The Evans Hydraulic Drumhead is built for drummers who want deep, fat tone with short sustain and maximum durability. Featuring a dual-ply design with a thin layer of oil between the plies, Hydraulic heads offer a classic โ€˜70s soundโ€”controlled, punchy, and virtually free of overtones. This makes them a go-to choice for rock, funk, and other high-impact styles where focused tone and durability are essential.

Description

Fat Tone. Tight Control. Built to Last.

Evans Hydraulic heads bring a throwback vibe with a modern edge. The oil-filled space between the plies suppresses excessive ringing while producing a thick, deep tone that locks in easily with your mix. Their naturally dampened sound means you can forget external muffling and focus entirely on your playing.

Perfect for snares, toms, and even bass drums, these heads offer effortless tuning and a distinctive tone that holds up night after night. Thanks to Level 360 Technologyโ„ข, Hydraulic heads are easier to tune and deliver even, balanced contact with the bearing edge every time.

Why Choose Evans Hydraulic Drumheads?

If you want a head that delivers a powerful, retro-inspired tone with modern consistency and durability, the Evans Hydraulic is your answer. Itโ€™s trusted by drummers who want thick, short, and punchy sound thatโ€™s easy to controlโ€”on stage or in the studio.
