drum shell. A 25-inch bowl needs the 25-inch head, nothing close to it.
Detail 04
Timpani head, not a drum head
Built for pedal-tuned pitch across a range. Standard tom or bass heads will not seat or tune on a timpano.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your kettle is 25 inches; timpani sizes vary in one-inch steps
- 02Head only — no counterhoop, tuning key or spider wrench
- 03Changing a timpani head means resetting pedal balance and tuning range afterward
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit a 26-inch timpano?
No. Timpani heads are matched to a specific kettle diameter. A 25-inch head will not seat correctly on a 26-inch bowl.
02What does 'extended' mean?
The collar — the shaped edge of the head — is deeper, so it seats over the timpani bowl and tunes across the drum's full pedal range.
03Clear or coated for timpani?
Clear is brighter with clearer pitch and longer sustain. Coated is warmer and drier. This one is clear.
04Do I need special tools to install it?
You need the tuning key or spider wrench for your timpani, and you will need to reset the pedal balance after seating the head.
