Evans' UV2 drumheads are a game - changer! They use a patented UV - cured coating technology on two plies of reinforced 7mil film. These heads have been thoroughly tested by some of the most powerful drummers out there. They set a new bar for durability in the classic two - ply design. As a snare head, they're super versatile. As a tom head, they produce a warm, focused sound with a strong attack. Ideal for Rock and Metal music.
Using your Evans B18UV2 18 - inch UV2 coated tom drumhead is easy. First, make sure your drum is clean and dry. Then, carefully place the drumhead on the drum, aligning it properly. Use the tension rods to gradually tighten the head until you get the desired pitch and tone. When playing, don't hit the drum too hard at first. Start with gentle strokes and then you can gradually increase the force. For maintenance, wipe the drumhead with a soft, dry cloth after each use to keep it clean. Avoid getting the drumhead wet as this can damage the UV - cured coating. Store your drum in a cool, dry place when not in use to extend the life of the drumhead.
