- Cast Bronze cymbals are individually poured and cast from raw molten metal.
- Each casting is cooled and sorted by weight for each cymbal model.
- Castings are then put through a complex sequence of heating, rolling, shaping,
hammering, and lathing techniques unique to each cymbal range.
- Cast Bronze cymbals have a rich, full-bodied sound that improves with age.
- They also have greater projection, clarity and durability than any other cymbals.
- Zildjian cast cymbals are made from the Zildjian secret alloy, which is comprised of
80% copper, 20% tin, and traces of silver.
