Vic Firth 16" Drum Mute for Floor Tom
Vic Firth 16 in floor tom mute: a large rubber disc that kills the low end without killing the stick's rebound.
The Vic Firth 16 in mute is a rubber disc for a 16 in floor tom, the largest in Vic Firth's drum mute range. It kills the low resonance that travels through walls while keeping the stick lively.
What sets it apart
- The largest drum mute in the range
- For a 16 in floor tom
- Non-slip pure rubber
The drum that carries furthest
The floor tom's low end travels the furthest, right into the next unit. A mute that matches its size covers the whole head, which a smaller disc in the centre wouldn't. Note: this is a drum mute, not a cymbal mute; Vic Firth sells its cymbal mutes separately.

Frequently asked questions
- What are drum mutes?
- Rubber discs laid on the head to deaden the sound without stopping the stick from bouncing.
- How well do drum mutes work on a floor tom?
- Well, as long as they cover the head: that's why you pick the drum's exact size, here 16 in.
- Will this mute fit a 16 in cymbal?
- No. It's a drum mute; Vic Firth makes separate cymbal mutes.
