DW 12" Coated Clear Tom Drum Head

The DW 12" Coated Clear Tom Drum Head is a single–ply design built from Dupont® film, engineered to deliver the brightness and articulation demanded in recording and live contexts. Fitted standard across DW's Collectors and Performance Series drums, this head represents the manufacturer's commitment to tuning stability and consistent stick response across a working drummer's setup.

Construction centres on a coated clear film that balances durability with tonal clarity, paired with DW's Crimplock® high–tension collar for secure head seating and reduced slippage under dynamic play. The 12" diameter sits in the mid–tom range, bridging kick and snare frequencies. Single–ply construction yields faster note attack and reduced overtone decay compared to double–ply alternatives, making this head suitable for genres requiring definition and punch without excessive resonance bleed.
