RemoPinstripe Ebony Crimplock Drum Head 13 in.
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
13-inch Pinstripe batter head in Crimplock format for marching or free-floating toms. Two plies with a floating edge, tuned to a controlled, short sound.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Marching tom players replacing a worn Crimplock-mount head
- Drummers who want less overtone ring without adding muffling
- Rock and live playing where a short, focused tom note cuts
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Standard drum kits with hoop-and-lug tension rods, not Crimplock hardware
- Players wanting long, open sustain and bright top-end from toms
- Anyone needing a snare-side or resonant head
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
Pinstripe two-ply construction
Two films with a damping agent between them. Kills high overtones and shortens sustain without stick-on muffling.
Detail 03
Ebony film
Black film is thicker than clear on Remo heads, so it darkens the attack further and drops volume slightly.
Detail 04
13 in. size
Measure the drum shell diameter, not the old head. A 13-inch marching tom takes only a 13-inch Crimplock head.
Detail 05
Batter side
This is the side you strike. It's not a resonant head and is thicker than one.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your toms use Crimplock hoops, not standard counterhoops and tension rods
- 02Head only. No hoop hardware, tension rods, or drum key included
- 03Two-ply heads need retuning after a break-in period of playing
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my regular drum set tom?
No. Crimplock is a marching tom mounting system with a molded hoop. Standard kit toms need a conventional Pinstripe head instead.
02How does the black film compare to clear Pinstripe?
Same two-ply damped construction, darker and slightly quieter. Black film is thicker, so attack is rounder and sustain shorter than clear.
03Do I need a special tool to change it?
A drum key for the tension rods on your marching hardware. The Crimplock hoop itself seats into the drum's mount.
04Is it good for recording?
The short, controlled decay records cleanly with minimal gating. Less useful if you want a long, ringing tom sound in the room.
