Strong match

Who this is for

  • Marching tenor players replacing the top 6-inch drum
  • Drumlines matching black heads across a full tenor set
  • Outdoor playing where a two-ply head holds up

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Kit or concert toms — Crimplock hoops won't mount
  • Players who want long, open, single-ply sustain
  • Anyone needing a 6-inch snare or timbale 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 01

Crimplock hoop

The head is molded into its own hoop, so it fits Crimplock marching drums only, not standard counterhoops.

Detail 02

Pinstripe two-ply film

Two plies with a free-floating edge cut overtones, so the note is short and focused rather than ringing.

Detail 03

Ebony finish

Opaque black film. Slightly darker, thicker feel than clear, and it hides the inside of the drum.

Detail 04

6 in. diameter

The smallest tenor in a typical set, the high accent drum. Head size matches shell diameter, not the old hoop.

Detail 05

Sold as a single head

One drum's worth. A full tenor set needs one head per drum, bought separately.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Head only — no drum key, tension rods, or mounting hardware
  2. 02Confirm your tenors take Crimplock heads before ordering
  3. 03Measure the shell: a 6-inch head fits a 6-inch drum only

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will this fit a regular tom?

No. Crimplock heads mount into a dedicated hoop system used on marching tenors. A standard tom needs a normal hoop and a standard head.

02Is this the black version of the regular Pinstripe?

Yes — same Pinstripe construction, in Remo's Ebony black film instead of clear.

03Does one purchase cover my whole tenor set?

No. This is a single 6-inch head. Buy one head per drum in the set.

04How does it sound compared to a single-ply head?

Shorter and more controlled. The second ply trims overtones and sustain, which keeps the small drum from ringing on the field.
