RTOM Corporation is a drum accessory company founded in 1992 by Tom Rogers, focused on practice gear and tone-control products for drummers. The brand is best known for Moongel, a translucent, reusable self-adhesive gel pad used to dampen unwanted overtones on drumheads and cymbals. Moongel pads have become a near-ubiquitous item in studio and live drum kits, and the line has expanded into related products such as the Moongel Workout Pad.

Beyond Moongel, RTOM produces the Black Hole Practice System — low-volume mesh-style practice heads that fit over standard drums to dramatically reduce acoustic volume while preserving feel — along with LV (Low Volume) mesh heads, the DBS Dual-Surface Pad, and trigger and hardware accessories that allow drummers to convert acoustic kits into hybrid or electronic-style practice setups. The company also offers "Build Your Own e-Kit" component bundles built around its trigger and mesh-head ecosystem.

RTOM positions itself around the niche of quiet, apartment- and studio-friendly practice gear, and its products are widely distributed through retailers such as Sweetwater, Thomann, and Big Bang Distribution.

RTOM has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Practice Devices and Drum Set Accessories. Their gear is featured by 18 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Pop, and Metal. Notable users include Josh Dun, Tré Cool, and George Daniel.
