Hardcase HN18HC - Hard case for 18" band and orchestra cymbals

The Hardcase HN18HC is a professional hard case designed to transport and protect a pair of handheld cymbals up to 18" (≈45.7 cm) .

For logistical planning, the case has an outer diameter of approximately 518 mm and a depth of approximately 76 mm , with an approximate weight between 3.5 and 4.2 kg depending on the source and configuration.
