Description

The Chord DHT-12 is a replacement clear drum head sized at 12 inches. It's a general purpose skin that works across a range of drums, giving you a straightforward way to replace a worn or damaged head without much fuss. If you need a reliable everyday head that gets your kit sounding right again, this fits the bill.

The clear film gives you a bright, open tone with plenty of attack and sustain, which is why clear heads remain a popular choice for toms and snares alike. You can fit it as a batter head (the one you hit) or use it as a resonant head underneath, depending on how you want the drum to respond. Because it's a general purpose design, it's a sensible option whether you're working on a practice kit or refreshing an older set.

Fitting is simple: remove the old head, seat the new one over the drum shell, and tension it evenly with your drum key. The 12 inch size is common for rack toms, so check your shell diameter before ordering to make sure you have the right fit. If you keep a few spares to hand, you'll always be ready to swap out a split head between rehearsals or gigs.
