Vic Firth 16–18-Inch Cymbal Mute

When to choose it
If a 16- or 18-inch cymbal is the part you need to cover, this individual rubber overlay keeps the purchase focused on that piece. Read the selected size range before choosing. An individual hi-hat version or a larger cymbal model serves a different place on the kit.
The rubber panel covers part of the playing surface. Check where the stick contacts the cymbal in your usual pattern after fitting it. If your part regularly moves across a crash and a larger ride, measure both surfaces and decide whether you need two separate overlays or a pack that names both sizes.
