Vic Firth 13" Rubber Hi-Hat Mute
The Vic Firth hi-hat mute is a 13 in rubber disc that sits on the hi-hat to cut its sound. The hi-hat plays on nearly every beat, so it's often what you hear most when you practise.
What sets it apart
- 13 in size for the hi-hat
- Non-slip pure rubber
- Realistic rebound under the stick
The kit's metronome, muted
Eighths, sixteenths, foot splashes: the hi-hat never stops. Muting it often does more for household peace than muting a tom you hit twice a bar. The stick keeps a natural response, so you can drill patterns at speed.

Frequently asked questions
- How do you mute cymbals?
- The simplest way is to set a rubber mute on every cymbal, hi-hat included.
- Is there such a thing as a silent hi-hat?
- Not quite: even muted, you hear the stick on rubber. But the cymbal sound itself nearly disappears.
- My hi-hats are 14 in: will this mute work?
- Vic Firth sells it in a 13 in size and publishes no compatibility range. For 14 in hi-hats, a 14 in mute remains the safest choice.
