Detail 01
Snare side, not batter
The thin bottom head the wires rest on. It controls sensitivity and buzz length more than overall pitch.

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 14-inch snare side head for the bottom of a standard 14" snare. Straightforward replacement when the resonant head is dented or the buzz has gone flat.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Standard 14-inch kit snares needing a bottom head refresh
- Recovering snare sensitivity on ghost notes and rolls
- Marching snares where wire response matters most
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Use as a playing surface — it will not survive sticks
- 13-inch or 12-inch snares
- Anyone chasing a fat, muted, low-sensitivity snare tone
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
14-inch size
The most common snare diameter, so this fits the large majority of kit and marching snares.
Detail 03
Smooth white surface
Consistent surface under the snare wires. Appearance matters little here since the head faces the floor.
Detail 04
Crimped collar
Conventional hoop build, so it seats in standard 14" counterhoops with no adapter or special hardware.
Detail 05
Around $55
Roughly typical replacement cost, and it's the cheaper of the two sizes here despite being larger.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Sold as a single head — no wires, key, or batter head included
- 02Snare-side heads puncture easily; keep sticks and stands clear
- 03Detension in a star pattern before removing the old head
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does the bottom head really change the sound?
Yes. It sets how readily the wires respond. A worn one dulls ghost notes and makes the snare sound choked.
02Is 14 inch the standard snare size?
It's the most common by far for kit snares. Check your shell diameter if you're unsure, since 13-inch snares exist.
03Do I need a special drum key?
No, a standard drum key works. One isn't included, so use the key that came with your kit.
04Why is the 14-inch cheaper than the 13-inch?
The 14-inch is the volume size, so it's stocked and priced more aggressively. Both are the same head model.
