18" STRATUS DRY CRASH

This 18" Stratus Dry Crash delivers lightning-quick response with a tight, controlled feel that cuts through dense mixes without washy sustain. The extra-thin construction sits light in hand while generating a dark, textured attack that serves as an aggressive accent cymbal in modern drum setups. Built for drummers who demand precision and definition over wash.

Tone & Character

The deep hammering creates a textured, trash-accented attack with a dark, low tonal profile that sits perfectly in tight, dry playing environments. Extremely short sustain ensures clean articulation and allows fast, stacked crashes without muddiness, making this cymbal ideal for dynamic, controlled playing styles.

Construction & Response

The extra-thin weight class enables the lightning-quick response this crash is engineered for, while the B20 bronze material and polished raw finish on the lathed bottom deliver the focused tone character. At 1224g, this cymbal balances responsiveness with enough mass to cut through.
