If you're tired of your coating wearing thin long before your heads wear out, drummers at Sweetwater recommend the Evans UV2 series. UV2 heads are made from dual plies of breakthrough 7-mil film, each layer protected by a patented UV-cured treatment, to generate a rich tone and pre-EQed attack from your toms and snares. And at 14 mils total thickness, UV2s are made tough to resist wear from flams, rimshots, buzzes, and brush swirls. The UV2s also boast Evans' Level 360 collar, which seats the head evenly along the bearing edge for better tone and tuning. If you're looking for extra longevity from your 2-ply coated heads, then you'll definitely want to check out the Evans UV2 Fusion Drumhead Pack.

Evans' UV coating may be the next step in drumhead evolution





We drummers hate changing our heads. And why shouldn't we? It's time consuming, messy, and above all, stressful ? stressful to spend so much time fine-tuning and damping a head to get a sound you love, all to be undone by a dent, split, or old age. But Evans' UV coating promises to be the secret to a head that withstands the test of time. The UV-cured finish offers protection against damage, flaking, chipping, and wearing, all the while giving you longer-lasting sensitivity for brush work and buzz rolls.
