Evans B14HBG drum accessory Snare drum Drum head

Evans Hydraulic snare batter heads give you the fat, deep, short sound pioneered by rock and roll drummers in the 1970s. Made with a thin layer of oil between two plies of 7 mil film (6.5mil & 7.5mil for Hydraulic Black), these frost coated heads not only suppress unwanted overtones, but are also famously easy to tune. Hydraulics have a defined attack, short sustain, and dark tonal character—plus extra warmth, focus, and depth, thanks to Evans frost coating. This coated drumhead also features Level 360 Technology and is available in red, blue, and black.

A WELL-OILED MACHINE
For many, drumhead tuning can be a frustrating, time-consuming experience. Thankfully, the Evans Hydraulic series heads take much of the guesswork out of the dark art of tuning, all while giving you the fattest and roundest sounding tone. For those who would rather spend their time playing, the ease of tuning provided by Hydraulic heads’ unique oil injected two-ply construction allows them to do just that.
