Detail 01
Rubber head
Harder than felt, so the attack is sharper and cuts through a loud band. Less of a soft low thump.

TAMAIron Cobra Bass Drum Beater Rubber
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A rubber replacement beater for TAMA Iron Cobra bass drum pedals. Buy it to replace a worn beater or to get a firmer attack than felt.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a worn or torn beater on an Iron Cobra pedal
- Players who want more click and definition from the kick
- Keeping a spare beater in the hardware bag
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone after a soft, rounded thump — felt does that better
- Players worried about marking a thin or vintage bass drum head
- Pedals whose beater clamp will not take this shaft
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
Iron Cobra fitment
Designed around TAMA's Iron Cobra pedal, so the shaft and clamp geometry are a known match.
Detail 03
Beater weight
Beater mass changes pedal feel — a different head can make the return feel faster or heavier than what you are used to.
Detail 04
$34.99
Cheaper than replacing a pedal. A worn beater is usually the reason a kick sound goes dull, not the pedal itself.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Single beater, not a pair — order two if you run a double pedal
- 02You will need a drum key to swap it in
- 03Reset your beater height and spring tension after the swap
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit a non-TAMA pedal?
It is made for the Iron Cobra. Many pedals use a similar beater shaft, but measure your clamp opening before assuming it drops in.
02Rubber or felt — which should I pick?
Rubber for a harder, more defined attack that stays audible in a loud mix. Felt for a warmer, softer thump with less click.
03Will it damage my bass drum head?
A harder beater wears a head faster than felt. Use an impact patch on the batter head if you play hard or play often.
04Do I get two for a double pedal?
No. This is one beater. Buy a second if you need a matched pair on a double pedal.
