Zildjian 5A Nylon DIP Hickory Drumsticks with Black Grip Coating, Nylon Tip
The Zildjian 5A Nylon DIP combines two options in one pair: the oval nylon tip, with its crisp attack, and the black DIP coating on the grip area, which keeps the stick from slipping. A 5A for long shows played fast and loud.
What sets it apart
- Oval nylon tip
- Black DIP coating on the grip
- Measurements of the best-selling 5A
Two options that complement each other
The nylon tip works at the end of the stick, on the sound; the DIP works at the other end, in the hand. One gives a harder attack and a lively rebound, the other a slightly tacky surface that lets you loosen your grip. Together, they keep the stick precise from the first song to the last.

Frequently asked questions
- Can you get a nylon tip and a DIP grip together?
- Yes, that's this pair: Zildjian's 5A with an oval nylon tip and black DIP on the grip area.
- Why use nylon tip drumsticks?
- For a sharper attack and a livelier rebound, especially on cymbals. Zildjian notes that it's a matter of preference.
- Is the whole stick black?
- The black is the DIP, applied to the grip area. Zildjian doesn't describe any black paint on the rest of the stick.
