What's the difference between impact patch and falam slams?

‍Falam Slams are made of scrap weave material from our Kevlar or Max series drumhead lines. Will come in white, yellow, and black finishes at random based off production batches. Only available as an accessory.

Impact patch is made of scrap mylar film (random mil thickness). All bass drumheads with the 'patch' identifier "C2", will include impact patch. Currently not available separately.

Both patch-types offer added durability and attack to the drumhead's characteristics, and are applied to the drumhead where the bass drum beater makes contact.

Bass vs Snare/Tom type Drumheads

Can I use a tom style drumhead on my bass drum (visa versa)?

Drumhead types are specific to the type of counter-hoop used on the drum. Drums with wooden counter-hoops, most common on bass drums, require a 'bass-type' drumhead which has a wide gauge aluminum flesh-hoop to properly seat and tune up. Drums that use metal counter-hoops, most common on snare and toms, require a non-bass drumhead which has a thinner gauge aluminum flesh-hoop to seat inside. Players have managed to interchange head types in some cases, but it's not likely nor recommended for optimum performance. *We also identify with the part #'s where the 3rd digit is '0' for snare/tom and '1' for bass use. For example: PINSTRIPE® CLEAR DRUMHEAD, 20" PS-0320-00 is for snare/tom style PS-1320-00 is for bass style.

Premier/Pre-International/Metric Drumheads

Are metric-size drumheads for my old Premier drum-set still available? How can I order them?

Yes, drumheads for Premier model drums are still available for purchase. In the 1980's, Remo worked closely with Premier to develop tooling for 4 major sizes: Rack Toms- 10" (9-5/8" actual diameter), 12" (11-7/8" actual diameter); Floor Toms-16" (16-5/16" actual diameter); and Bass-20" (19-5/8" actual diameter). Please note: some Premier models were made outside of these 'standardized' sizes, and may require a full custom made-by-hand drumhead. If your measurements fall outside of these specs, please see custom drumhead link: https://support.remo.com/hc/en-us/articles/202362179-Custom-Drumheads If the inner-diameter of your current drumheads are consistent to the sizes listed above, choose from the following list and submit the special order with your local or online retail store.
