Replacing timpani heads is not as simple as replacing a snare, tom, or bass head. Please read through our
Replacing Timpani Heads Guide if you're not 100% sure what size you need.
Remo Custom Hazy Timpani Heads project above ensembles easily with a focused, bright tone slightly warmer than a clear head. These heads are minimally affected by humidity and temperature, making them popular with schools, drum corps, and professional timpanists.
The low-profile steel insert ring provides a strong, thin bearing edge for the head to rest upon, increasing tuning consistency and making the seating process easier to deal with. Unlike the tall steel insert ring, this version only raises the head above the counterhoop a small amount.
Do not use steel insert rings if you plan on taking the timpani outside - the ring will rust when exposed to moisture.
