The M80 is engineered to control the resonance without sacrificing the brightness of the drum. One M80 has 4 different dampening settings: mild, medium, , heavy and off. Remember the M80 fits any snare drum size;(8",9,10,12,13,14 etc.) It also presents some weight on the head (more than tape, plastic etc) which helps shorten the low frequency decay while keeping the drum bright and real. Dampen in a snap or disengage even faster with the on/off feature. If you want a dead drum, this one is NOT for you. Works with triple flange hoops, die cast, angel hoops, true hoops, brass hoops, 1/4" wood, and sound arc hoops. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR S-HOOPS or Tama Arc Hoops. Leather thickness does vary between 1.5mm to 2mm. For help with this product please contact us anytime at info@SnareWeight.com. Review: These are great.

Or is it only for snares??** A: These are pretty much for any drums, although the M80 is probably best on a snare drum. They have smaller versions that work great on toms and would probably be great for timbales, too. **Q: Does this work on die-cast hoops?** A: Yeah, it’s pretty adjustable. It can “grab” the hoop edge a few ways. **Q: Can this be mounted to a snare resonant/side head? Or just the batter?** A: Due to the design it kind of relies on gravity to keep the muffler working correctly and it attaches itself to the rim. I would say that it is best suited for “batter side” only. **Q: Has anyone tried using 2 (two) of these on a snare drum? At church, we're trying to lower snare volume significantly & turn up the other mic'd items.** A: I think using a Big Phat Snare Drum Ring would accomplish this much better. It is a simple heavy "zero ring" type of thing which lowers and focuses the volume and attack of the drum. You can even get the Big Phat Snare Drum rings in 12", 13" & 14" and some have no center hole if you really need volume reduced significantly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***N on 6 December 2025* These are great.
