Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
An 18-inch clear batter head from Remo. For a floor tom or small bass drum that needs an open, resonant attack.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn 18-inch batter head on a floor tom
- Small kits using an 18-inch bass drum
- Players wanting brighter attack than a coated head
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing a brush-friendly playing surface
- Drummers who want a heavily muffled, dry thud
- Anyone whose drum is not exactly 18 inches
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
Batter side
This is the head you hit. It is not cut or ported for a front bass drum head.
Detail 03
18 in.
Measured across the shell, not the hoop. An 18-inch drum takes this head only.
Detail 04
Single head, no pack
One drum's worth. A full kit change means buying a head for each drum size.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure the shell diameter, not the outer rim, before ordering
- 02No tuning key, muffling ring or damping pads included
- 03Budget a few minutes to seat and stretch the head after mounting
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my 18-inch floor tom?
Yes, if the drum measures 18 inches across the shell. Head sizes go by shell diameter, so measure inside the hoop before ordering.
02Can I use it as a bass drum batter?
Yes, on an 18-inch bass drum. It mounts on the beater side. It is not drilled or ported for use as a front head.
03Clear or coated — what changes?
Clear gives brighter attack and longer sustain. Coated is warmer, drier, and takes brushes. This one is clear, so no brush texture.
04Does it come with anything else?
Just the head. No tuning key, no muffling accessories, no hoop or hardware.
