Description

The Chord DHT-6 is a replacement drum head measuring 6 inches, made with a clear film for general purpose use. It fits smaller toms and other 6in drums, giving you a straightforward way to bring an older or worn drum back to life. If your existing head has lost its tone or picked up dents and pitting, swapping it out is one of the simplest jobs you can do to keep your kit sounding right.

Clear heads like this one tend to give a slightly brighter, more open sound than coated versions, with a bit more attack and sustain. That makes them a sensible pick for players who want their toms to sing out. The single-ply clear film is a common choice for general playing, whether you're practising at home, rehearsing, or gigging. It sits well across most styles without pushing the sound in any one direction.

Fitting is simple enough for anyone to manage. You loosen and remove the old head, drop the new one over the shell, then seat the hoop (rim) and tension the lugs evenly with a drum key. Because it's a standard 6in size, the DHT-6 works as a like-for-like replacement on most drums of that diameter. It's worth keeping a spare or two in your bag, since heads do wear over time and a fresh one always makes a difference. Chord make a range of drum heads in different sizes, so you can match the rest of your kit as needed.
