The S Medium Thin Crash 18" is a medium-thin crash cymbal with a full, long crash that projects to the back of the room. It is the versatile main crash of the S Family, for quiet passages and choruses alike.

What sets it apart
  • Sustain rated 7, longer than the 16"
  • Strong high end and excellent projection
  • Medium-thin, versatile weight
  • Full crash, definition rated 8

A crash that sings

On the Sound Lab, the 18" rates 7 for brightness, 3 for dryness, 8 for definition and 7 for sustain. Where the 16" closes quickly, the 18" lets its crash sing: a full accent with a strong high end, which Zildjian ties to longer sustain and excellent projection.

The main crash on many kits

18" is a common size for a main crash. Its medium-thin weight lets it answer a soft stroke at the start of a song, then carry a harder-hitting chorus without switching cymbals.

Frequently asked questions
Medium or medium-thin crash?
According to Zildjian, the heavier a cymbal, the higher, louder and longer it sounds, and the more energy it takes to open. A medium-thin stays more flexible than a medium while keeping its projection.
How long does a Zildjian cymbal last?
Years, if you treat it well. Zildjian puts most breakage down to poor technique and publishes tips for protecting your cymbals, starting with care suited to the finish.
What does a crash cymbal sound like?
A short explosion followed by a wash that fades. On this 18", the explosion is full and bright, and the wash lasts long enough to mark the end of a phrase.
