No coating means brighter attack and more sustain than a coated head. Brushes will not grab it.

RemoPowerstroke 77 Clear Snare Drum Batter Head 14 IN
Sale
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A 14-inch clear batter head for a snare drum. For drummers who want attack and cut rather than a warm, dry sound.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a dented or dead 14-inch snare batter head
- Louder playing where the snare needs to cut through
- Drummers who want a focused crack over open ring
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Brush players, who need a coated surface to get sound
- Anyone wanting a soft, dry, vintage snare tone
- Snares that are not 14 inches across
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
Batter head
This is the top head you strike. The thin snare-side head underneath is a separate purchase.
Detail 03
14 in.
Matches a 14-inch snare shell, the most common size. Measure the shell, not the rim.
Detail 04
Powerstroke 77 design
Built for controlled attack with less uncontrolled overtone, so it needs less tape or gel to tame.
Detail 05
Single head
One batter head. Rebuilding a whole snare means adding a snare-side head separately.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Snare-side head, tuning key and dampening are not included
- 02Confirm your snare is 14 inches before ordering
- 03Clear heads show stick marks and dents faster than coated ones
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this the top or bottom snare head?
Top. It is a batter head, made for the side you strike. The bottom snare-side head is much thinner and sold separately.
02Will it work on a tom?
Physically a 14-inch head fits a 14-inch tom. It is designed as a snare batter, so expect a focused, controlled sound rather than an open tom note.
03Do I need moongel with this head?
Usually less than with a plain single-ply clear head. It is built to control overtones on its own. Start with none and add only if needed.
04Can I use brushes on it?
No. Brushes need a coated surface to produce a sweep sound. On a clear head they are nearly silent.
