Pearl's clave blocks are injection molded so they're virtually indestructible, and the solid color will never chip, fade or peel. Our exclusive CDV (Chamber Density Variation) Technology process allows all three clave blocks to be the same dimensions but still differ in pitch. An integrated swiveling mount allows a diverse range of mounting opportunities.
