Detail 02
Two plies with a damping agent between them. Shorter sustain and fewer overtones than a single-ply head.
Detail 03
Bright attack that carries outdoors. Sticks read clearly on the surface at marching volumes.
Detail 04
Built for high tension and heavy sticking. Thicker and more durable than a comparable drum set head.
Detail 05
One drum in a tenor set. A full quad or quint needs several different sizes.

Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
A marching hoop system where the head is permanently crimped into its own hoop that drops onto the drum. It has to match your drum's hardware, so check before ordering.
No. The Crimplock hoop mounts only on marching drums built for it. A drum set tom takes a standard head with a plain aluminum hoop.
One per drum, each in that drum's size. This covers only the 13-inch drum in the set.
It is built for marching use at high tension. Two-ply construction handles heavy sticking better than a single-ply head.
