RemoCrimplock Symmetry Fiberskyn 3 D1 Conga Drumhead 11 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Pre-mounted 11 in. Fiberskyn conga head on a Remo Crimplock collar. For quinto players with Crimplock-equipped drums who want a synthetic skin.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Quinto-size congas already running Remo Crimplock hardware
- Players who want skin feel without weather-driven retuning
- Outdoor and humid-room playing where natural hide shifts
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Congas with traditional tucked-hide or non-Crimplock mounting
- Players who want the raw crack of natural rawhide
- Anyone needing a 10, 11.75 or 12.5 in. 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 02
Fiberskyn 3
Synthetic film with a fiber coating that mimics hide under the hand. Warmer and drier than a clear plastic head.
Detail 03
11 in. diameter
Quinto sizing. Measure the shell, not the rim or the old collar, before ordering.
Detail 04
D1 collar profile
Crimplock collars come in different depths. The profile has to match your drum or the head sits wrong.
Detail 05
Symmetry construction
Even film tension around the collar, so tuning lugs pull the head more evenly and it seats truer.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your conga uses Crimplock hardware, not tucked hide or a tension band
- 02Measure the shell diameter at its widest point, not the hoop
- 03Single head only. Hardware, hoop and drum are separate
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my conga?
Only if the drum uses Remo Crimplock mounting hardware and measures 11 in. across the shell. Traditional tucked-hide congas cannot take a Crimplock head.
02Do I have to soak or tuck it?
No. The head is already bonded to its collar. It drops onto the Crimplock hardware and tunes with the existing lugs.
03How does it feel compared to real skin?
The fiber coating gives a textured, hide-like surface under the hand rather than the slick feel of a plain synthetic head.
04Does it hold tuning in humidity?
The playing surface is synthetic, so it does not absorb moisture and swell the way natural hide does when weather changes.
