Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Single-ply clear batter head for a 15-inch tom, with a built-in underside damping ring. For drummers who want focused toms without taping the head.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Floor toms that ring too long in small rooms or studios
  • Live playing where toms need punch, not sustain
  • Replacing a worn 15-inch tom batter head

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Drummers chasing long, open sustain and jazz-style tom bloom
  • Hard hitters who need two-ply durability
  • Any drum that is not 15 inches across

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

Clear film

Brighter attack and less warmth than a coated head. No texture, so brushes will not speak on it.

Detail 02

Powerstroke 3 damping ring

An inlay ring on the underside edge shortens sustain and trims overtones, so external muffling is usually unnecessary.

Detail 03

Single-ply

One layer of film stays responsive at low volume but dents and wears sooner than a two-ply head.

Detail 04

Batter head

Goes on the top, striking side. The bottom resonant head is a separate, thinner head.

Detail 05

15 in.

Head sizes match the drum's shell diameter, not the hoop. A 15-inch head fits only a 15-inch drum.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01One head only. No drum key, resonant head, or muffling included.
  2. 02Measure the shell before ordering; 15-inch toms are less common than 14 or 16.
  3. 03New heads stretch. Expect to retune after the first hour of playing.

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Does this go on the top or bottom of the drum?

Top. It is a batter head, meant to be struck. The bottom of the drum takes a thinner resonant head, sold separately.

02Do I still need moongel or tape with this head?

Usually not. The built-in damping ring already cuts edge overtones. You can still add gel if you want an even drier sound.

03Will it fit a 14-inch tom?

No. Drum heads only fit the exact diameter listed. This is a 15-inch head for a 15-inch drum.

04Is this coated or clear?

Clear. It has the brighter, more open attack of a clear film rather than the softer, drier sound of a coated head.
