Detail 01
Crimplock
A specific mounting collar system. The drum needs matching Crimplock hardware — this will not fit a standard hide setup.

Strong match
Who this is for
- Congas already fitted with Crimplock hardware
- Outdoor and touring players tired of weather-driven retuning
- Anyone wanting the calfskin look without hide upkeep
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Congas with traditional tucked or bolt-on hide heads
- Players committed to real skin for its feel
- Any drum that is not 11.75 in.
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
Skyndeep
A synthetic playing surface, so humidity and temperature move the tuning far less than natural skin does.
Detail 03
Calfskin graphic
The hide appearance is printed on. It looks like skin from a few feet away; it plays like synthetic.
Detail 04
11.75 in.
Conga sizing is exact. This is one specific drum in a set, not a size that stretches to fit.
Detail 05
Symmetry
Refers to the head's build, not a tuning range. It does not change what hardware you need.
Detail 06
Single head
Covers one drum. A matched set of congas needs a head bought per drum, per size.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your conga uses Crimplock mounting before ordering — the collar is not universal
- 02Measure your drum's head diameter; 11.75 in. is not interchangeable with 11 or 12
- 03No hardware, rings, or tuning wrench included
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 is 11.75 in. and uses Crimplock mounting. Traditional tucked-hide congas need a different head.
02Is this real calfskin?
No. It is a synthetic head with a calfskin appearance printed onto it.
03Does it hold tuning outdoors?
Better than natural skin. The synthetic surface does not swell and slacken with humidity the way hide does.
04What size conga is 11.75 in.?
That measurement is the head diameter. Match it to your drum's stated size rather than guessing by name.
