Detail 01
Powerstroke 3 design
An underlay ring at the edge kills high overtones and shortens sustain, so the drum sounds focused without extra padding inside.

RemoPowerstroke 3 Coated Bass Drum Head 26 in.
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 26-inch coated bass drum head with built-in dampening. For drummers on a large kick who want controlled low end without stuffing the drum.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Big-kit rock and classic-rock players running a 26-inch kick
- Anyone wanting focused low end with minimal internal muffling
- Live playing where an uncontrolled 26 gets boomy
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Jazz players who want a fully open, singing kick
- Drummers with a 22 or 24 — this is 26 inches only
- Anyone after maximum sustain and overtones
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
Coated surface
Warmer and less bright than a clear head. Takes some edge off the beater attack.
Detail 03
26 in. diameter
Fits 26-inch bass drums only. Big shells move a lot of air and get boomy, which is why the built-in damping matters here.
Detail 04
Built-in dampening
Control comes from the head, so you can run less pillow inside and keep more of the drum's natural body.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Head only — no beater, pillow, port ring, or tuning key
- 02A 26-inch head takes more even tensioning; go around the lugs in stages
- 03Check your shell measures 26 inches before ordering
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I still need a pillow inside the drum?
Usually less of one. The edge ring handles the ringing overtones, so many players run a light pillow or none at all rather than packing the shell.
02Can I use this as a front head?
It's built as a bass drum head and will work on either side. On the front, the built-in damping tightens the drum further.
03Coated or clear — what's the difference here?
Coated is warmer with a softer attack. Clear is brighter with more beater click. This one is coated.
04Will it fit a 24-inch kick?
No. Heads match shell diameter exactly. This is for 26-inch bass drums.
