Teflon Tape for Timpani Bearing Edges
Teflon Tape for Timpani Bearing Edges
This is the teflon tape you've been looking for! This is the proper "teflon tape" to use on the bearing edges of timpani bowls when installing new heads.
1/2" wide, 36 yards long on each roll, .004" thin! One roll will do 2-3 full sets of timpani and last 2-3 head changes. See YouTube Short below for more information.
The DKP Teflon Tape is not only timpanist-tested, it's stronger and thinner than the "regular" stuff on the market. The pressure sensitive adhesive will stick better, working along with the thinner film, contouring to the bearing edge of any timpani bowl. Thinner film = better sound transfer!

“I used the DK Percussion teflon tape for the first time a couple of weeks ago on a job replacing a set of timpani heads. I was pleasantly surprised at how much easier it was to install this tape on the bowls versus the teflon bearing edge tape I had been using previously. It has just enough give to the tape to make it conform to the edge effortlessly and it's very thin. This will be what I keep in stock for my jobs now.”
