A patented UV-cured coating and breakthrough 10-mil film give the Evans UV1 Snare Drumhead the kind of durability that drummers dream of. If you’re tired of your coating wearing thin long before your head wears out, ourdrummers recommend the Evans UV1. Like other leading coated heads, the UV1 is made from a single ply of 10-mil film for a good balance of sensitivity and tone. But it’s made tough to resist wear from rimshots, buzzes, and swirls. The Evans UV1 also boasts Evans’ Level 360 collar, which seats the head evenly along the bearing edge for better tone and tuning. Lastly, this UV1 reverse dot drumhead features a 5mm patch on the underside of the drumhead for even more durability.

Evans’ UV1 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’ UV1 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 brushwork and buzz rolls.
