Product information
Protect your pan. Protect your investment.
Steel pans may have humble origins, but the finished instruments are carefully hand-crafted and finely tuned creations. A knock to the skirt, playing surface or underside can affect intonation and voicing, so proper protection is essential whether you're heading to a gig, transporting instruments between rehearsals or simply need to store your pans safely.
The Percussion Plus Hammer Series Lead / Tenor Steel Pan Case provides robust, reliable protection in a practical and easy-to-handle design.
Made from tough, moulded ABS plastic, the case features 4cm of protective foam padding, with a recessed section around the top of the instrument to make setting up and packing away quick and hassle-free without compromising protection. It comfortably accommodates pans up to 23.5" in diameter, with a maximum bowl depth or skirt length of 10".
Three sturdy carry handles are positioned around the upper third of the case, making it easy to lift and carry from different positions. The flattened base also allows the case to be stored vertically, helping to save valuable space in a classroom, rehearsal room, home or in transit.
A heavy-duty webbing strap with oversized clips keeps everything securely closed and ready for transport.
Whether you're a gigging musician, school, steel band or serious collector, the Hammer Series case is a dependable way to protect your pan wherever it goes.
No corners cut. No chances taken.
Please note Priced per case.

Often incorrectly referred to as steel drums, the whole instruments vibrate to make their characteristic Caribbean sound which means they are properly classified as 'idiophones', the same family as cymbals.
Panyard have been manufacturing exceptional instruments since 1990 and the mid-range Percussion Plus Hammer Series contains the best quality affordable pans in the world.
Constructed in USA from specially made steel, they are then tuned and finished by experienced constructors. They are a great option for school as students are permitted to experiment using different playing techniques so they can experience the different methods in which the Hammer series drums can be played.
Did you know?
Steel pans are relatively young instruments that have become phenomenally popular in recent years, particularly with school music departments and events organisers. They originated in Trinidad and Tobago in the 1930s and are traditionally recycled from 55 gallon chemical containers.
Both steel pans and steel drums refer to the same thing. Steel pan players will often use rolls, which are rapid fire playing of the same note many times to create a more continuous sound. This allows for stimulated playing of longer notes that maintain their strength rather than decaying such as a single hit would produce.
