There is more than you think that goes into the design of a good beater/mallet. We have chosen specific rubber formulations that get the best sound out of the chimes, while also making the mallet feel soft to the touch, with a good grip level and a safe rounded head.
The Large Beater/Mallet is the ideal size to use with larger size chimes such at the 50mm and 76mm diameter tube chimes. The mallets are tethered by a plastic coated stainless steel cable which runs through the mallet to ensure the mallet and cable stay together as one, we also have the addition of a stainless steel flex loop to stress relieve the cable when mounted. The beater/mallet can also be supplied with a holder that also acts as the tether point and is available to mount onto flat surfaces or round posts (circa 120mm diameter).
